You can totally play Tetris in your head

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.
My favorite tetris fact is that it may help with PTSD flashbacks. Link for the curious.
Since learning about this, I have decided to keep the game installed on my phone in case something wild happens (I'm thinking after witnessing an accident or something). It is sort of comforting to have a scientifically backed up mental strategy that is easily accessible, even if it's not a lot. I gather that tetris keeps the part of your brain responsible for looping images occupied with, well, tetris.
