yool_ooloo@lemmy.worldto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What was the scariest nightmare you remember having?English4·1 month agoDo you have dream paralysis? That’s what I think I have.
Whatever the dream is, and there are a variety of situations, but I’m ‘stuck’. I’m dreaming but I can’t move.
I strain to get free and move but can’t break free.
At the end of the dream I wake up, usually wrapped up in bedsheets and physically aching from trying to unbind myself.
As an example, I had a dream where I was on a reality TV show. The point was to get from point A to point B. I was really struggling to crawl to point B. Then I saw my body on the floor being attended to by an EMT. Seeing my body with the EMT triggered something and I woke up as I was physically stepping out of the bed in real life.

Mostly into the DroneZone as ambient while at home or at work. Listening with noise-reducing headphones makes it even better.

You could turn it off, if you’re into that and sometimes pain let’s you know there might be a problem, but the endless agony people go through would end.

I love and donate to SomaFM.
I have been hooked on the ‘DroneZone’, but there are lots of other channels on SomaFM that I should explore.
There is very minimal interruption (hourly? and quietly) asking for donations.
yool_ooloo@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What was your earliest experiences with the Internet like? English2·5 months agoAOL - ISP. Not sure order of operations here… I was also on Mozilla/Netscape (1991/92-?)
Bulletin Board Channels: There was at least one gay one in San Diego (ca. 1992-1995). We would chat and post online, then once a month, meet at a gay bar with name tags with our handles.
IRC - fun chat site (at least into 1997 for me)
LISTSERV - this was less useful for me. signing up for ‘reading lists’ or ‘subscriptions’ to ‘butterflies’ ‘sourdough’, etc. (I honestly do not recall the groups I signed on to) when no one really seemed to be there (1992-94?) though I didn’t move with the hip crowd

yool_ooloo@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What is a U.S. health insurance's "concierge program"?English10·6 months agoI thought a ‘concierge program’ was similar to OneMedical. You pay an annual fee, have a PCP, but the PCP doesn’t typically do much besides refer you to specialists, give advice, or prescribe meds.
