My friend moved to LA for a couple years but from what I've seen that place is a cesspool/playground for narcissists. Don't think I could see myself moving there.

My hippy mom us to get so visible flustered when a lady with too much perfume would get in our vicinity in public that it would embarrass the s*** out of us as kids but now I'm absolutely the same way I got a real strong sense of smell so it f***ing kills me

Idaho and a big chunk of Oregon is still beautiful. There’s a petition to turn a portion of Oregon into “The greater Idaho” because it wants nothing to do with Portland

Dude I’ve seen too many lives completely lost or ruined to ever f*** with opioids. I’ve never been into d**** or alcohol tbh

Think I'd hit Portland if I were to fly over there, or San Francisco. LA seems like a fun place to party for a bit but by all accounts yeah it's toxic and weird af.

Yeah I just forget them immediately so then basically don't exist

I did have one wicked lucid dream when I was like 20 where I found Thor's hammer and was trying to learn how to fly around our valley with it for hours

Also had a few lottery winnings dreams that were so depressing when I woke up I wanted to die

hmm I actually don't totally agree that it's nonsense because usually I can connect about 50% of the dream with actual things happening in my life, usually in a somewhat abstract way, but sometimes not that abstract. but i'd say like at least 50 percent of it is bullshit.

the Freudian idea of dream a***ysis is definitely not totally correct but is pretty interesting to think about since we still don't really have any idea why we dream or where they come from. like what is the fabric/form of dreams or even consciousness, are images of consciousness purely metaphysical or somewhat physical in nature?

I think I told you of this essay Cormac wrote about the subconscious/dreams, and the Kekulé problem. really nice short little essay I'd still recommend and you can see its influence in his final two books. I appreciate him for writing a great essay that isn't academic/jargony sounding whatsoever. He was the man

https://nautil.us/the-kekul-problem-236574/

"I call it the Kekulé Problem because among the myriad instances of scientific problems solved in the sleep of the inquirer Kekulé’s is probably the best known. He was trying to arrive at the configuration of the benzene molecule and not making much progress when he fell asleep in front of the fire and had his famous dream of a snake coiled in a hoop with its tail in its mouth—the ouroboros of mythology—and woke exclaiming to himself: “It’s a ring. The molecule is in the form of a ring.” Well. The problem of course—not Kekulé’s but ours—is that since the unconscious understands language perfectly well or it would not understand the problem in the first place, why doesnt it simply answer Kekulé’s question with something like: “Kekulé, it’s a bloody ring.” To which our scientist might respond: “Okay. Got it. Thanks.”

Why the snake? That is, why is the unconscious so loathe to speak to us? Why the images, metaphors, pictures? Why the dreams, for that matter......"

......."The picture-story lends itself to parable. To the tale whose meaning gives one pause. The unconscious is concerned with rules but these rules will require your cooperation. The unconscious wants to give guidance to your life in general but it doesnt care what toothpaste you use. And while the path which it suggests for you may be broad it doesnt include going over a cliff. We can see this in dreams. Those disturbing dreams which wake us from sleep are purely graphic. No one speaks. These are very old dreams and often troubling. Sometimes a friend can see their meaning where we cannot. The unconscious intends that they be difficult to unravel because it wants us to think about them. To remember them. It doesnt say that you cant ask for help. Parables of course often want to resolve themselves into the pictorial. When you first heard of Plato’s cave you set about reconstructing it."
