Once again my dreams are a matter for the family chat room late night with my naturalist nephew. I had a dream Wed night about @PBSNature where I was operating on a Black mamba snake. It was a successful operation. Just now my dream was about college academic bureaucracy. Pretty tame stuff. My nephew says that he dreamed about one of my running jokes with him. I'm often referring to "grandmaw's tipple" when I joke with him, the bottles of wine my mother brings home and drinks every night. This week it turned out to be a big gallon jug of red wine. So now my nephew dreams about them. In the chat room this is shortened to "gmas tipple." The link to the @PBSNature episode about Black mambas is here. This chat log is mildly expurgated. I also removed the name of a local politician & family friend who dealt with a plagiarism charge.

hi
[02:11:15] [Tom - 25.237.132.57 / 2620:9b::19ed:8439]
mornin
[02:11:20] [Tom - 25.237.132.57 / 2620:9b::19ed:8439]
never got to bed lol
[02:11:43]
i just had an odd dream
[02:11:47] [Tom - 25.237.132.57 / 2620:9b::19ed:8439]
how's it goin
[02:12:04] [Tom - 25.237.132.57 / 2620:9b::19ed:8439]
another one huh
[02:12:17]
well i have a million of em
[02:12:47]
i also remember them 80% of the time when i wake up cuz its so fast
[02:13:23]
anyway in this dream my academic college record was in the toilet again
[02:14:06]
I took 3 of my journal papers and revised them to turn them in as my own work like I did for my first Master's thesis
[02:14:58]
a bunch of stuck up college preps met with me and looked at me calmly informing me smugly "That's plagiarism"
[02:15:19]
even tho my college adviser told me that it isnt
[02:15:55]
see they are fuckin arbitrary as hell about that "plagiarism" charge
[02:16:09]
they stick anybody they dont like with that one
[02:16:34] [Tom - 25.237.132.57 / 2620:9b::19ed:8439]
IC
[02:16:52]
for example they tried to say that *local college president* plagiarized his doctorate paper
[02:17:09] [Tom - 25.237.132.57 / 2620:9b::19ed:8439]
they make sure to tell you over and over again that it's a big deal and they'll screw you for it, I know that
[02:17:46]
no evidence, they just somehow proved that he lifted some words from another paper without citing them properly
[02:18:30]
anyway it was a big deal and he had to pay 3 other professors to read his revised paper
[02:19:12]
somehow it always means that you pay off the 3 most stuck up asshole professors in the entire college system
[02:19:38]
that's what a bogus "plagiarism" charge means
[02:19:42] [Tom - 25.237.132.57 / 2620:9b::19ed:8439]
as usual it comes down to monnnnneeeeeehhhh I C
[02:19:50] [Tom - 25.237.132.57 / 2620:9b::19ed:8439]
The root of all evil
[02:19:52] [Tom - 25.237.132.57 / 2620:9b::19ed:8439]
lol
[02:19:54]
for grad students it means you are kicked off campus
[02:20:14]
undergrads get suspended for up to 2 years
[02:20:30] [Tom - 25.237.132.57 / 2620:9b::19ed:8439]
yeah suspension and all that, that was always at least implied when they talked to me about it
[02:20:52]
I still think its applied to anyone a professor doesnt like
[02:21:34]
you know in some cases its like calling the pope a plagiarist because he lifts his best lines from the Bible
[02:21:54] [Tom - 25.237.132.57 / 2620:9b::19ed:8439]
sorry about school dreams : ( last thing I'd want to dream about
[02:22:18]
oh i dream about college shit all the time
[02:22:45]
considering my entire career was at college or in dead end jobs its a wonder it aint every night
[02:23:26]
i mean who wants to dream about wiping asses or cleaning grease traps?
[02:23:48]
so i dream about stuck up assholes in every form
[02:24:14]
if I had worked at the beach instead then id be dreaming about the beach every night
[02:24:35]
y ocean sunsets and sea turtles etc
[02:24:39] [Tom - 25.237.132.57 / 2620:9b::19ed:8439]
oh I see
[02:25:33] [Tom - 25.237.132.57 / 2620:9b::19ed:8439]
difference in dreaming tendencies, I guess. Mine are always at least apparently devoid of real-life context unless I think about it for some of them
[02:25:43] [Tom - 25.237.132.57 / 2620:9b::19ed:8439]
weird surreal shit
[02:26:08] [Tom - 25.237.132.57 / 2620:9b::19ed:8439]
beach dreams with turtles would be great lol
[02:26:11] [Tom - 25.237.132.57 / 2620:9b::19ed:8439]
space turtles
[02:26:22]
well i find it more disturbing that it was a group of 4 black alums who informed me that the plagiarism was going into my academic record
[02:26:32]
alumni
[02:26:51]
y space turtles
[02:27:21]
I prolly dream about that after watching @novapbs 2 nights in a row before bedtime
[02:27:52] [Tom - 25.237.132.57 / 2620:9b::19ed:8439]
fuck yeah nature
[02:28:03] [Tom - 25.237.132.57 / 2620:9b::19ed:8439]
they had the black mamba thing on again last night
[02:28:21]
oh y hes pretty
[02:28:31] [Tom - 25.237.132.57 / 2620:9b::19ed:8439]
I kin share nature links if it'd help kick the college asshole dreams out
[02:28:45] [Tom - 25.237.132.57 / 2620:9b::19ed:8439]

