I had a dream where an ancient philosopher was talking about the relative weights of the digits in a world where every digit of an nearly infinitely, continuously randomly generated number encodes a state of some aspect of the world, like if it will flood or if the people will have enough food, etc

Umbra dream queue: I had a dream a flood was overwhelming everything, and the only way I could stop it was using a device that could reverse time. Kind of like a combo of Noah's Ark/other primordial flood stories and Legend Of Zelda Majora's Mask. It was wet and wild.
Had a dream last night in which the house we were looking after was caught in a terrible flood and submerged and I’m doing fine juggling all the work why do you ask
The account below is me! Collecting dreams again!!

Had a dream about huge waves because of climate change and the surfers were loving it
One of my follies, that I find important and fascinating, although no one else does - is the large dream collection projects that I run

“I had a dream that I was surrounded by Inuit women artists, and they threw the torch to me and said, ‘OK, show us what you have.’” Ashley Qilavaq-Savard author of I AM A ROCK, published by Inhabit Media, about her first dream in Inuktitut nunatsiaq.com/stories/arti...
I had a dream that I had a plastic houseplant and it still died.
Probably nothing to read into there
I dreamed that climate change was deliberately caused by billionaires who needed better conditions to grow their brain-enhancing meteor spores.
"The majority (57%) of Gen Z and Millennials have dreamed about climate change, according to the survey. That’s compared to 35% of Gen Xers and just 14% of Boomers."

Last night I dreamed that it rained. I know, rain is a hoax, just like climate change, I shouldn't waste dream time on things like that. (No rain here since July 15, but 24 days of 100+).
I dreamed I was in the wilderness with many stunned and lost formerly privileged climate refugees- teaching them about the importance of being able to live with uncertainty.
I dreamed that every town government had to pick an IPCC climate scenario to follow, and if they picked one that puts us over 1.5 degrees of warming they have to install huge air horns of shame around the town borders that would go off to let tourists know where they’re at
hahahahaha
I had that dread and as a child from the era of Saturday morning cartoons, I affixed it to black holes.
But when I was 9 I dreamed the world was dying in climate catastrophe right down to the ocean catching fire and only the old men could stop it...
I had a dream last night that I was working for Scalia (not like as a job? more like he was a professor reading my essays or something) and he wanted me to use a laser temperature reader thingy to take readings of Lake Michigan to prove global warming was fake.
Yacht there were women in the sea who looked like they were walking on water but really had very tall pleasers on and were walking on the sea bed & I wanted to try those shoes but I was nervous I'd fall if I trod on a stone also I was eating salt and vinegar crisps, caramel chocolate & fish & chips
Then I realised I'd lent my friend my fluffy backpack that I don't actually own and she had left it near the poopy toilet so I was trying to shove all her stuff into one bag so I could take it and then I went on a bike with a sat nav to try and find treasure in a graveyard. Oh yeah and near the 2/
Had a really weird dream last night that I was homeless in London and trying to get back home on the train and I saw the most enormous yacht and got mad at rich people for global warming and I went to a party and Betty white from the golden girls had shat on the floor for a prank near the toilet.
I had a dream like 2 weeks ago that I had a nasty widows peak and that i spent 20 minutes looking for staten island on google maps but it was underwater from global warming
Had a dream last night that by popular acclamation, I was made King of the World. And I fixed everything. Hunger, poverty, war, greed, climate change were all gone and humanity was entering a golden age.
And then just before I woke up, I thought
"Oh fuck I forgot about the fucking murder hornets"

My sustainability scientist sister had a dream
about me doing some fieldwork about climate adaptation and holding a handful of dripping wet sphagnum moss wrapped around something smooth (like a pebble).
Send your #Climate and #ClimateCrisis dreams here, the collective unconscious speaks, listen...
Had a dream last night that I -- and either @glenngiven.bsky.social or @danielbrian.bsky.social -- were defending a ferryboat full of climate refugees by using Harry Potter spells. Apparently, I was saying them in my sleep.
I had a dream the other night that alligators' native range expanded into the midwest region because of climate change. Probably not that unrealistic.
