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 best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.

I doubt future generations will have “basement dwellers” because none of us can afford to own basements. (lemmy.world)

“Basement dwellers” implies parents with multi level houses. I feel like the kid living with their parents for a long time will become more of a thing but they’ll be lucky to have the privacy and space of a whole basement.

And so I say, basement dwellers? In this economy?

Nonono, you do it wrong. You pool together to rent a small part of a basement for a short time. During that time you build a hidden entrance to your own basement under the other basement and in 200-300 years you have your own basement. And evolution will make the job easier as it will make you smaller to fit better into the basement.

Duh! Do we have to explain everything to you people?
