A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Avoid politics
- NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
- Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
- Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct-----

Under extreme circumstances too. A place you have never seen, while your running is slower than your real life walking, your punches barely do anything, and If you fall from your height, then it's game over. Also color? what's that?
If you want to "fix" those dreams. Just check your back pocket, you'll likely find whatever weapon would most deal with the "problem" behind you.
You can run or punch, because the body's motion is being suppressed. You are fine to operate guns or heavy ordnance (up too as past an anime grade mecha suit. And yes, in a dream world, it will fit in your back pocket or other hammerspace equivalent!)
I often can "will" myself telekinetic powers, but only if I've noticed it's a dream, which means I will quickly wake up.
Dream monsters too pussy to fight me with powers.
I should try something like that next time I try to go lucid. Somehow I only stuck to flying around and flying through walls whenever I knew I was dreaming... feels like a waste now that I think of firing guns or using telekinesis.