very much so
[02:31:11] [Tom - 25.237.132.57 / 2620:9b::19ed:8439]
that shit looked painful :( was glad they turned out to be functioning normally afterwards
[02:34:20]
oh y
[02:37:05] [Tom - 25.237.132.57 / 2620:9b::19ed:8439]
that dream discussion last night must have jump started the dream centers of my brain; finally had another. Gma gave me this bottle of what was ostensibly wine, but tasted more like tropical fruit juice. I proceeded to drift through time and space, and ended up in some far off city full of shoppers. Everyone was trying to sell me shit. I took another swig, and the stuff made me invisible. I therefore hid away from the crowds under a tree, and wondered why I didn't taste any alchohol or feel any related effects. As I looked down at my gut drowsily, my head merged inside of it and I briefly saw nothing but darkness. When I pulled my head out, this big woman was looking worriedly at me holding the bottle of whatever-the-fuck. I wanted it back from her, but she ran off with it.
[02:37:44] [Tom - 25.237.132.57 / 2620:9b::19ed:8439]
Not a very long dream
[02:38:11] [Tom - 25.237.132.57 / 2620:9b::19ed:8439]
Gma doesn't have any mysterious foreign possibly-magical fluids hiding amongst her tipple does she? lol

[13:57:14] [Tom - 25.237.132.57 / 2620:9b::19ed:8439]
day by day she grows in skill in powah
[13:57:23] [Tom - 25.237.132.57 / 2620:9b::19ed:8439]
we are amazed at her prowess purr
[13:57:34]

[13:57:41]

