niven's theoremmy faith in free will has been dashed. further experimentation is necessary
i had what i was certain was a lucid dream, even upon waking, except that the "me" who had that lucid dream was an IDIOT
if my brain can convince me that "i" am conscious and making choices, when in fact i am not, then the "its all a dream" theory is actually plausible. i always thought it was bullshit because i don't like theories that are just "ur brain trickd u tho11"
varx - social alt@cosine My least favorite "lucid dream" was when I dreamed that I was lucid dreaming but was in fact not. -.-
I've convinced myself of so many different stupid things in dreams. It's really quite astonishing. I think what's going on is that I don't have full access to my declarative memory and I'm just pattern-matching my way to plausibility.
@varx i've had a few of those but usually i become aware of it when i wake up
