Edited a weird old dream entry: two dudes, half-socks, a green department store, archaic vocabulary, questionable adolescent phrasing, & the haunting possibility that embarrassment is just loneliness trying to get noticed.
I've been heavily processing lately. Lots of dreams.
Last night it was me arguing with my MAGA brother, who also IRL refused to help me when I was in crisis caretaking our mother until I left (now he's stuck with her).
In the dream he had a full-sized love android, and I'd seen her be violent but he hadn't, so he was denying it. I didn't want to be around her because I knew she'd kill me by order of the government surveillance apparatus. And I was trying to convince my brother of this, and of the fascism of it all. I was trying to use my questions method, but he just kept completely avoiding and deflecting. I started just screaming at him.
The setting was a series of connected shops right on the Canadian border, so I was jumping back and forth by crossing from the diner to the gift shop while other things were going on.
I was in a dilapidated warehouse and shot someone during a societal collapse. I'm not sure if he really died but his corpse kept reanimating and taunting me telepathically.
I was then in a high rise apartment where an earthquake happened and the building tipped over with me in it. #dreamjournal
**Describing Perth as to how it most often appears in my dreams**
**Perth CBD/City of Perth**
Where St George’s/Adelaide Terrace starts is where the CBD usually starts for me in my dream. Many of the street/road names are the same, the ones that I can remember ie St George’s/Adelaide Terrace, Wellington Street, Barrack Street, Hay Street, Victoria Street, William Street etc. But that’s pretty much it in terms of similarities or recognisability. Frankly it probably looks more like Birnin Zana, the city in Wakanda than it does the Perth CBD. :P
Those streets aren’t the paved/asphalt streets in the real-world Perth, but are narrower with cobblestone and more windy. There's trams/light rail which actual real-world Perth doesn't have.
Street signs and shop names used to be in Chinese, English and sometimes German for whatever reason. However since I’ve learned some Noongar language in the past 5 years or so, Noongar is included often now and even replaces the English sometimes ie “Mandjarli-miya” (Bread-house) for Bakery/Patisserie. “Mangka-miya” (Tea-house) for well Teahouse or Café. Some real world Noongar names show up because I’ve seen them so many times in the past few years like Derbal Yerigan (The Swan River), Moort-ak Waadiny (Wellington Square), Matagarap (the section of river near the Optus Stadium which also has a bridge named after it) and Boola Bardip (The WA Museum)
