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

Food is the only physical addiction that you can't quit for life or it will kill you. You don't need beer or cocaine or meth to live, you can live a full happy life without any of those. You can't live without food.

We are also fighting decades of food science working non stop to make the cheapest shittiest food possible.

If I could quit it cold turkey I would.

But I can't, and it sucks
