LUT - A table appears 10ft above your target and falls on it dealing 1d6 bludgeoning.
"LOOK! UP! TABLE!"
"Gary, they don't have anuses. Seriously man, are you ok?"
Do you think if humans ever achieve interstellar flight and discover a less technologically advanced species that we'll just show them how to use big stick to move big rock and then fly away smug af and high fiving?
My 100% BS conjectures are:
-
to save energy versus committing the dream to long term memory
-
to facilitate childhood/adolescent development, as object permanence is learned you need the external world to be the consistent one. You can't waste energy learning to adapt to the worlds in your dreams in later childhood.
-
as adults dream amnesia can help avoid relived or newly generated trauma incurred as the begin processes your external experience.
Idk, there's lots of possible benefits. In not about to do the research paper deep dive. But the wild part is that dreaming developed and the mechanism for not remembering the dreams also developed and there was a selective pressure for that to be the case.
Don't be so hyperbolic
Info Wars with Dan and Jordan would be a hot summer fever dream come true
The natural selection implications for dream amnesia are wild.
I've only had a couple dreams that were legit traumatizing. How bad could it be to remember 100x more of them!? That's like only one or two truly life altering traumatizing dreams per night!
Just a few bad apples.
Keep reading. It's in the "Possible withdrawal from mathematics" section.
