I don't usually post publicly about this dream stuff, but I'm just...curious. How many of you find a large amount of similarities between yourself and your dream self, and how many of you find that you're completely different from the person you dream of?

I can't decide which one is worse. I'm...very similar to my person, even things that happened long before I started dreaming of him seem to have an echo in these dreams. tbh sometimes it kind of reminds me of that movie Us, like we're tethered to one another, and what happens to one happens to the other in at least some capacity. Only, luckily neither world is a dark underground bunker and also I don't think my dream-self is capable of murdering me or vice-versa. Anyway. Sometimes it sucks, but then I was also thinking it probably sucks to dream of someone really different, too, especially if they were like...a bad guy, or something.

Anyway. I guess I'm just kind of wondering what other people experience on this front.

Well, she's a cyborg, right? So everything is wired into her brain, so they act like regular limbs. My arm and hand is pretty great, but nothing like that. I have to program in different hand positions, while she just has to, you know, move it. It's pretty amazing. We're not as far away from that kind of tech as they were when I was her age, but being able to dream it is something else.

	That does sound pretty awesome...it's crazy to think how people will be able to do that one day, like rewire a brain. So you dream of some time in the future? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

I don't know if it will ever happen in my lifetime, but it makes me happy to think that it might be achieved in someone else's. I don't remember having my arm and leg because I was so young when I lost them, but I like thinking that another kid in the same position might get a totally different experience. But, yeah. It's the future or some version of it? Some stuff is pretty different.

	That sort of technology would really do a lot of good for people. Hopefully things just keep on progressing. What parts of it seemed different? (Reply to this) (Parent)
