I have experienced this where I work. There is a consulting company that gets rolled out to make packets full of "data", graphs, summaries, and surveys that always manages to support the unpopular thing the boss wants.

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.

Through the Looking Glass is very good, too. Then you might enjoy Stardust (Gaiman controversial author warning)

Project Hail Mary on audiobook. The narrator is great

If you launch on PieFed, which seems better all around, the server is still completely accessible by anyone who prefers to use Lemmy apps isn't it?

I get unreasonably annoyed at "Well yes and no."

It's never yes and no. Just answer the question.

Not really a phrase, but I also really hate this current trend of ending a sentence in a question mark to try and add that rising inflection that is already obnoxious enough in-person. I just don't like it?

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!

Same same. I have another Lemmy and my PieFed.

Logged into PieFed with the new Voyager beta!
