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.

I can imagine the "will you be using the mobile app?" question to get cheaper food is going to devolve into the Mark of the Beast and someday no one will be able to buy anything without using the apps (lemmy.world)

Can someone explain the "Mark of the Beast" thing?

It seems commonly mentioned by US posters, but I'm not from the US and have no context. I know it's a Bible thing, but I'm always seeing it on posts that have nothing to do with religion, like this one, and I'm lost on what it could mean here.
