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

500 calories a day

Are you certain?! That's concentration camp calories if one isn't moving, at all. Hell, I'd think your brain alone burns that much. I'm not calling bullshit, I'd really like to understand.

I am calling bullshit. Ain't no way she's gaining or even maintaining weight on 500 calories a day. A proper assessment of daily caloric intake is necessary.
