I had a dream where I was exploring a house then I went into the garage and I meet up with Cora Harper and several plants. Somehow a Plant grew several animated vines that went to her ankles and she said what the fuck.

this whole week I've had the same horrifying dream: That my BSN account was banished and deleted from the Forum, without explanation and no one, no one every told me anything about it.
The first time it happened I had the urge to turn on my PC at 2:30 a.m. and check to see if it was true.
I am glad to see that it was not.

Somehow a Plant grew several animated vines that went to her ankles and she said what the fuck. the real question there is which Cora Harper are we talking about ? if its the bint from MEA then meh if its one of from one of the fantasy book series which one? and if its from a tv series again which one, thats a name that gets used rather a lot so I guess at some point in the past some real life chick had that name and all her fans have been nerding out over her ever since... and yes for several versions of cora harper vines growing towards her would be appropriate

Had a hyper realistic dream last night.
Watched an emergency broadcast with relatives about an imminent meteorite strike somewhere in Egypt - judging by the age of my relatives this would about 10-12 years in the future.
We went outside and walked a bit to get a better view, a couple minutes later we saw a smoke trail across the sky and a bright orange haze at the horizon. The earth shook and an impossibly high wall of smoke slowly rose blocking out the sun. I then suggested to get back in the house quickly, despite the immense distance to the actual impact site. About 20 minutes later we were engulfed in ash, every breath was like inhaling multiple cigarettes at once. Visibility was zero, I only heard the screams of my relatives. Suddenly the ash was swept away by a concussion blast that nearly knocked me off my feet, followed by a shower of rocks, which first started small fist sized pieces but later they were big as a car. It made a sound like a deafening nonstop thunder from a thunderstorm.
Dodging them was incredibly hard, I could not decide whether to simply run or to slow down and watch the sky to dodge them. Last thing I remember was intense pain in my upper back - then the alarm of my clock woke me.
That was the most realistic feeling dream I had in ages.

I had an inception like dream last night, as in a dream within a dream.
I won't get into the details but one character in the dream referred to events that happened in another dream I had in the past.

The other night I dreamed my Warden and her crew were heading for the Urn of Sacred Ashes arriving there there was this camera crew with some random influencer taking pictures and stuff So my Warden gets roped up in this influencer's gimmicks and even asked to 'play along' at first my Warden's like 'nah' ...but then they promise to pay her and she's like 'alright fine'
But of course my Warden being my Warden (this was my hot-headed Tabris who has little patience for people like that) she eventually gets fed up and says: Warden: ugh...I'm bored, can I stab someone? Alistair: no you can't stab someone Warden: *points at influencer* I can't stab her? Alistair: no you can't Warden: what about them? *points at camera crew* Alistair: no... Warden: because we're being paid? Alistair: *sighs* because we're being paid Warden: ugh...
All the while the Guardian is doing his best not to face-palm as he tries to tell the influencer that 'no you can't take a selfie with the shades' (and when I say shades I mean the creature kind)
^ I'm making part of it up since I don't remember everything...I even belief there was a gift shop, made no sense whatsoever, but it was kinda hilarious though I did wake up rather annoyed...I think my Tabris influenced me

We were coming home (from somewhere). F must have objected to something because I insisted: "Oh, but yes, we do live here. Come and look", as I locked up the door.
Now might be a good place to mention a few things. One of the weird things that are pretty consistent in my dreams, is that no place, that is my home in my dreams, have ever been like any place where I've ever lived in real life. By contrast, visiting my parent's home in dreams, was sometimes fairly authentic. Yet another thing, is that, this time, from where I thought my home was, I could just spot my real house, where I really live, in the dream, in the distance, 150-200 yards or so away, across two streets and one town square. And that is why I think this dream has a few thematic similarities with my red Ferrari dream, where I suddenly assumed a covered car that was in a different spot from where I had parked, was my car.
Anyway, my key fits of course and we enter. - And the hole place is raided! All of our belongings are gone. Furniture, computers, books, kitchen utensils... Even the floors were gone, leaving only bare concrete.
I was very upset, of course. - What a disaster! But at the same time there were a few strange feelings: One was that I wasn't completely devastated. Maybe that's because I'm usually not. That's just what I've become, through life. But there was also this feeling of nothing bad that doesn't have a good side. The freedom from the old belongings. I was sad, of course, because there were many things I treasured highly. But at the same time, life goes on.
The other strange feeling was that this must be impossible in some way. I never questioned the reality of the dream, never got the idea that maybe this is just a bad dream. But there was this faint reminiscence that other similar situations hadn't been real, that there was a way out somehow.
I couldn't see any though, so I accepted my fate.
The dream must have continued with something else for a while, because when I woke up, I woke up from something else. But I immediately realized that it wasn't true that our home had been broken into and emptied, and had a sigh of relief. There was a way out anyway, just as I had suspected.

