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

Oh boy. That's what I like to see after a year unemployed from software.

I wish you the best, I'm looking outside software in general. I used to offer to help people find employment in games but now I just can't. I've seen too many people broken by it.

I do hope you find something, anything, so you can continue to survive.

Yeah, I was adjacent to the game industry for a minute and am aware of how much churn business execs force on developers. Good luck yourself in your search
