I don't often have dreams or remember my dreams, when I do they're usually either me somehow being back in school despite graduating over 20 years ago, or I'm living some better version of my life that I end up feeling bad about after I wake up. But I've had a couple recently that were a bit out of the ordinary for me and are making me wonder if it's possible to have a dream that, albeit a fictional scenario, seems otherwise plausible and logical.

For instance, the dream I just had involved me arriving at work (which I always drive to because USA), but in my dream I didn't drive. When I got there I put a blanket down in a parking space, then pretended to pull a car into the space over the blanket, and pretended to also lock up the car afterward. I acknowledged a fellow "coworker" (I put this in quotes because it wasn't someone I recognize from real life but in the context of the dream I knew them as a coworker) passing by as I "parked" my "car" and they treated it as perfectly normal. As an aside while I type this, I don't know that I've ever driven in a dream I had.

As I approached the store I work at (which was in the location of an old job I had ~20 years ago rather than my current job's location), there was a sticker on the door saying that the store had changed locations, but didn't say where or have any other details. Given I had just worked there yesterday this came as a surprise to me and my other "coworkers" outside (quotes again because none of them were actual people I work with).

Among said coworkers was one person dressed in a suit (I work in food service) who was actually like 3 different colored versions of the same person (think of a multiplayer game like Gauntlet where you have like a red wizard, yellow wizard, etc.). He was arguing with someone else that he was a warlock lawyer, the other person was insisting he's a wizard. As I looked around the crowd of my coworkers gathered outside I saw the only person I recognize from my actual life, my boss's boss, our district manager, who also was unaware of the store moving location, and was trying to find out more information.

Anyway, that's where the dream ended, thanks for reading this far if you have. What weird dreams have you had lately? Do you remember having any dreams that just made you go "yeah, that seemed normal, I could see that happening hypothetically?"

Pretty much the title. I have time to go see a movie this week, but can't decide between Novocaine and Mickey 17. No spoilers, please and thank you.

Edit: Thanks for the input all, I've decided to see Novocaine based on your comments.

Currently, if your eyes are closed you can still get a sense of the light around you, and moving your head around you can tell if you're moving it toward or away from a light source (barring maybe if you're outdoors and it's bright out all around you).

But what if when we closed our eyes it was like full blackout? Would blinking become disorienting? Could it mess up circadian rhythms? Something else? Or would it not really matter?

Hi all, not sure if there's a better place in the fediverse to ask, but I'm looking for suggestions for a 2 player game. Something that is pretty quick in terms of set up, learning, and play. My go to for this scenario right now is the Tacocat game by the makers of Exploding Kittens, but I'd like to branch out and try some others if they fit the bill. Doesn't necessarily have to be for 2 players specifically but preferable if that's what it's designed for. Heck doesn't necessarily have to be a board game really, just something to play face to face (I mean, I don't really know what the alternative would be other than a straight up card game but that's why I'm asking for recommendations).

Had this one pop in my head a few weeks ago but couldn't remember the word "copacetic" for like a full day