[00:35:23] [Tom - 25.237.132.57 / 2620:9b::19ed:8439]
hi guys
[00:43:19]
hi
[00:43:45] [Tom - 25.237.132.57 / 2620:9b::19ed:8439]
I'm up at midnight again X_X
[00:43:48] [Tom - 25.237.132.57 / 2620:9b::19ed:8439]
so's joe
[00:43:50]
ive been having a superweird dream
[00:44:02] [Tom - 25.237.132.57 / 2620:9b::19ed:8439]
recurrent?
[00:44:05] [Tom - 25.237.132.57 / 2620:9b::19ed:8439]
those
[00:44:11] [Tom - 25.237.132.57 / 2620:9b::19ed:8439]
are always odd
[00:44:25]
i was stuck in a time stop and kept reliving two minutest agan
[00:44:44]
reliving two minutes
[00:45:04] [Tom - 25.237.132.57 / 2620:9b::19ed:8439]
O_O that would get torturous fast
[00:45:13]
only they kept changing and these mafia guy kept coming to kill us
[00:46:33]
in the end i chose life and light instead of darkness and kept arguing with them that they shouldnt kill me
[00:46:54]
they were members of the cops mafia
[00:47:10]
you know crooked cops
[00:47:27]
i was a physician who wanted to save everybody
[00:48:26]
i kept wanting to kill everybody but if i did that then id be stuck in the time loop forever
[00:49:01] [Tom - 25.237.132.57 / 2620:9b::19ed:8439]
weird
[00:49:30]
so i lengthened the time loop to 3 minutes by trying to save everybody even tho they were intending to kill me
[00:50:24]
at the end of 3 minutes i had taken 2 bullets and fought them off while explaining why they shouldnt kill me for exposing them
[00:50:48]
also i saved one of their number who had gone down in the firefight
[00:51:41]
i was in the corner applying tourniquets and arguing with him when i woke up
[00:54:13] [Tom - 25.237.132.57 / 2620:9b::19ed:8439]
that's pretty strange lol the more people you keep from dying the more time you get but you'd need more than a few mins to save them I would think.
[01:02:01] [Tom - 25.237.132.57 / 2620:9b::19ed:8439]
I've been mostly dreamless lately, kinda strange really. I had one REALLY funky climate change/dystopia/death related one a couple months ago and can't remember having any after that
[01:10:13] [Tom - 25.237.132.57 / 2620:9b::19ed:8439]
I was on wolf creek. The power plant on lake of egypt had become a massive supercomplex of smog spewing factories and other assorted industrial buildings. We were all trapped there; crowds of despondent people lined the water's edge dressed in rags. I went to the end where the cars usually turned around, and this weird robed guy was holding a dead girl. He looked at me and said some weird mumbly stuff, then knelt down next to the water. The girl's body turned to oily sludge and drained into the water. End dream, tho thinking back I wonder if the line of people were those waiting to be transformed and emptied into the lake
[01:10:34] [Tom - 25.237.132.57 / 2620:9b::19ed:8439]
it freaked me out a little
[01:10:52] [Tom - 25.237.132.57 / 2620:9b::19ed:8439]
same day you told me about those rednecks who shot a circus elephant IIRC
[01:11:08] [Tom - 25.237.132.57 / 2620:9b::19ed:8439]
haven't had much since then
[01:11:16] [Tom - 25.237.132.57 / 2620:9b::19ed:8439]
lol it's a little morbid sorry
[01:11:51] [Tom - 25.237.132.57 / 2620:9b::19ed:8439]
anyway I'm no dream interpreter so can't help you there
[01:16:04]
oh well i usually have time stop dreams when im mediatating
[01:16:53]
I suspect it was because I was forcing myself to stay on my left side all night to void rolling on kitties
[01:17:13]
they come and go from my bed at night you see
[01:17:48]
When I passed out Sticky was sleeping in front of me while Swirly kept jumping up to tampoline on my bed
----------------------------
Addendum:
I said that I was laying on my left side to avoid rolling over onto kittens in bed.In truth I was laying on my RIGHT side. I have to meditate while asleep to stay on my RIGHT side because I favor the left. If I don't do this then I frequently thrash around and damage the wall.
you know swirly caught a bird this morning and tried to eat him in here

