I accidentally visited a lovecraftian nightmare realm in my sleep and learned an alien meme. It goes clockwise. The first label is “for” and it shows you something what the meme is about. The next three labels are “forever”. The first forever is supposed to be sort of sarcastic and commonly in a making fun of boomer chicken soup for the soul kind of way. The second forever depicts " what an asshole would do if he found out there was nothing stopping him". The third forever is also sort of sarcastic and got the most perfunctory explanation but basically it’s about time. So I made one where the for is dragons, the first forever is earth (but depicted as dying of global warming), the second forever is I think slavery, and the third forever is the concept of mathematics.
In the dream I visited a weird church, a weird casino, and a weird buffet I think. I commited heresy in the church and then had to gather up way too much stuff before leaving, including a weird Steam gaming device. I left and was headed through a valley when I realized the entire place I was in was a valley surrounded by mountains and there was no way to exit before sunset. So I called the tourist department and they said I’d need an exit passport. I asked them if it was safe after dark and they said certainly not, and advised me to shelter behind one of the white doors in a cliff face, except for the unsafe one which had a specific label but the call dropped before I could hear. So I sheltered behind a door and there was a switch in there that said sickness with a hastily scrawled note saying DO NOT TURN OFF, so I sat there until the government apparently kicked me back awake.
Dreamed that I was taking spills off my bike but I was the best to ever do it. The best to eat shit. I’d fall off the bike and rotate perfectly in the air to take the fall on the back of my shoulder like a gymnast doing a monkey roll. Everyone was so impressed. I experienced natural slow mo while twisting and flipping and never got hurt even though it was super scary
Dreamed I was working at a makeup store in Israel for Black women that was only open one day a year that was managed by the Mario Bros (Super Show version) and the store was robbed at gunpoint by some kids who were actually paid by the store’s owner who looked like actor Alan Dale for the insurance money. And they took my money so I couldn’t get back home so I blackmailed Mario with a video of the kids and Alan Dale shaking hands to give me a check for exactly one hundred dollars so I could fly back to America. The sheer disappointment on Lou Albano’s face…
Last night I dreamed I found a white kitten who had wings instead of front legs, and sort of walked around on it’s back legs like a bird. I think it was too young to be able to fly. When I came back from somewhere else, the kitten had run off and gotten into mischief so I had to go searching for it in other people’s yards. Then I found out from a Star Wars comic that the kitten would eventually grow up to be a woman with blue hair who was apparently a fairly popular EU character or something
Dreamed a group of the white/light skinned leisure class of a south american country were being callous and environmentally destructive by livestreaming an adventure expedition into untouched native land, wherein they fucked with capbybara like creatures and littered everywhere, and then at they end of the livestream they all got killed by four natives who had transformed themselves into giant bears.
The main dream I remember from last night was all about me fretting over our cat. Lily and I had moved into a house with some other people and they had cats too, and I was worried at first that our cat wouldn’t get along with them, but then he ended up running around with them and cat-wrestling and having fun and things and I was very happy about that. Then before long he needed to have surgery for some reason, and although the surgery went okay, he didn’t wake up from the anaesthesia when he was supposed to. Earlier in the day I had gone fishing in the ocean and caught a big octopus I wanted to feed to him, and the vets cut some of its legs up into small pieces and put them near his nose to try to entice him back to consciousness, but he had no reaction, and then I became intensely distraught and afraid for a while that he would never wake up. But finally he started to flick the end of his tail up and down like he sometimes does when he’s lying in the sun, and then he started moving his limbs and head and rolled onto his feet and came and rubbed against my legs purring and I was overwhelmingly relieved. Soon after I noticed that someone had put a bunch of penne and marinara sauce in his food bowl and I was like, “What? Was this on purpose? What’s happening??” Then I woke up.
I barely slept last night but had my first dream in forever.
There was a Flintstones special that featured a big way too scary earthquake scene where a red headed caveman rescues an elderly woman by managing to get one of those dramatic one handed grips on the ledge as both are falling into the abyss. As he’s pulling both of them up, the woman thanks him by name… Henry Jetson.
