It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of light, it was the season of darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair.

I had a dream that I was in a military base, going down into a basement bunker that one of the generals had used for years. During the war, about 20–30 years ago, he had lost his mind. There had been a rumor that a nuclear bomb was going to drop and at some point he recorded a message.
In the recording, he was saying things like: “we’re all going to die… everyone’s dead… I hate this… I hate being a soldier… fuck defending my country…”
For years, no one ever heard the message. Except me and my friend. Later, he took us down into the bunker and showed us the recording. He was terrified that anyone else in the base might find out about it.
The message had been playing on an endless loop all those years.
I had a dream that I moved to Munich. I was living with three other people and my room was actually the living room. It had couches and a dining table. They put a single bed in one corner and rented it to me. There was no wardrobe but I paid the most rent because it was the biggest room in the house. My rent was 1000 euros.
This dream happened because I started listening to too much techno.
