I was playing an immersive survival-crafting game set on a steep riverbank.  The gameplay involved hunting and being hunted by a dragon, who looked a lot like Falcor the Luck Dragon in retrospect.  His face would slowly emerge from the river or from thick bushes, and I would have to notice and drive him off or run before he attacked.  He would usually appear from behind, so I had to listen carefully for rustling leaves or the like.

It could have been scary (Slenderman-style jump scare games put me on edge) but the crafting made it fun, also I knew it was just a game (not that it was a dream though heh).

At the end I used an oar to slide a dead squid from the water, fending off two remarkably amphibious octopi.  I was planning to eat it, but woke up ):

Had a dream i was a cop searching some guys property for people he kidnapped. There was nothing in the house itself so i was looking for secret compartments and shit, but again couldnt find any. So then i was searching the grounds outside and the nearby forest. No luck. At some point i was down by the lake and found a bunch of teenagers screwing around late at night, so started asking them if they knew anything useful about it. Then weird shit started happening. One guy just vanished, and as we were all leaving the kids crashed their car. Then more of them vanished. I called for backup or something and then they crashed their car and then vanished. Then i found a bunch of tiny mounds in the ground where someone had been digging, so logically i dug them up. And i started finding tiny things that looked like babies with plants growing out of them and a hockey mask, exactly like Jason's mask in the movies. So i freaked out and ran.

Huh, I think I got married.  To... literally Ethan from ShortPacked?  Okay then

Didn't get to the actual ceremony, it was mostly pre-planning and then enjoying a lavish catered dinner with lots of family members and strangers.  Huh.
It also took place in the mountain city I just finished moving out of (was up till 6AM driving).  Heh, figures.  Still, remarkably nice dream for being so social.  The food was very good.

This.. is a strange one..

In my latest weird dream, I was with some acquaintances of mine on a road trip on a bus.
When we arrived to some town, it felt like some sort of tactical FPS, with the enemies being zombies in heavy riot gear. And just not any kind of zombies, but the kind that is capable of thinking and knows how to use guns for some reason.
And before I knew it, I was throwing weird naked clones of myself off a jagged cliff,
them having Skyrim ragdoll physics didn't make it any less weirder.
And all the clones seem to be quite nonchalant about me throwing them.

I wonder What would Freud have to say about my dream, should he have been alive today.

Dreamt about making all the mistakes at work. Putting the wrong types of refuse in the wrong bins, not stocking and facing shelves properly and so on. It was wonderfully stressful.

The other morning I woke up a bit early to go to the bathroom. Laid back down, fell back asleep, then jolted awake again. Then fell asleep, and jolted awake again. Then fell asleep and jolted awake again. Then jolted awake and realized I had been asleep and dreaming the whole thing.

Mmhm, that edge between awake and asleep is the sweetest
most terrifying
spot.
Two nights ago, outside a Waffle House.  I started awake from a much-needed nap, keyed the ignition, and rejoined the freeway.
All was well for 3-60 minutes.
My brakes didn't work.  I pulled the emergency brake, but still slid into the
Outside the Waffle House, at 3AM.  I started awake.

I was stuck on mars with a couple other people. We had a big metal thing we tried to make a building out of and a mobile home thing with like two days worth of air supply. And no idea what we were doing.

I haven't had a dream (or at least a good one) in a while, so I'll just tell a dream my friend has every so often.

so in the dream she is sitting in a car (for some reason she is always naked in the backseat), the car is being driven by a dog, and they're driving through the desert. every time she has that dream the car is different.

Do you think it might be related to brexit?
It would make a nice allegory wouldn't it? To clamber for escape but turn back to help others, but imo it would need more Boris dressed as the grim reaper. I've only ever had one dream related to brexit, and though I can't remember when it was, it was simply a replay of the day the votes were being held: And I dreamed I was as I was back then, sitting by the window, seeing the rain pouring down over the night and the black lake, shining under the streetlight, as I drank my tea wondering at what was to come.

I just remember a little scene from last night's dream. I was walking along, took a look over my shoulder, and saw that lots of cash had been falling out of my back pocket. Kind of a ridiculous amount. And instead of telling me, people were just silently grabbing it off the ground and walking away

In real life, I had a few dollars fall out of my pocket this week, but nobody stole it. I guess my mind wants me to be more paranoid about that.

I was a tailor, constructing a rather nice dress. I paused to make some tea, and the dream ended there, for I awoke rather thirsty and needed to make tea. It was altogether a rather uneventful dream, but I do remember the dress itself was a burgundy thing, made of two textiles woven together. The only other detail of note was that my supposed office, wherein I made all these clothes, appeared not to be any office or workshop for a tailor, but a place for carpets. It was a nice & simple dream

Had a few dreams last night, at least a couple of which were rather stressful though I can't remember why or what they were about.
Uggghh. It's hot and I'm hungry+stressed and my brain is turning to jelly. What I could remember of the dream is rapidly slipping away from me and the whole thing probably isn't that interesting anyway, but I'm glad I at least got around to recording it - gotta practice to remember dreams more often, after all. :)
I should probably watch the real movie now...

Dreamt i had a job as security and maintenance crew in space. First i had to figure out the public transport network because the shuttle that could take me from my homeworld to the station i worked on in another star system didnt go back, i had to find two other routes through two unrelated systems to get home after work. Then while on duty, because it was my job to shoot space monsters that attacked the station, i shot a bunch of bunny-women through a window. Totally trashed that door since i didnt open it first, but the rabbits were floating threateningly so they had to die i guess. Nobody cared about them, only the door i shot them through, they even acknowledged that five out of six of them were people (the last one was some sort of organic breeding machine that had no brain or something. This seems weird now but in the dream it was like whatever, floating menacingly in the void is a capital offense, terrorist furries! Then there were customers who couldnt find their rooms or something i dunno and i had to clean and restock stuff. And all this time i had wickedly long flowing hair, like 12 inches or some shit i had a pony tail. I cant even have hair that long irl its too fucking curly itd just turn into a tangled mess.
