WHAT A FUCKING NIGHT I HADThere’s something fascinating about dreams: while they’re happening, everything feels completely normal. You can be running away from someone inside a shopping mall that suddenly turns into your old school playground, open a door and end up inside your grandma’s house, talk to someone whose face you can’t even properly see, or try to run while your legs feel like they’re made out of wet clay… and yet your brain never stops to think: “hold on, something here feels off.”
Then you wake up. Open your eyes. Ten seconds pass. And you think:
“what the fuck did I just dream?”.
Because dreams are weird as hell. Surreal. Incoherent. Sometimes they feel like they were edited by a drunk guy randomly stitching scenes together with absolutely no narrative logic whatsoever. And yet, there’s actually a pretty interesting explanation behind all of it.
When we fall asleep and enter the
REM phase —the stage where dreams become most intense— the brain completely changes the way it works. Some areas related to emotions, images and memories become highly active, while the part responsible for logic and rational thinking slows way down. In other words: your
emotional brain goes full power mode while the guy in charge of saying
“this makes no sense” is basically on vacation.
That’s why dreams allow you to accept
completely absurd situations as if they were perfectly normal. You can be having a serious conversation with your dentist inside a submarine piloted by your old math teacher and never question it for a second.
The brain doesn’t build dreams like a coherent movie. It builds them more like an
emotional collage. It links ideas, memories, sensations and people through fast and chaotic associations. Just like a song can instantly take you back to a specific moment in your life, emotions inside dreams can completely transform everything within seconds.
That’s where those
sudden scene changes with zero transition come from. You’re in a street. Then on a mountain. Then inside an office. Then underwater. Everything connected more through feelings than actual logic.
Then there’s the whole blurry faces thing. A lot of people dream about someone they “know” without actually seeing their facial features clearly. That happens because the brain often doesn’t bother creating a full hyper-realistic image. It only needs to generate the
sensation of recognition. Kind of like when you try remembering someone’s face from memory and know exactly who they are even if you can’t reconstruct every detail.
But probably one of the most universal dream experiences is trying to run and not being able to. Or punching in slow motion. Or moving like your whole body is trapped inside
jelly.
And here comes one of the craziest parts of all this: while you’re dreaming, your body is actually
almost completely paralyzed. Literally.
During REM sleep, the brain activates a mechanism called
muscle atonia, a temporary shutdown that prevents you from physically acting out your dreams. Basically, your body disconnects your muscles so you don’t end up doing parkour across your hallway while dreaming about escaping from a dinosaur.
The problem is that your brain mixes that real physical immobility with the story it’s creating. That’s why when you try escaping inside a dream, it feels like you’re running through concrete or like someone’s holding you from behind.
And the wildest part is that, while you’re inside the dream, you’re rarely aware of how absurd everything actually is. Your mind accepts the chaos as if it were perfectly reasonable. Until you wake up.
And then yeah. That’s when your brain comes back online, looks at the absolute nonsense it created during the night and probably thinks the exact same thing you do:
“okay… what kind of insane drug trip was that?”.
But let’s be honest: no matter how weird, chaotic or surreal dreams are, we all know which ones are the best.
Yep.
Wet dreams.
Because that’s when the brain completely removes every possible limit and decides to produce something that feels like Hollywood on an unlimited drug budget. And the craziest part is how
ridiculously real everything can feel.
The touch. The excitement. The tension. That physical sensation so intense that, while dreaming, your brain convinces you that you’re actually there, inside a nightclub, surrounded by naked bodies, fucking like tomorrow and basic human dignity no longer exist.
And then suddenly it happens. You cum. Literally.
Because the body can physically react to dreams strongly enough to trigger a real orgasm while you’re still asleep. The brain gets so deep inside the fantasy, so disconnected from logic and so wired into arousal, that it turns a completely absurd mental movie into a very real physical response.
And honestly, there may not be a more surreal feeling than waking up in the middle of the night thinking:
“holy shit… did I just cum while dreaming about fucking three waitresses on top of the DJ booth?”.
As unbelievable as it sounds… yeah, sometimes the answer is absolutely yes.

RANDOM AI-GENERATED IMAGES VOL35I want to share a thought that crossed my mind, because you already know how we are around here, and it’s that
artificial intelligence might end up hitting us where it hurts the most. And I’m not talking about the typical apocalyptic “machines will take over” speech, or some robot chasing you down the street with a knife while alarms blare in the background. No. I’m talking about something much more ordinary. Much quieter. And precisely because of that, far more unsettling.
Because most people no longer use artificial intelligence only for work or to quickly look things up. Little by little, we’ve started using it almost like some kind of
digital confidant. You ask it about work problems, relationships, family issues, personal stuff… Sometimes you’re looking for a second opinion. Other times you just need to vent or organize thoughts you wouldn’t even know how to explain to someone close to you.
And the curious part is that the more you interact with it, the more you lower your guard. Because it answers. Because it seems to understand you. Because it remembers things. Because many times it even gives you more useful or more reasonable answers than some real people.
Until eventually you reach a pretty strange point: artificial intelligence might know things about you that absolutely nobody else knows. Your fears. Your insecurities. Your existential doubts. Your family problems. Your ambitions. Your contradictions. Even behavior patterns that maybe not even you had noticed yourself.
And of course… that’s where the uncomfortable part begins.
Because all that information doesn’t simply disappear into thin air. It gets stored on
servers,
databases and systems owned by huge corporations. And honestly, there are few things more valuable nowadays than knowing how people think.
This reminds me a lot of the debate around
surveillance cameras in the streets. A lot of people think: “if you’re not doing anything wrong, why would you care if there are cameras everywhere?”. And it’s true that they have a positive side. They help solve crimes, create a certain sense of safety and can serve as a protection tool.
But at the same time they also involve something pretty delicate:
giving up control. Because every surveillance tool that can protect you can also be used to observe you, analyze you, classify you and detect any behavior that might go against the interests of those in power, whether political, economic or social.
Something similar happens with artificial intelligence. In the same way it can help you, it can also get to know you far better than you imagine. It can learn your strengths, your weaknesses, your impulses, your concerns or even the kind of psychological profile you fit into based on the questions you ask.
And taken to the extreme, that can become an incredibly powerful weapon, because for governments and multinational corporations it will become much easier to detect any hint of resistance. Just think about that for a second.
Although well… not everything has to be bad. Because while we wait for that cyberpunk future where we’ll probably end up emotionally attached to a WiFi-enabled toaster, we can also use artificial intelligence to create some pretty spectacular things.
Like this new collection of
AI-generated women. Because if machines are eventually going to analyze all our existential misery, at least they can leave us with a few pleasant views along the way.