Braman, yoga injury, wheel of fire, Green Man, Apparition, Library Apocalypse dreams
Dream diary update. This is the first entry I have made on CrapboxReloaded. The old power supply on Crapbox died and the boys helped me get reconnected on this newer device. On Wednesday 5/8 I began having dreams that involved more movements and sleepwalking. I can tell when my sleeping spinal block is partially inactive every 6 weeks or so. Wednesday's dreaming was harmless. I had Brahman-type Vedic dreams about creation & discipline while I could feel my body practicing some yoga moves. Sure enough I woke up sore on Thursday.
I fell asleep upstairs Thursday 5/9 afternoon while holding Swirly kitten on the couch and after I woke up I noticed that I couldn't walk anymore. Its possible that I may have vaulted from the couch to leap awake at some point either Wednesday or Thursday. I don't remember it well. Anyway I had a medium strain in my lower back muscles that contorted my posture and made it very painful to get up for the past 4 days. I only just now got full functioning & ROM, although I expect the discomfort when my spinal pressure rises as I stand to continue for a few days.
On Friday 5/10 I dreamed I was the Green Man again. I turned a few people into trees before turning into a soaring eagle in mid-air. I woke up while dreaming that I was flying a great loop until I was upside down.
On Saturday 5/11 I dreamed about being a bodiless apparition or blue vapor who moved from room to room interacting with other higher dimensional entities. I wondered if this dream was related to my injury or to the muscle relaxant med that dad gave me. I've been taking them once per day at noon and they cause me to drop off into a disturbed nap.
This morning (Sunday 5/12) I had another wild dream that was filled with religious imagery. This time it was more Judeo-Christian than Wednesday's Hindu dreams. Instead of dreaming about a wheel of fire or reincarnation, I dreamed that the 'end times' apocalypse was at hand. Instead of being a floating apparition moving room to room like yesterday (Saturday, 5/11), I dreamed up a new physical identity who similarly moved from room to room as the dream progressed. I was helping a group of monks try to save sacred scriptures and testaments in each room as the leader of the demons attacked with his minions. I read the scriptures as I visited each room talking to the monks. They were profoundly Christian but included some discussion of Babylonian deities and naming demons. We were losing against the latest demon attack. I was pinned against the ceiling & enveloped by blue flames as parchment smoldered & flew everywhere like a swarm of fiery bees. The flames reached my eyes blinding me as I awoke. I mused on how religious my dreams have been getting lately when religion plays so small a part of my waking life. I had an urge to watch religious satire anime, Panty and Stocking with Garterbelt, which I found mildly amusing. I briefly considered and rejected attending Mother's Day services with mom at her Methodist haunt.
Interpretation: It is not unusual for me to have apocalyptic dreams after injuring myself in my sleep. However, the blue flames, Green Man. ivy, and other nature images suggest that it may be related to Wednesday's announcement that global carbon dioxide reached 400 ppm. Thursday's PBS Newshour announced that that is the highest it has been in 3M years. All the coastal state Senators I watched on cspan this week were speaking about how their states will be ruined by between 2050 and 2100. Both California senators claimed that their state will be a desert. Senator Whitehouse of Rhode Island claimed that vast swaths of the East coast will soon be underwater. So the apocalypse dreams are probably because of that disturbing announcement. I spoke with my brother about it briefly yesterday. As to why the dreams are so religious is anyone's guess. I am a hard agnostic humanist while awake. I like to say that no human could possibly have it right.
As to why I've been dreaming about Vedas or sacred texts. This week I heard the results of a long term study about the effects of heavy internet usage on child development. The researchers claimed that lack of human interaction led to stunted language development for babies born since 2000 (Millennial babies.) Conclusions Quote: "Heavy usage of devices (ie babysitter tvs) led to a scarcity in polyglots and the Internet is 'Shredding' basic reading skills." I especially remember that word 'Shredding' by the early internet usage. Since I grew up in libraries sleeping and reading, I know how important they are to secondary education. I may be no true polyglot, but I can read at 300+ words per minute. That has enhanced my internet experience. It seems that most Millennials want a more stimulative medium or VR interface. That will harm their chances at traditional education. More importantly, they will even be unfamiliar with the concept of sacred texts since text outside of txting & tweeting would seem completely unnecessary to them.
I fell asleep upstairs Thursday 5/9 afternoon while holding Swirly kitten on the couch and after I woke up I noticed that I couldn't walk anymore. Its possible that I may have vaulted from the couch to leap awake at some point either Wednesday or Thursday. I don't remember it well. Anyway I had a medium strain in my lower back muscles that contorted my posture and made it very painful to get up for the past 4 days. I only just now got full functioning & ROM, although I expect the discomfort when my spinal pressure rises as I stand to continue for a few days.
On Friday 5/10 I dreamed I was the Green Man again. I turned a few people into trees before turning into a soaring eagle in mid-air. I woke up while dreaming that I was flying a great loop until I was upside down.
On Saturday 5/11 I dreamed about being a bodiless apparition or blue vapor who moved from room to room interacting with other higher dimensional entities. I wondered if this dream was related to my injury or to the muscle relaxant med that dad gave me. I've been taking them once per day at noon and they cause me to drop off into a disturbed nap.

