Notes -
I literally had a dream last night that Hlynka was unbanned.
In general I’ve never found dreams to be particularly interesting, my own or anyone else’s, and I’ve always been puzzled over why they held such fascination for certain thinkers like Freud. Usually their contents are either nonsensical, or they’re connected to waking events/thoughts in a relatively straightforward way.
Have you had any interesting dreams lately? What do you think about dreams in general?
I've long had a weird relationship with dreams because I became a lucid dreamer at a pretty young age.
I have a triggering scenario that always got me lucid dreaming: I'd be underwater holding my breath, but I'd feel myself breathing somehow.
I have sleep apnea, so I probably ended up in all these dreams cuz my brain/body was trying to relate to an experience where I'm low on oxygen.
I lucid dream far less with a sleep apnea machine. And I'm mostly happy with that.
I've also had some predictive dreams / deja vu. Usually of mundane scenarios. Main memorable one was dreaming of my future wife and having the name correct, but its a common name. But office, classroom, kid raising situations have come up too.
I would like dreams to be more meaningful, but they are probably mostly random firings and rearrangements of existing memories and sensations.
