    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.

      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 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!

      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.

      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.

      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.