The Bletchley Circle, PBS, Jason Vorhees, killer cops, eugenics, harem, The Devil, forest gods, transmogrification of the soul dreams
I just had an odd dream about a program playing on my TV. I had left it running on PBS when I passed out after 10:30 pm. The program was a rerun of "The Bletchley Circle." Somehow the program elements had become incorporated in my dream. Perhaps I remembered the program from another night such as Sunday night, when I left it on PBS all evening while I concentrated on my web browsing?
Anyway, I am depressed enough about most of my animals disappearing last week that I had a dream about a horror subject. Lately I have been thinking that they were taken by coyotes/dogs, probably to appease the forest god who loves white offerings. I woke up in time to watch most of the TV program. Here is my dream described via chat log:
[03:18:42]
awakr again
[03:18:59]
I just had a dream that was like the very devil
[03:19:35]
I was Jason Vorhees with a harem practicing eugenics
[03:20:22]
I had somehow gotten all these women picked out to carry my children and ensnared them in my devilish plot to conceive
[03:20:55]
They all met with me and we entered an underground maze together
[03:21:12]
I was wearing a police/SS Nazi uniform
[03:22:20]
we all got lost in the maze even though we tried severasl things to not lose one another
[03:22:51]
I wouldnt hurt the women only because they were to become mothers to one of my ch0ildren
[03:23:45]
finally my plot was underway and the women were talking about how each of them met me
[03:24:02]
one of the women had met me while I was in prison
[03:24:58]
it was her job to move me around and she had made a mistake and temporarily put me in the italian arts library instead of the german one
[03:25:07] [Dirk Diddly] is offline
[03:25:33]
after one week she moved me to where she had intended at the prison german library
[03:26:16]
italian is the language of passion so she knew that it would have inflamed me and it did
[03:26:59] [25.237.132.57 / 2620:9b::19ed:8439 - Dirk Diddly] is online
[03:27:59]
another 'wife' had a plan to have a child during the war but she couldnt conceive
[03:28:21]
she knew from praying that she could conceive with only me
[03:29:04]
the women shared their stories with one another of how I had ensnared them in my devilish eugenics plot while I was lost in the maze
[03:29:25]
I finally stumbled across a room with the 2 oldest women
[03:30:25]
they spoke with me about materialism and spiritual values while I conceded to them that I might have a soul and that there is probably life after death
[03:30:37]
and then we all woke up
[03:30:59]
it was the harshest dream ive had for a week
[03:31:49]
Im watching pbs
[03:33:51]
They have a WWII detective story on with spooky music
[03:33:53]
http://www.pbs.org/program/bletchley-circle/
[03:34:22]
The Bletchley Circle
Interpretation:
So basically I had a dream about being an amorous Jason Vorhees and also a killer cop wearing a Nazi cop uniform. I started by trying to convince young women to conceive my children and ended up by arguing with the two oldest ones about whether the Devil has a soul or not. It turned out that he does. Somehow my soul had ended up by transmogrifying into an intangible devil himself. I was arguing with two wise old female ghosts about the nature of things before I took them to Hell. Then I woke up.
It turned out that the women I was dreaming about were supposed to be characters from "The Bletchley Circle." Both of my remaining 2 cats were gone, although the girl cat Swirly came to knock on my outside door by my bed when she noticed I was awake.Sticky cat is still AWOL, although I am hopeful the coyotes or wolves did not get him. Probably my cats being away from the bed and not watching me made me feel lonely in my sleep. The forest gods taking my animals had me dreaming about murderers. That accounts for most of the dream elements. The only unexplained ones were about The Devil having a soul. Perhaps this part was an philosophical argument I was having with myself? It reminds me of dreams I used to have while sleeping in libraries. Back then I used to always dream there being a Ghost in the Machine. The dream had elements from both "The Golem" and "Faust" Typical library dreams for me.
The Nazi eugenics part of the dream no doubt has something to do with what I suspect that Monsanto and the US government are up to together. They want to genetically engineer US children so that they can survive the coming Millennium.

