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

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. 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.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

Imagine what it’s like for a microbial spore. It’s like landing on an alien planet ripe for exploration and exploitation.

Cats are (at least genetically) used to much bigger and more open areas. So no, a house probably doesnt feel that huge like the relative bodysize would suggest.

Putting your head lower to the ground is and crawling around is trippy as hell.

Something tells me that wasn't the only reason you were tripping

no, even a mantion is small in comparison to a cat. cats were developed to rule over entire kingdoms in the beginning ages.
