A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics
    • 3.1) NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
    • 3.2) Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
    • 3.3) Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

You're right, I'm 27 in a new country, and I meet people at meetups events (they very often takes place in a bar), so I'm bound to find people that are only interested in getting wasted. I've been meaning to pick some hobbies and find friends this way, I should get to it.

I was gonna say the best way to meet new friends is to pick up a hobby, but then you already said it. Go get em.
