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
- NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
- Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
- 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-----

As others have said, you wear shoes, keeping your feet soft. There was a time in my life I walked everywhere, and did it barefoot. My feet became pretty well calloused and protected, to the point I could walk on gravel no problem. Even hot pavement wasn't too bad.
What life were you living where you walked a lot barefoot?
If they're anything like my tree hugging mom, then just for kicks I guess.
Kicks without kicks.
And don’t get me started on keratinized dicks
Yes, please don’t start.
Correct
Not OP, but I didn’t wear shoes as a young man living in a beach town, surfing, and just chillaxing.
I would love to see a picture of your paw feet 😂
I have since re-shod myself for many years, losing my rough pads. Unfortunately, I did not take any feet pics in that phase of my life.