so had another episode of feeling like I was doing the same thing again, not sure since i stopped taking all the meds a few months back and things sort of snowballed.
it used to be that my ex wife was my anchor point to reality, but now I cant tell if she was actually the divergence point (so many things, I mean forget the lies, the bitch literally poisoned me several times which explains some of my current problems like the eyesight problems and lowered kidney functions) but I digress, I had another disturbing dream of searching for someone who I still cant properly remember (I have photos that prove they exist despite the fact for years I thought they were just a dream) of searching for them endlessly by virtue of just their first name (despite my best attempts I cant remember their full name, 20 odd year old problems associated wiht a cracked skull and amnesia... well that and many subsequent concussion inducing events that frequently also caused amnesia, add that to the brain melting effects of being under heavy medication for over 20 years and yeah its a bit of a miracle I can still remember any name) well anyway I have had I think the best way to call them would be premonitions that I meet up with them due to some random dreams that might just be premonitions, my son (who might not be but thats a whole other story) is in the process of buying a house, he took me to see it, before I saw the building or any details of it, I described the layout of the front room and the entryway and indeed the street location, I wasn't spot on but I wasn't far off... add to that the dream of looking for someone online and subsequently meeting them and I am getting seriously concerned that either I already did all this or I am absolutely bat shit insane... worse I wrote in my dream diary 5 years ago the depiction of my son's prospective house purchase... at that time he was still in school so its unlikely he was buying a house...
fuck I hate shit like this this is why I refused to make a dream diary but the psychobabblers insisted it was required...

Several times in the last two weeks I've had the same dream. It starts as an FPV sorta thing winding through what looks like some sort of steel factory....filled with corrugated metal catwalks lined with pipes and hissing steam....not unlike the underside of Cloud City, floating above Bespin. And then the motion stops and what-- or should I say whom do I see standing there, but the dark Lord of the Sith, Darth Vader. And in his hands, he's holding not a lightsaber....But the combined Soul Swords, fused together as one. He appears to be staring at it with utmost awe and reverence, and then he unsheathes it and says "Behold, the Soul Sword. More powerful and deadlier than any lightsaber, the ultimate weapon. The blade of this ancient saber can even cut through the blade of a lightsaber! And now it's MINE! I have the ultimate power to kill every remaining Jedi within my grasp-- even rid myself of the Emperor and finally control the universe the way I see fit! The power of even the Cosmic Force will be mine forever!"
And then the dream ends
I think I have Soul Calibur V on my mind........Though why I don't know, I found that game quite boring unless I was playing with a friend. I couldn't bring myself to play through the "story mode" though I was intrigued by the inclusion of Vader, Yoda and Galen Marek. It was one of the first games I decided to sell back to Best Buy after not playing it for several years. That and the impossible Ninja Gaiden II. That game was so frigging hard even on EASY that I couldn't get past the second level.....The worm thing in the subway tunnels was impossible! So I sold that too.
The games I did keep were Arkham Asylum/City, Pince of Persia (2008 cell-shaded reboot), PoP: The Forgotten Sands, TFU 1 and 2, Tomb Raider 1 and 2....and a few more that I can't remember the titles of. I had nearly 24 games at one point....now I have fewer than 10. Eight maybe at the very most. But I haven't hooked up my 360 since before College.....so it's gotta be close to 10 years. But I want to hold onto it because the games I have I really like and you can't get them on any other system. Not that I'm aware of. THough Ihave heard rumours and whispers that the entire Tomb Raider trilogy will be released for PC sometime this year or next. I haven't played 3 yet....Really enjoyed both 1 and 2, but never got the chance to play 3 because it's only on XB One....But if the whole Tomb Raider trilogy is released for PC, I might well pick it up at some point so that I can finish the Trilogy.

