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. The most popular seem to be lighthearted, clever little truths, hidden in daily life.
Here are some examples to inspire your own showerthoughts: 1
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- No politics
- If your topic is in a grey area, please phrase it to emphasize the fascinating aspects, not the dramatic aspects. You can do this by avoiding overly politicized terms such as "capitalism" and "communism". If you must make comparisons, you can say something is different without saying something is better/worse.
- A good place for politics is c/politicaldiscussion
- If you feel strongly that you want politics back, please volunteer as a mod.
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct
If you made it this far, showerthoughts is accepting new mods. This community is generally tame so its not a lot of work, but having a few more mods would help reports get addressed a little sooner.
Whats it like to be a mod? Reports just show up as messages in your Lemmy inbox, and if a different mod has already addressed the report the message goes away and you never worry about it.

So, using a 16” pizza as a “xl” size.
PapaJohns XL cheese: 3000 calories Dominos XL cheese: 2980 calories
I powerlift 3-4 days a week and run 30-60k a week depending on how many days I lifted.
If I ate JUST one of those a day as a 6’ tall man I’d still gain weight and want to die.
When I was 20 I could easily pound down a full Papa John’s pizza and stay skinny as a rail. Nowadays I eat one cookie after dinner and my body permanently incorporates it into my mass, never to be released again.
Age and biology are big factors here. For me to gain, at the pace you go weekly, I'd have to make myself sick eating enough to keep up.
3000 calories a day is a lot my dude, that’s a lot of food being talked about.
I dont know yhe other commentor, but i am pretty much permanantly poor because i have to eat about 2800 just to maintain my weight. I literally cannot afford to feed myself the massive amount of food it requires for my body to simply maintain.
Im 30, 145 lbs, 6'3", and it only takes my body about 45 minutes for food to go in one end and out the other, whereas its supposed to be closer to 8 hours
