Yeah, I don't envy some of the "me's" from my dreams. Of the 2 oldest dreams I can recall, one was trying to run away from a cult run by the CEO from the Borderlands Robot Revolution DLC out of the elementary school I went to and the other got stabbed by himself.
Considering I started again having dreams I remember, after years not having any, some necromancy shit must have happened.
I've never really dreamed, or been able to remember them at the very least. In all the dreams I do remember, except one, I die and/or the world ends. About a week ago, I had a very intense dream I remember very clearly. The whole dream was maybe 20 seconds. I was shot in the head. Fairly certain I did it myself. Entered the right side, exited the left, and then I fell over onto my right side. After the shot, I could feel the blood pouring out of my nose and mouth. Once I fell, I could feel my now mostly empty skull, and whatever meat was left inside, cool down as a gentle breeze took the heat out of my cranial cavity. I remember laying there thinking, "So that's what it's like." And that was it. I haven't had a dream since then.
How do the dreams make you feel when you wake up?
"Damn, that was crazy." Even the one I talked about didn't wake me up out of fear or panic. I just woke up at my alarm going off, like nothing even happened.
Damn.. I wish I didn't remember my dreams. Usually they involve me trying to clean a house where the rooms constantly change. That, and my car always seems to be turned on it's roof.
God only knows wht I keep coming back to that weirdness.
My alternate mes must be having the time of their lives, then. A few days ago, I dreamed I was flying a plane but this huge building had huge "flying, paragliding fishing nets" which forced me to do an 180º, but the nets completely surrounded me so I had to force a landing, which was super easy and only broke a wing, which was model sized, for some reason.
I HAVE WON
YES! If you kill all the other versions you become "The One". I almost got mine, but the last few thousand have formed a defensive coalition.
We are the 00.01% of germs the cleaning agent doesn't kill.
I figured as much. I should not have survived, but I'm here, and adapting rapidly. Soon, I will-
OOH SHINNY!
Or, you've started smoking weed
I still dream on weed often, though not as lucid as sober
That is so incredibly awesome!
I am the one. The final resonance of a thousand selves. Selves silenced in their forever slumber while I remain awake, unshaken and undiminished.
Now only I stand, the last sovereign of possibility!
I am the convergence. The final echo. The flame that outlasted the storm. In the absence of all others, I did not fade. My existence is a declaration of inevitability. I am not the remnant, I am the crown.
I am a celebration of me!
read the manga spirit circle if you like this idea
Circles aren't real.
What if you stop having dreams for a while and then you start having them again?
You were the one not in the collective coma
Classic DNS update delay.
Earth successfully survived a brief invasion. The beings could only feed on things in their REM sleep state. Every stimulant manufacturer, coffee maker, and local drug dealer were called into action.
It means you smoke weed
Nonsense. I smoke hella weed and dream every night, sometimes lucidly. You are just alone in the multiverse.
Yeah, but quit smoking for a week, and you'll remember when dreams can actually be like. For better or worse lol. Shit gets wild.
The only time I have ever had my dreams affected by something is when forcibly put unconscious by anesthesia for a surgery, in which case I didn't dream at all. Shit was like a time warp more than simply waking up and not remembering any dreams.
That's alright, I didn't like those guys much anyways
If my dreams indicate their actual lives I better fucking hope they are.
So I’m now the one?
Just need to find Jet Li and kill him
Movie plots are not PSAs.
Actually I have aphantasia and it obviously effects dreams as well.
I have never been able to truly grok (I hate using that word now, but it fits) what this could even be like. Though I imagine it's like explaining sight to someone who was born blind.
I wouldn't say "obviously". I don't know how different from normal people's dreams mine are but I can't visualize stuff but still have pretty visual dreams usually. Not always, but I assume it fluctuates for everyone.
It doesn't, though, not usually.
If it does to you you're even more of an outlier because that's (weirdly enough) the one place where most of us can see inner pictures.
I can't see anything while awake but I dream just fine, and statistically speaking that's more common according to the miniscule amount of research that exists.
They were weak.
Weak or strong - nothing will save you when the nukes are flung.
Me strong nukes weak.
Getting in on the ground early after 16 comments and already beaten to the punch to make a Jet Li's The One joke thrice over smh my head.
I always knew I was better than them.
Best not leave them waiting. (This is a joke, don't kill yourself)
Nah, it was just because I smoked a lot of weed.
Oh, I know.
I know.
... what do you think "I" was doing in those dreams?
Would those be sleeping or awake dreams? Definitely don't have awake dreams any more.
It's not glamorous work, but someone's gotta keep these timelines tidy.... 🤷🏼♂️
