Dreams

I couldn't sleep for ages last night and I think I ended up drifting off at around 3.

but I had this dream which was split into three parts and I can't even remember some of the things that happened. But parts of it featured black, volcanic like explosions induced by oil, some of which propelled horses a few thousand feet into the air, which then plummetted back down to earth. One of those horses landed head first, and then it rolled around and got back up. Yeah. And there was other stuff like frightening train stations and being abandoned. I think I was like "hey, I haven't seen you in ages" and then everyone walked away.

but that's not what I'm here for.

There was one part in the dream where I was subconsciously aware it was a dream or something, and I acknowledged that it was a dream in the dream, but that didn't make it a lucid dream because at the same time, I didn't know it was a dream. That doesn't logically make sense but that's what happened. Unaware that I was in a dream, I stated that I was in a dream.

And it was a really inception-like moment because I said something like "we can't all share the same dream, and since this is my dream, you all don't exist".

I said other things as well, and I really wish I could remember it because they were really remarkable things, but I can't. I just know that I took that idea and attached it to real life, logically saying something like "everyone and everything I know in real life is an illusion", which is some ways is very true. only a few ways.


and I can't really remember anything else about that inception moment (I don't even know how inception got into the dream when I was thinking about Merlin, SC2 and life for the hour in which I tried to get to sleep).

and morgan was there for the train part of the dream. he looks exactly the same.


But anyway, now that I'm awake, it got me thinking things which I once considered.
Like, how do I know I'm the same? What if my consciousness is different to everyone elses? Some people have incredible reaction times. What if Time for them was twice as slow, as in, they can detect everything you could detect in 5 seconds /in 1 of their seconds, so they can react five times as fast

and colours, I know I've said this one before. I think I want to do this one with pictures. damn now the thumbnail of the post is going to be really dodgy but anyway


okay I drew this up in about two minutes (okay it was more like 5 minutes because I'm really slow and wanted to save pride). That is meant to be the sun. That is the sky. That is a tree. That is grass.

The picture on the left is what we all see. But what if we were born colour blind, or we just saw colours differently, and some of us saw colours like the picture on the right? And there would be no way to acknowledge this colour blindness, because the hypothetical colourblind people wouldn't know they were hypothetically colourblind since its been like that for their entire lives.

And they can't say "wait a minute the sun isn't blue I must be colourblind" because they've been taught that what they see as blue is known as yellow.



and then I thought a bit more, and does everyone remember the colour wheel? Well not the colour wheel because that's stupid, but primary and secondary colours (I think that's what they were called). We have red yellow and blue as primary, mix them around for orange green and purple which are secondary.

So this is the part that threw off my theory (theory?)

edit: nevermind theory still stands.

this is getting out of control so i'll just post this now
