I have dreamed of forgetting to wear a mask at a large maskless gathering every night for at least the past week. STOOOOOOOOOOP.

If the pandemic is still affecting your daily life, what sort of pandemic dreams have you all been having? Or do you dream of going to movies and parties and other Before Times?

The majority of my pandemic dreams are also about being maskless, usually at a grocery store (the only place I ever go at all anymore in real life) or, for some reason, Target. In the dreams, no one else is ever wearing a mask, and at first I think everything is normal, until I remember that there's a pandemic on and why is my mask still in the car? or did I leave it at home? and is it even worth bothering if literally nobody else is wearing one?

I've also dreamed twice about having my tires slashed. In the first dream, I called the tire shop, but they told me they couldn't fit my car in for new tires because everyone's tires were being slashed, all across the city, and they were booked out for days. The second dream was another not-wearing-a-mask dream, but when I went to get my mask from my car, I remembered that I hadn't driven my car because the tires had all been slashed, so I had no idea where my mask was.

I also keep dreaming about people I know dying, which is something I've almost never dreamed about before. :/

But then in the midst of pandemic dreams last night, I also dreamed I was watching a weird Star Trek movie that involved Captain Kirk in cowboy getup riding a horse off of a magical island into the ocean, then onto an alien space ship powered by special crystals, where there turned out to be a crisis because the only family of aliens who knew how to make the ship-powering crystals had gone on strike. Which is basically a totally normal dream for me.