I dreamt I was back, working in a professional kitchen, but instead of a floor the line & prep/office areas were a moat of thick, whitish liquid (no idea what it was) Also we were insanely busy and the customers all had animal heads. I was panicking because I couldn't find my Nakiri (fav knife), then my high school GF showed up and seemed to have aged about a month since high school

Very weird dream again. I dreamed that Vincent Cassel killed one of my sisters . They were not my actual sisters (I do have sisters) but they were my sisters in my dream, does that make sense? Anyways, I don't even comprehend why I dreamed with him, and doing that, since I haven't seen a movie of his in ages lol

I wish her well, but frankly I don't care to have any contact with her or her family.

"I think they're trying to scare us."
These are the last words I said before waking up from a vivid dream last night.
Now, like most dreams I have I only seem to remember the later end of dreams. I know bits and pieces of earlier parts but only really remember the later parts. In the earlier part I knew a dead relative (I think one of my parents) was there as well as one of my dogs from the past. Now to the later part that I remember.
I'm looking out over a vast field, I can see a long ways and I have some worry or trepidation as I look. I'm looking for a ufo or an alien ship and I've either seen them here before or I know that there has been a lot of sightings. I see a flash of light far off to my right and my heart is in my throat as I look that way but I give a sigh of relief as it is just a far off thunder and lighting storm.
A short time later I see a flash to my left and there in the sky is some kind of craft enclosed by blue lighting or electricity. I point and say "There is one there." (at this point in the dream I realize I am with a friend but the friend never speaks and I do not know who it is. They are standing a bit behind me.)
After closer inspection the thing is not actually a craft, it is a car enclosed by this shifting lightning. An older white station wagon. It is moving around slowly and is about 50-60 feet in the air. All of a sudden the blue lightning disappears and the car crashes to the ground with a bang and partly flattens itself and pieces of it go shooting off in various directions.
Then there is another vehicle in the air now enclosed by the blue lighting. At this point I conclude that these are not alien ships but the aliens are doing this to these human vehicles. Like the first vehicle eventually the lighting disappears in an instant and the vehicle crashes to the ground.
Next vehicle is much closer I can see it better and it is only about 3 feet off the ground. It is an old blue farmers tractor enclosed by the blue lighting. It starts moving faster, I am in a building (about the size of a barn) looking out the window at the tractor moving faster and now circling the barn 3 feet off the ground, now faster.
At this point I say, "I think they're trying to scare us."

I had a dream that I was on a Suicide Mission fighting against the Collectors. Well my squad was tasked on taking down the Human Reaper for he was controlling the Defenses of the Collector Base.
Well I was the last Surivor of the squad due to my Phantom Implant Reviving me. I salvaging the remaining Equipment from my dead comrades and found a Cerberus Jet pack back. So I flew to join up with the Rest of Cerberus in the final push to the Core of the Collector Base. Shay'la a fellow Cerberus Phantom, was leading another squad and laying down cover firing for her squad. So I used the last 2 missiles to take down one of the Eezo Pylons surrounding the core. there was a Bo-katan look a like did say get down for she has position herself on a ledge with a Gigantic canon and shooting the remaining Pylons. Shay'la radioed me while I was still in the air and was both surprised and happy to see me in her usual weird goofy way. I manage to get very close to the Collector General before I awoke up.

