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

I was just thinking that you could loosely look at each day being the four seasons. Morning is spring, afternoon is summer, evening is fall, and night is winter.

EDIT: Seems a lot of people are having difficulty understanding a loose comparison.

Except here, it's just summer all around the clock

Early morning is winter, midday is spring, late evening to midnight is fall. There's a lag time between the times of day and temperature just like there is with the solstices. Gotta overcome the heat capacity.

I like the loose compression very much. Up vote for you!

You've never been to Texas. It's still 90°F at midnight. It never cools down.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

What do you mean that is cooled down.

Can someone explain why this is being downvoted?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Nope. Humanity will always be an enigma.

Ah yes, winter, when i walk around in mt shorts and shirt and it's still too humid and warm to exist

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

That's a pretty cool way of thinking about it