Guest dream post by my naturalist nephew (Dirk Diddly): Climate Change apocalypse in 2100, from Iran to Illinois
My Naturalist nephew & I have been chatting and meeting more regularly since we attended the Southern Illinois Biodiversity Conference 2 weeks ago. James Hansen retired from NASA last Wednesday to focus around the PR problem of convincing the US public in the polls that climate change matters as an national issue as well as internationally. Most of them apparently consider it even more abstractly than they do the Trans-Pacific Partnership treaty with southeast Asia. Nevertheless it is these two polarizing problems that are seated on either side of the Keystone XL oil pipeline Politics. In order for the US to take part in 21st century Climate Change mitigation and prosecution of corporate eco-criminals, the TPP treaty must fail. And in order for the TPP to succeed, the Canadian tar sands development and other fossil fuel project decisions must not take into account "environmental externalities" the biggest one being Climate Change. They are both competitive and mutually exclusive with one another. Consequently the latest environmental tumblr blog I am looking at is "Neoliberalism-Kills" after the secret terms of the TPP that have Western governments murdering their own future citizens through non-enforcement of environmental crimes. My nephew knows my strong positions on the matter, so that has probably affected his dreams. I wiped my own chat log from Saturday so this is a copy of his chat.

I had another odd dream about us being in weird places last night
[17:14:27]
We were some years into a future wrecked by climate change
[17:15:08]
The northeastern US west to Illinois had renamed itself to Iran and had a permenant desert climate
[17:16:01]
We were walking from Missouri, which was only sl
[11:11:42] >> ightly less deserted and fucked up, into the new Iran for reasons unknown
[17:16:36]
We walked many miles, cars were outlawed b/c of their climate change contribution tho we still saw them occasionally driven of course by rich pigs
[17:17:05]
They had stations set up every 20 miles or so for wayfarers equipped with stagnant water to drink and rudimentary restrooms
[17:17:28]
We were mostly the only ones on the road, others rarely left their homes
[17:18:05]
We made it all the way to central illinois or so to an airport where we planned to immigrate to more hospitible country
[17:18:44]
but when we got there you started walking back and said you'd rather walk back for some reason
[17:19:30]
end of dream lol
[17:19:52]
didn't make much sense
[17:20:36] [oldParasiteSingle - 25.80.239.98]
actually it does kind of
[17:21:17] [oldParasiteSingle - 25.80.239.98]
I told you about Skilling/fermilab predictions right?
[17:22:01]
possibly
[17:22:02] [oldParasiteSingle - 25.80.239.98]
Friday he said that Illinois climate in 2100 would be like East Texas in the summer and Chicago would be like Reading, PA in the winter
[17:22:32] [oldParasiteSingle - 25.80.239.98]
that means itll be hotter than hell with a snow dump in the winter but almost no rain
[17:23:07]
huh
[17:23:11] [oldParasiteSingle - 25.80.239.98]
we will still be able to farm probably with irrigation and aquaculture
[17:23:14]
already seems to be getting there

[17:23:28]
that's about how I would describe the last coupla years
[17:24:16] [oldParasiteSingle - 25.80.239.98]
anyway your dream suggests that we would be climate change refugees from the oppressive desertification, but that I would want to turn back to my only home once you are safe
[17:25:06]
IDK I would want to leave if half the country became Iran and turned into a rocky desert wasteland XD
[17:25:12] [oldParasiteSingle - 25.80.239.98]
its only natural you would think that way since I traveled extensively for a few years bef
[11:11:42] >> ore coming back to stay
[17:25:51] [oldParasiteSingle - 25.80.239.98]
actually Iran isnt a wasteland like north africa
[17:26:36] [oldParasiteSingle - 25.80.239.98]
It probably will be some ind of no mans land after 2100 but itll be one of the last Middle East countriies to do so
[17:27:15] [oldParasiteSingle - 25.80.239.98]
Pakistan and Afghanistan along with India will be unholy hells tho
[17:27:43] [oldParasiteSingle - 25.80.239.98]

