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.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Posts must be original/unique
- Be good to others - no bigotry - including racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, or xenophobia
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

I like this turn of phrase
It is exactly like that. A little warm secret fire in your heart, something that's yours and brings you comfort but slowly fucking burns everything else to ash.
And just like fire, not every fire has to be destructive. If you use the right fuels and keep it under control, you'll have a safe fireplace.
I'd say by the time you can call it an addiction, the fire is already out of control
Very much obviously. I didn't account for that part.
Addiction is never good. I mentally used fire as a metaphor for medicine
Like that, for forests
