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.

  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

Remember when the body washes contained literal micro plastics and were advertised as such? (sh.itjust.works)

Is bar soap really considered old fashioned now?

[โ€“] bluewing@lemm.ee 2 points 7 months ago

In a tongue in cheek manor - kind of. If you go actually look at the shelves when you go to buy some soap, you will find all kinds of liquid and foaming soaps/body washes that promise all kinds of things to make you cleaner and more radiant and smell better. And those tend to populate the eye level shelves to make them easier to notice. And the bar soaps are tend to be on the lower shelves. Making them less noticeable and a bit harder to see.
