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:
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.

Yeah, but that's India...

Counter question to answer it,
What would they do with my hard earned money that's I my drawer when government replaces banknotes with new ones.
Its a process that slowly removes money from circulation. It's like swapping the water of a fish pond. You take some out, you add some back

Yeah they just change it out? I used to work cash in hand for a takeaway and I'd have to put hundreds into my account every few weeks.
