    I had a dream once where a woman grabbed my head, looked me in the eye, and said “when you wake up I won’t exist.”

    Freaked me out

      I had a dream where I was in a group project back in high school, and I was apologizing to all of my group mates because I knew it was a dream and I was gonna wake up soon and leave them with all the work.

            I hope he did, because if he didn’t then that means we’re inside his dream too.

            In which case we need to make sure he never wakes up.

                  It’s basically the religion in the Elder Scrolls games (Skyrim, Oblivion, Morrowind).

                  Ultimately above the deadra and all that, there is the sleeper. There’s a “dream sleeve” between their reality and the sleeper. If you can be spiritually free enough you can rise above and into the dream sleeve. Then you become like a God.

              My favorite quote:

              Everything we see or seem is but a dream within a dream.

              Edgar Allen Poe

              Nah dude I lost my purse on my bike ride today, then had to backtrack which made me run out of battery 30 miles into a 40 all because I was a dingus and didn’t secure it properly like I usually do. Now I have a sunburn and my legs ache and I was having a nice ride without moving my toothpicks. Wake him the fuck up.

              It is nice to have something trivial to complain about though.

              Has anyone found an exploit, by the way? I can see our fore-hacker Hitler killed millions trying to hang the system, or Musk accumulating money trying to overflow the registers, to no avail. I mean, it has to have vulnerabilities if it’s a dream, which is just a simulation.

            Maybe that’s why right wingers are so anti-woke, they’re worried they’re part of someone else’s dream …

          I’d argue that non-existence is far less troublesome than the reverse.