I had another odd dream about us being in weird places last night
[17:14:27]
We were some years into a future wrecked by climate change
[17:15:08]
The northeastern US west to Illinois had renamed itself to Iran and had a permenant desert climate
[17:16:01]
We were walking from Missouri, which was only sl
[11:11:42] >> ightly less deserted and fucked up, into the new Iran for reasons unknown
[17:16:36]
We walked many miles, cars were outlawed b/c of their climate change contribution tho we still saw them occasionally driven of course by rich pigs
[17:17:05]
They had stations set up every 20 miles or so for wayfarers equipped with stagnant water to drink and rudimentary restrooms
[17:17:28]
We were mostly the only ones on the road, others rarely left their homes
[17:18:05]
We made it all the way to central illinois or so to an airport where we planned to immigrate to more hospitible country
[17:18:44]
but when we got there you started walking back and said you'd rather walk back for some reason
[17:19:30]
end of dream lol
[17:19:52]
didn't make much sense
[17:20:36] [oldParasiteSingle - 25.80.239.98]
actually it does kind of

I told you about Skilling/fermilab predictions right?
[17:22:01]
possibly
[17:22:02] [oldParasiteSingle - 25.80.239.98]
Friday he said that Illinois climate in 2100 would be like East Texas in the summer and Chicago would be like Reading, PA in the winter
[17:22:32] [oldParasiteSingle - 25.80.239.98]
that means itll be hotter than hell with a snow dump in the winter but almost no rain
[17:23:07]
huh
[17:23:11] [oldParasiteSingle - 25.80.239.98]
we will still be able to farm probably with irrigation and aquaculture
[17:23:14]
already seems to be getting there

[17:23:28]
that's about how I would describe the last coupla years
[17:24:16] [oldParasiteSingle - 25.80.239.98]
anyway your dream suggests that we would be climate change refugees from the oppressive desertification, but that I would want to turn back to my only home once you are safe
[17:25:06]
IDK I would want to leave if half the country became Iran and turned into a rocky desert wasteland XD
[17:25:12] [oldParasiteSingle - 25.80.239.98]
its only natural you would think that way since I traveled extensively for a few years bef

[17:25:51] [oldParasiteSingle - 25.80.239.98]
actually Iran isnt a wasteland like north africa
[17:26:36] [oldParasiteSingle - 25.80.239.98]
It probably will be some ind of no mans land after 2100 but itll be one of the last Middle East countriies to do so
[17:27:15] [oldParasiteSingle - 25.80.239.98]
Pakistan and Afghanistan along with India will be unholy hells tho

Equinox, Old Ones, vampire queen, liche priest, animals, nature, sunlight dreams
Dream diary update. I usually expect weird disturbing dreams on the equinox and this time was no exception. Perhaps the oddest thing was really that my disabled naturalist nephew had dreams about being caught by a tentacled deep sea creature. One of HP Lovecraft's Old Ones no doubt, although he put it in context of sea life anatomy. Chat log:
[14:37:24] [25.237.132.57 / 2620:9b::19ed:8439 - Dirk Diddly]
I had a really weird "dream". I could swear I was basically awake, but I could not move and I saw this huge gelatinous tentacled creature advance upon me and caress me with its tentacles
[14:37:33] [25.237.132.57 / 2620:9b::19ed:8439 - Dirk Diddly]
it freaked me the fuck out
[14:37:50] [25.237.132.57 / 2620:9b::19ed:8439 - Dirk Diddly]
but when I "woke" up there was no change of scenery
[14:37:58] [25.237.132.57 / 2620:9b::19ed:8439 - Dirk Diddly]
the creature just disappeared
[14:39:09] [25.237.132.57 / 2620:9b::19ed:8439 - Dirk Diddly]
I'm not sure if I was awake and still in a dream state at the same time somehow or if I just happened to dream that I was laying in the recliner facing the kitchen in exactly the way I actually was during the dream
[14:39:13] [25.237.132.57 / 2620:9b::19ed:8439 - Dirk Diddly]
no way to tell
[14:39:29] [25.237.132.57 / 2620:9b::19ed:8439 - Dirk Diddly]
It was a WEIRD fuckin creature
[14:40:34] [25.237.132.57 / 2620:9b::19ed:8439 - Dirk Diddly]
its tentacles were like lampreys and it was glowy blue, looked like one of those big assed siphonohores tryin to wrap itself around my head