Just had a weird nightmare. It was nighttime and I went down my driveway to close the gate. It was nearly completely dark and when I was grabbing the gate to close it lightning struck the ground directly in front of me, I was immediately dazed by the immense white flash and noise. Where the lightning struck the ground an oily mute shadow in the vague shape of a man rose, it hesitated for a second then it grabbed me with inhuman strength and dragged me away with incredible speed. Then I woke up with a jump, sweat in my face. 0_o

This night I again had one of those rare, and very long, very sequential, almost rational - though with surreal story twists and environments - story dreams. And I managed to memorize it fairly okay when I woke up. It's not interesting though, so I won't recount it in detail here. Some points of interest though. It was a good while since I last had a such rational and long dream. Lately it's mostly been completely chaotic and broken up nonsense. So this was welcome because it gives me a sense of 'normal' again. Also, most of the people featured in the dream were real persons, family and work mates. That's kinda rare for me, but it happens.
We were living in a giant, ground level, luxury apartment (might have been inspired by my former boss' house) that was directly integrated into something that was supposed to be my workplace. It wasn't like there was a door opening between. Several rooms, main living room, library, instead lacked a separating wall from the office area, the difference being other light fixtures, floor and wall furnishings. And then you could also continue directly out into vast workshop areas. So in the middle of the night, the workforce suddenly comes visiting and want to discuss and look at some work. As they do so, some group of loitering people wanders off into my private quarters, and starts to poke about and discuss our private stuff, so I had to put my foot down.

So I had a dream with some interesting details. It wasn't a story dream. On the contrary it was a very static situation. The only thing I remember happened was that I was walking in the snow and wondering how I should use my βPurchase Cardsβ.
It was Christmas time, just like now. Though it wasn't allowed to be called βChristmasβ. And pretty miserable times, just like now. But no Covid or epidemic.
Instead, misery came from that everybody had to have 'Purchase Cards' and 'Task Cards'.
For everything you bought, every single item purchase, you had to use a purchase card. It was a small, maybe ΒΎ of the size of a credit card, thin, cheap paper card, pale dull yellow, with your name, address and maybe other personal details (don't remember, but the idea was that it was personal and not transferable) imprinted on it together with something that looked like an old type of stamp, elaborate steel engraved stamp, with the portrait of an old grinning, ugly lady, to show that it was valid). Nothing digital, just like oldfashioned 1984 paper bureaucracy. So when you made a purchase, the time & date, type of item and value would be noted on the card, and the card would be punched, to show that it had been used. The purchase card was not money. You still had to pay in normal fashion (but in the dream it was all paper money, cash, no digital). The cards were only for the right to buy something at all.
Then you had task cards. These were similar, but dark, maroon red instead. In the poor light of dusk, towards the end of the day, it was difficult to read the task, pre-printed on the card. The tasks would be all kinds of things, like go to an address and carry a chair up the stairs, shuffle gravel somewhere, or give $100 (your own money) to a tattooed gang member, or whatever.
People did not get the same amount of cards, nor similar tasks. It was entirely individual. Everybody would have a booked time, at some hole-in-the-wall booth, where you had to show up at the right time to turn in your used task cards and purchase cards. If you failed to turn in a task card, you would get an increased number of task cards, as punishment. You would normally only get the same amount of new purchase cards as you turned in, but there could be surprise adjustments. Some people got very few task cards, maybe even only one, and many purchase cards. Others could get an entirely different deal. I only had 5 purchase cards for my Christmas shopping, remember they were for individual items, and a pack of red task cards to finish.
There were no expressed rules for how many cards you received. It just was, and you had to accept your fate. But the general justification was 'fairness'. But this was a 1984 type of dystopia, so some people βwere more equalβ than others, and some people βdeserved more fairnessβ than others.
And if you in any way at all, criticized or protested this βequality and fairnessβ, you were a very bad and evil person. The dream never specified any punishments beyond more task cards and fewer purchase cards. But if you didn't make an effort to turn in your task cards, you wouldn't get any purchase cards and would starve. And penalties, even amounting to death penalties, could easily be issued through tasks involving nasty and dangerous jobs.
