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

Later generations will have less attachment to how things were when they grew up because everything changes a lot faster. (lemmy.world)

Or at the very least less common attachment because they grew up outside of a monoculture.

I think that this is entirely dependent on the amount of money you're willing to expend. I'm sure that you can buy things that are much better or at least as well built as their counterparts from the past.

Where can I find this modern day 25-year-bathroom-rug?

Oh I'm sure you can get one at some fancy furniture store. It will cost you about as much as half a year of food but in theory, you can get one.
