No, we have mnemonic defenses set up, so as soon as someone browsing the thread leaves the thread, they'll forget that the thought police exist. Until we pay them a personal visit. Our cover is safe.

Had a dream last night that started with something about this odd pinball-lottery-slot-machine-thing (not sure how to describe it). Then it switched into fighting some kind of gold-based nanomachine plague with two allies, one secret-agent-type dude and some kinda spy-catsuit chick who started as an enemy.

I also had a watch (or something) with a built-in AI that could give me a HUD with a motion tracker and stuff like that.

These gold-based nanomachines looked like giant piles of molten gold that would convert other matter into it somehow, like a Midas-touch thing. Last thing I remember is having to kill the secret-agent-dude and then having my hand turn to solid gold.

I dreamed I was inside the Looter's Delight game for real, only instead of only 6-10 players there were a literal thousand of them, and I can only assume a waitlist in the millions because new victims were spawning all the time. I spawned with a comically oversized extendable police baton; instead of being two-fingers wide like a regular baton, it was as wide as my leg. But holding it was as comfortable as holding a flashlight or regular sized baton. It dealt attacks strong enough to bring down a building and blow people's brains out. My first kill got me a riot shield to go with it; the shield was invisible from the front and made me invisible while behind it, and I could switch it from invisible mode to flashlight mode, where the shield emitted enough light to give second degree burns in a flash; but then it took a while to charge back up and was a perfectly normal clear plastic shield for a few minutes.
But after that no matter how many kills I got or how long I survived, I didn't get any more loot. I ambushed a guy who was loaded down with loot (judging by the amount of green, it's how my brain interpreted Berius) by blinding him with the shield and then smashing his head into paste with the baton, but his loot just vanished and I didn't get any new stuff. Heck, I even collapsed a warehouse on a group of 18 players who were organizing an alliance and STILL didn't get anything.

Just remember; the fun isn't in the material wealth obtained. It's in the body count left behind.

Had a weird(part of) dream where your tube's hardness is tested. I tested my own body for that. Then weird things happened: My vision in my dream changed to 3rd person, i was ejected from the building where you are tested being unharmed and then another person is dropped near me. Then i flung a tower into that building by just imagining it. That building shatters into pieces, and the tower i flung was still largely undamaged. I asked what kind of power did i have to that person, but before he could answer my question he ceased from existence.
I do think I could control my dreams unconsciously. If i could do it again, i will create a huge amount of super-powered characters of many stories and then fight them off in a city. Everyone had it's own mind.

Bizarro dream last night. The first part was about me trying to host a live-action Mafia game. Shakerag and notquitethere were mentioned by name. While explaining the scenario, I apparently got sidetracked and started talking about Norway.

Then the dream turned into a hazily-remembered portion about the Joker, who was hosting a banquet for Batman villains on top of a giant chandelier overtop of where Superman, Batman, and the like were having their own dinner. The Joker gave a speech about morality and political activism.

Then it smoothly segued into a dream about Dumbledore making Harry hide out in a giant library/safehouse overseen by a giant purple spider with reading glasses. Harry got angsty over how he couldn't invite Ron to stay with him, so Ron just randomly dropped by and the spider librarian tried to kill them because Ron's arrival compromised their secrecy.

10/10 best dream all month.

Last night I had a dumbass dream regarding the local native tribe hosting some event out by a waterfall. It was some sort of party, I was super excited, and then nothing much happened. There was a vague sense of the end of the world drawing near, though. The atmosphere was kind of melancholy despite all the joking.

Had a dream where an attempt to avoid disturbing a large web-nest of spiders near the cabinet where I keep my coffee resulted in me being covered in spiders. They bite.

I didn't get much sleep that night, needless to say.

A few days ago, dreamed that I accidentally killed my little brother. We were cutting down trees that were in our front yard for some reason (they were like giant versions of the trees at my grandfolk's place?) and one I knocked down fell on him. He was just there one second, then another... mush. I was incredibly relieved when I woke up.

There was a pink smear on the ground where he was standing and his bloody, mulched legs stuck to the underside :c

You have dreams about accidentally killing your brother, and I have dreams about my brother very much trying to kill me. Somewhere here, the dream fairy decided to become a statistician and assume that problems which have opposing effects simply don't exist because they don't change the model which she's using to demand more funding from the faerie king.

I was recruited to do a heist in a post-apocalyptic world, along with the main cast of Family Guy, for some reason. I also had somebody's brain in a jar, who kept telling me not to trust the guy who hired us.

Eventually I found a note from someone who had been recruited and killed before me in this base we were staying at saying that the heist was a hoax. So I activated the self-destruct sequence and escaped, leaving the one who hired us there.
