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.

Would've appreciated some links to the recent studies referred here.
And that's very basic level of communication. I'm not sure we can really compare it higher life forms.
Fungi are an entirely different ballgame. They are way too different from both animal and plants.
I'll try to find the papers to reference them proper, but take that with a grain of salt, because I'll probably forget or fail to do so.
And yeah, the ones I've linked so far are very surface level, but it does however prove the existence of something that isn't all too well understood yet, much less known of by a overwhelming majority.
So I try to spread awareness to it. Better if I had the links, I agree, but alas.
