Dream Thread

Some time ago (probably before Trump innaguration) I had a dream with Biden. We was in White House, when sudenly we was ordered go in nuclear bunker (there was special door on the floor). I saw on sreen of tablet pc missle launch warming with fight path (many missles). And was conversarion should we start massive responce now or wait a bit).
It was long ago, so I don't remember more details. But it was defenetly start of nuclear war))
 
I am a part of Trump's security detail. It's not because I'm Secret Service. For some reason, in this case, it is thought to be strategic to have an average citizen be near him rather than secret service. The event is outside, but we're in a kind of portico space. I'm seated next to him on a bench. My gun, a rifle, is under the bench. In the dream that's all part of the strategy of protecting him, though I can't explain to you why that would be. In the dream, I am more skilled in firearms than I am in real life, so it's at least plausible that I could have been tapped for this duty. In the dream, there's none of the RL distaste I have for Trump. I'm like intellectually aware that he's a president I don't favor, but I have no strong feelings against him. Also in the dream, Trump isn't being his usually obnoxious self in any way. He's just sitting on the bench. We don't converse. The only remarkable aspect of being that near to him is my being able to see clearly that he has a bulletproof vest beneath his suit. The event goes off without an incident, and Trump just disappears from the dream--goes on his way, I guess. Whoever has organized the event for some reason thinks the citizens who have been involved might need some time to process the event, so there's a kind of chapel area where you could spend some time praying or just meditating about what just happened (even though nothing happened). It's kind of heavily expected that everyone involved will (and will want to) do something in this meditation room, so I join the line that is forming. The number of people who had been involved surprises me. I knew in the dream that I hadn't been the only one, but there are thirty or forty people who gather to form this line, and that's more than I had known there were.

Funny to me to have Trump figure in a dream and it's drained of all of my RL feelings about Trump.
Very charming. Possibly the chapel is there to cleanse from the feeling they served a reprehensible purpose but still had to repress that for the duration of service? (and Trump is just the choice for the metaphor)
 
Well, there are no such feelings in me. The overall mood of the dream is ho-hum. I had a job to do. I (and the others) achieved our set purpose. End of story. When I learn that it's the final stage of the experience, I'm surprised that anyone thinks this chapel is necessary. I don't really know what I'm going to do in it when my turn comes; just pretend to meditate for a while and move on. It doesn't quite rise to the level of me being resentful of the expectation, and wanting to rebel against it. I figure there's no harm in my going through the motions if someone thinks this is worthwhile.

I myself have pulled away from following all of Trump's antics as closely as I did for the previous nine years. So I in fact am feeling more ho-hum about him lately, just because I'm no longer exposing myself to his outrage-du-jour.
 
Then maybe the dream is about inquiring as to the possible emotional or other likeness or lack of it for others who are "more ho-hum" (and had been for a while)?
 
:dunno:
 
One of the weirdest dreams I have ever had was being at an Ethiopian cuisine restaurant. I have never had Ethiopian cuisine. I don't even know any Ethiopian dish
