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

You don't know he's not depressed. Remember Robin.

I thought the depression rumor was debunked? Somebody correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't Robin get a dementia diagnosis, and thus chose to go out on his own terms, rather than slowly rot away?

If not dementia, it was a similarly debilitating condition. Wanted to dip on his own terms before he became a husk of himself.

RIP Rob, you were the GOAT.

It was Lewy Body Dementia, I remember because my grandma had it. It’s non-hereditary thankfully, but just as debilitating as Alzheimer’s.
