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

Except "luna" is latin for "Moon", which means that in many neolatin languages the problem is still there. Probably Selene would be good for every language, She's the whatever goddess of the whateverness of our Moon or whatever
Except when Latin was spoken actively there was only one such body with the name “Luna”, so it’s a proper noun.
