I had a dream recently where I was guiding a civilisation over multiple thousands of years. Att the end of the dream when they had finally overcome their problems, one of them said to me 'being a person, when really you're just a blob of goo, is the most profound thing you could ever do.'

And it hit me so hard. All I am is a bunch of cells held together in a skin bag. And yet I'm a person with feelings and experiences and desires. And I did that, I live it. It makes us all so valuable.

Have your dreams ever had effects on you like that?

A large part of me really wants to believe that skiing video game was SkiFree 95.

... Because I probably had bad dreams about that yeti as a kid LOL

    Hah! I remember the game, but I don't think that was it.

    I saw it on a Discovery documentary or something in high school, as I recall. There were a few shots of the test subject playing a sports skiing console game of some sort