I dreamed of a Nick Cage movie about riding a greyhound bus driven by a q anon sovereign citizen sociopath across a fascist united states. The bus driver runs over someone, then says they were antifa because they were wearing cold weather clothes including a mask. He has a prosthetic arm. There’s a prostitute who is marked as a live animal being shipped as property from one casino to another. Nick Cage has flashbacks to conversations with an estranged daughter. There is a tense scene where he has to find a way back onto the bus as it tries to leave without him. Eventually he sets the bus on fire.
had another richard kiel dream. i downloaded a goldeneye romhack which just added “Dr. Kolos” from the Human Duplicators as an alt skin for Jaws, the textures were cut out of blurry screencaps from the movie and awkwardly grafted onto the jaws model
There was a lot more to this dream that I hopefully can recall at some point…I think maybe it involoved Austin strip malls…but in any case, before I woke up, I had blasted off from Earth on a space shuttle to the Moon as an astronaut, with several others I didn’t know. Inside, the shuttle was surprisingly roomy, and laid out like a small building with a large film studio inside it and several side rooms. However, this was kind of an awkward environment to float around in with no gravity. At one point, several insects floated into my mouth, and I decided to just eat them, but one of them was a small worm that tasted very harsh and acrid. I began to worry that it might be poisonous, but there was nowhere on the shuttle I could feasibly spit it out without causing problems in the weightless environment. While I was trying to figure out what action to take next, I woke up.
Lots of dreams about cats lately for some reason. In the one from last night i had a white and brown calico kitten that looked a little like the turkish van i had as a kid but with shorter hair.
I was trying to keep an eye on it while someone was talking to me about something or other, i wasn’t paying attention. I noticed a large hawkish bird land next to the cat and i started getting worried. Eventually i got frustrated and had to shut the person up and then saw that both the cat and hawk had disappeared.
Then i started to panic and ran into a forest where every tree had a hawk nest and an almost identical cat held prisoner, pleading for rescue. I wanted to save all the cats but needed to save my own first.
When i found the right tree, i tried to climb up, but then the tree inexplicably turned into a big stack of pre-packaged apples in a sort of unwieldy supermarket display. It was really unstable and kept collapsing, causing the scene to reset each time so i could try again.
When i got to the top, the cat was nowhere to be seen. At this point i had no idea what to do, and woke up, leaving the cat’s fate forever unresolved
Another car dream. Took over $200 to fill up the tank, and I was commenting to the gas station attendant that I’m sure the car was fine, but I had no idea how to use it. It looked like some kind of Porsche. So he rattled off a couple car stats for a car he thought might suit me better, and I said I had no idea what he just asked me.
Undeterred he picks up a shovel and walks behind the station to start digging car parts out of the ground with the intention of restoring them. I watch him out of politeness because I know he’s going to build a nice car, and I won’t be able to tell the difference.
My dream from last night seemed to take place in what I think was supposed to be a first person dungeon crawler set in a modern day setting revolving around something like a zombie apocalypse or demon invasion or something. I think there was some kind of ruins or ground zero area that the party was going to travel into for fortune and glory. Most of the dungeon areas seemed to be abandoned IKEAs and a Disney themed shopping mall.
The first portion of the game was mostly just introducing all the main characters, maybe sort of like Dragon Quest IV. These characters included a koala who was the CEO of a weapons manufacturer whose interest in the dungeon was in procuring materials for his business. Then there was a world famous social media influencer pomeranian who gets driven around in a fancy red convertible by his rich owners. I assume he was in it for the likes and online clout. There was a whole bunch of other characters but most of them were standard RPG adventurers.
The character who I think was the most important seemed to be some kind of non-corporeal floating mass of energy, or sometimes like a giant fungal mold. They seemed to be able to change shape and substance at will, and had some kind of ability to expand and envelope the battle area, causing some kind of special effect or changing the ‘mode’ of the characters.
I kept waking up last night but whenever I went back to sleep I seemed to go back to this dream, but only that last character was present and because they kept changing it was hard to keep track of what they were supposed to be.
found myself in Baltimore at the Inner Harbor. a triangular formation of jet fighters flew out of the National Aquarium and made streaks of green clouds across the sky. some people started throwing up. I ducked into an empty theatre (inside looked like The Egyptian in Seattle) where random images and faces flashed onscreen, Tim Curry chanting “Oriana Fallaci” in orgasmic tones making the strongest impression of these
i had a dream that i was back in los angeles and telling people that i was going “los angeles mode” again, and then explaining that “los angeles mode” meant “sunglasses at night, pleather jacket”, then i had multiple dreams after that where i woke up and told a different person that i had a dream about going “los angeles mode”
