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
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- 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.
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

You can also go 3D. January 8, February 5, March 4, April 8 would be 4 in a stack.
thank goodness i can see time in 3d now. this wont end badly.
Seeing time in 3D, mayhaps like a Time Cube?
Holy shit, what an opener, and then the second paragraph is the perfect punchline. I think the wiki editors knew exactly what they were doing.
huh? please elaborate. The opening paragraph of the time cube article appears normal
It is entertaining.
What if we add a 4th dimension with years?
Sure. That would be 4 days in a… well stack is already taken, so what do we call that?
Maybe a box, or a jumbo stack
Four days in a box. It’s settled then.
That’s the third dimension of time. You playing 6D chess over here
If you include multiple years, you can add one more dimension.
That's only moving in the third dimension without moving in any other.
If you have movement in all 3 dimensions, you get January 1, February 6, March 13, April 25.
Thats diagonally and stacked.
Diagonal for the win!
