  • I have lucid dreams and I get excited when it happens and make some fun decisions. “Oh, this is a dream. Sweet, I’m gonna go do [X] now.” I always remember don’t try flying, because it was scary when I tried and jolted me out of the dream.

    But here’s the thing. Once I’m awake, as I think about it, it seems like I did exactly what I wanted to do, but I realize that there’s absolutely no way of knowing whether I genuinely had control or just dreamed that I had control and made those choices. But in the end I did have control and made those choices because it’s my brain, right? And I feel like I did; it’s more like a memory than a dream. But following the same line, I could question reality.

    Anyway, I’m currently cynical and think nobody actually controls their dreams, they only wake up thinking they did.


  • Amazing as always. I have no intention of getting switch 2 ($$$ and we have a steam deck) but the new James Bond game trailer is making it tough.

    I wanted to share my home screen; thought you might appreciate it. I stole one of those pixel art cityscapes you shared and might put it to use:

    The message cycles Good Morning, Good Afternoon, Good Night, Good Lord (for when I really should be asleep).

    On a road trip driving/exploring the coast right now, so I’m not getting any gaming in. I hope that cabin provides some peace and relaxation for you!








  • The gaming magazines were fun and all, but your posts take me days to get through because you really sell me on wanting to deep dive into everything, and you even provide links to exacerbate the situation!

    Very nice work. These posts are genuinely my favorite thing I look forward to on Lemmy.

    I finally started death stranding! I got goosebumps the first time I was out on a mission and the camera backed away letting you just experience the scenery and music. And then so scary when, you know, it’s scary. Great at setting the mood. It’s beautiful

    The show is really good, I wanna say I struggled in the first season. I even stopped watching for a bit, but was encouraged to pick it back up. Apparently that happens to a lot of people.

    It definitely finds itself and just gets better every season.

    Not as good as office or community, but like Stamets said, each character adds to the show in their own way. And it’s wild how many of them went on to be bigger stars in other roles. Aziz Ansari, Chris Pratt, Aubrey plaza, Nick Offerman, Adam Scott




  • Cities in pretty much the entire country are running with an understaffed police force. They’ll take what they can get. I’m 100% pro Union, but another problem is that police unions help protect unfit (literally and figuratively) police from being forced to try harder by abusing protected status health claims. I’ve seen in both police and military, they are handed paperwork if they are not meeting fitness expectations, but nothing ever comes of it.
