DREAM THREAD: Thread for weaving together a beautiful tapestry from all your dreams

dreamed that one of my dads tom waits albums came on a special Enhanced CD that when you put it on a computer would open up a proto walking simulator abt walking around listening to audio monologues in a 3d cave. and i was like How Come Nobody Is Talking About This :angry: but as the game progressed you had to like get chased by an evil jaguar and jump on its awkward collision box to get out of a hole and i realised that the game was bullshit

My dreams always come in pairs because of my weird sleep schedule

  1. I dreamed that I went gun shopping at some kind of indoor flea market or shabby department store. A wizened but somewhat glam saleswoman approached and she was holding a rifle wrapped in plastic. I asked what was up with it and she said “oh I don’t know why they made this thing so long it’s so awkward to shoulder.” I asked if I could try and managed to pull it off well enough. Then I told her I was in the market for a lever action rifle and she showed me one chambered in some ridiculously oversized round. She took me to where I could fire a few test shots, which wasn’t any kind of a gun range, just a box with an opening on one side. Whatever lined the inside of the box managed to contain the bullets and most of the noise. I woke up before I could try the gun out.

  2. I was at an acquaintance’s house tending to their lawn/garden while they were away, mostly watering. While I was about my business a voice came through on their home security cam, and started trying to give me directions. I realized I didn’t know who it was and tried to find out their relationship to my acquaintance. They kept trying to make me do things, and at one point I said I wasn’t going to follow their instructions because they kept dodging my questions about their identity. They said, “You’re just a copycat” which Meant Something to me in this dream because it rattled me badly enough that I immediately got on a bicycle and jetted out of there

Dreamed there was a little orange kitten hanging around a courtyard that, if you did a specific gesture, would run up and pounce on your face.
People came from all around to get pounced on.
Someone asked the cat what it’s name was and it made a noise that sounded like ‘Viper’.

Then Viper became internet famous and that YouTuber MoistKritical made a video about him: “viper situation is insane” or something

watched furiosa on a plane a few days ago and sick last night had a drawn out fever dream abt needing to construct a full scale war rig out of balsa wood, where every time i turned over represented another section of the truck. i kept waking up and looking at my sleeping partner and feeling grouchy that they werent helping me and only muzzily being like oh yeah i guess sleep is the main thing i’m trying to do

I was a consultant or a reporter or something hanging out on a couch in a small studio as Linkin Park and Metallica recorded some sort of collaboration album, but it was a big mess. But none of the members were recognizable like they were all session replacement people while the remaining original folks were just corporate figureheads cashing checks and not actually doing the work. The producer was having people play through all these small janky looking and busted sounding amps, and one guy even had a home stereo system that was spray painted yellow in lieu of an amp. At one point someone got clocked in the head with a practice amp “accidentally” (it looked very deliberate but I guess picking up an amp and swinging it overhead was just the guy’s tic or something and he didn’t mean it) and the injured guy keeled over on the couch next to me. Someone told me I should rub his head, but I said that would probably just hurt more at this point. Nevertheless I tried gently, and he ran away. I thought to myself not to make any jokes about therapists and some kind of monster. I ended up giving one of the generic linkin park people a pep talk about how with all these big names in a small space there’s bound to be elbows bumping up against each other and you need to embrace that in the process.

Then my alarm went off

I dreamed I was recognized as a notorious edgelord troll at a party for artists and got the shit kicked out of me. I feel like I have real brain damage from the dream.

I dreamed that I was trying to remember the name of a video game, it was on the tip of my tongue. I was browsing through lists of top video games, some as improbable as the great ttrpg writer James Wallis’s top 100 Commodore 64 games. I woke up feeling like the game I dreamt must exist but I cannot describe it (those details evaporated as I woke from my dream) only that it was an influence on ultima underworld and later, arx fatalis. I will recognize it when I see it.

i had to break into one of many giant sky ice pyramids from near the top of the pyramid and then work my way to the bottom to destroy the queen of sky ice pyramids, so i got dropped off by like a helicopter on the outside of one, above the clouds. i just slid out a big loose ice brick from the pyramid like jenga and jumped in

there was a guard i tried to sneak around but he saw me so we fought and i threw him over the railing and then another guard heard all the commotion so he came at me with a tazer but i snatched his walkie talkie and hit him over the head over a dozen detailed visceral times til every time i hit him in the skull i could feel it caving in or being soft and squishy, i broke his skull to pieces, but he just looked at me while patting all the soft broken parts of his bleeding skull and said ‘wheres my injury helmet’ then just walked away. i yelled IM COMING FOR YOU into the bloody walkie talkie and kept making my way down

i platformed to the bottom like momo (double jumping and flipping between platforms) and when i got there a woman in a purple and blue and sparkily fairy dress (yes. a five star nikki dress basically) pranced up to me and with the most shrill voice was like IVE BEEN WAITING FOR YOU I GOTTA GET READY FOR THE PARRTTYYY and when i looked closer it was kris jenner and i got so scared i woke up

Dreamt of playing some kind of Symphony of the Night clone and one of the enemies liked to drive the player character into the ground like a nail which was of course quite vexing when other baddies were around.

Was at my job taking an order over the phone for one of our websites that sold animated gifs. We had like 40 total, mostly in the categories of Alien, Erotic, and Satan. The caller’s teenage daughter, who wanted more Satanic gifs, and the grandmother of the family, who wanted more erotic gifs, kept interrupting, and the caller kept revising her order. At one point marketing power cycled the building, and only let us know after all our computers turned off. I apologized to the customer, and knew that by the time I had my computer back up she would have changed her order again.