hi
[15:18:22]
thats a nice equinox dream
[15:18:39]
my equinox dream was odd too
Well, I didn't tell him my equinox dream. Its because it was a disturbing gender bender one. I dreamed I was a character from one of my favorite anime, Saya from Blood+. She's a vampire hunter queen with a sword. Also I dreamed that we (her assistant Chevalier, Haji, and I) were trapped in a cell deep underground with only candlelight to illuminate our attempts to escape. We were fighting all types of undead, not just vampires. There wasn't any time for food or sex. I was about to surrender to the liche priest when I awoke. It was just 1 hour before the equinox at 6:02 AM CDT. I'm not much of a gamer but my nephews are constantly reminding me about how tough they are whenever I talk to them about Baldur's Gate and other games we used to play together.
My other dreams during the equinox were last night and they were mostly nature, animals, animal spirits, and sunlight. I woke after midnight concerned about my animal friends and the cats all glommed me after I came downstairs to blog in bed.

Ash, Yew crown, Harvest King, and angel's wings dreams
Dream diary update. Its been at least 6 weeks since my last entry. That is the desired interval, so that the blogging doesn't interfere with my sleep or rhythms. I just want to use it as sort of an imagination diary, to keep track of new ideas that occur to me in my dreams. It also helps me to focus on my prognostications (my tumblr news analysis blog.) I frequently wake up seemingly knowing things that I probably have no right or reason to know.
Lately my sleep has been disturbed at night, so I nap at midday. It became more disturbed Monday after 2 of the tomcats didn't come home. Dad assures me that they took up w/ a female cat in heat at the Mexicans' place next door. They stayed away during a cold snap, but they must be getting fed there.
Today I dropped off twice at midday. First time I woke up and immediately changed the tv to watch Illinois Lawmakers/WSIU interview IL Rep Mike Madigan on environmental concerns he has about the new fracking bill. Then I ate lunch and dropped off again.
I slept the second time with Swirly kitten while sitting up on the couch. I dreamed that I was in a fiery pit at Mount Pinatubo.
I rose up into the clouds with the ash. While soaring above the clouds, an angel flew up from behind and embraced me. I became aware of her first by seeing her wings enfold me. She drew my neck back with her delicate fingers until I saw her eyes and kissed her. I became aware that others around us were singing "Rise" by Oriya from the anime OP for "Ghost in the Shell: S.A.C. 2nd Gig."
I realized that there were more white wings around us. She gestured down and I witnessed the mountain forests growing and unfolding in natural majesty. Gold and Silver oak leaves and red maple flew together on the wind while colorful rainbows cut through the mountain clouds. I became aware of a yew crown atop my head. I realized I was to be the Harvest King this year. Finally I awoke to the sounds of Oriya sighing and the smells of birch or wintergreen. I thought I could still feel angel wings stroking my face, but as my eyes focused I could see that I was just waking in our drab living room..I immediately changed the tv to watch cspan 2 and Senator Rand Paul's filibuster of John Brennan/CIA over the drone memos.
Interpretation: I have no idea why I was wearing a fairy crown and not a crown of iron or thorns like I usually do. The only reason why I might've dreamed about a good harvest is that the CME group/Bloomberg business report on @WGNnews today at noon announced that the eastern US is free of drought and now expected to have a bumper crop of corn in 2013. I was nodding off/hypnotized when I heard it. The natural setting reminded me of fractal landscapes. It was much more vivid and colorful a palette than reality.
