This post was inspired by a dream misadventure I had last night where I was just minding my own business getting gophers out of the rice field, then suddenly on the intercom/announcements (which I did not expect to have in my dream, since I was outside, not in a building), a voice said “attention, this is a representative of the fediverse speaking… going into effect today, dreamland itself, err, everyone’s dreams, are now a part of the fediverse; that is all, happy floating on cloud nine” and then suddenly a bunch of Stalingrad ninjas popped out of nowhere and ambushed me (yeah, how would you react if that’s the case). So I guess I’m not even safe from everyone in my sleep.
I dreamt I was in a building with my mother and siblings, and we saw a statue of Hephaestus, then my mother took my youngest sibling to the toilets, and then went through the eating area to see Hephaestus. I followed her, and when we got to the counter, we asked a worker to see Hephaestus, and he laughed at us, since Hephaestus doesn’t exist. Then I said that it wouldn’t be irrational for him to exist, as I was dreaming, which the waiter agreed to. Then we had some chips, and I ate all the chips because I was the only real person there, everyone else were figments of my imagination and wouldn’t derive any benefit from them.
Damn I wanna see Hephaestus in a dream!
