@alice let's put it differently, if you had a dream where you believed quite vividly that you had died, and woke up abruptly in cold sweat and an elevated pulse and whatever other such physiological reactions one tends to have in reaction to those circumstances, would it be accurately to say 'I died last night"?
@evan the mind is part of the body. So body covers it. My reputation is within the minds of others, so its not me, although it might sometimes affect me.
@alice in the hypothetical situation you described, the person had a vivid hallucination and then maybe also experienced an involuntary philological response to it while unconscious. that is very different than actually having sex with someone
@alice I have made choices in my dreams that I would have never made in real life. If someone tried to judge me for the things that happen in my dreams that person would be out of my life so fast.
As folks probably know, I am a big fan of enabling federation features on software that people already use or have installed. I like that Nextcloud has a Social application that implements ActivityPub; it's not working well right now.https://apps.nextcloud.com/apps/social
A raccoon to appreciate for Raccoon Appreciation Day! I appreciate raccoons; they are really quite extraordinary. This little guy came to my back door like that to politely inquire where I had moved the compost bin to. I snapped his photo and carved his portrait.#raccoon #linocut #printmaking #typography #highFive #urbanEcology #washi #RacoonAppreciationDay #mastoArt
