Talking and talking

beccaelizabethA recurring theme of my dreams is trying to explain a thing to people while they talk over me and otherwise refuse to listen
often in ways that will lead to violence or other destruction
and I am just. So Done. I mean, completely, I'm not going back to sleep right now because I'll have that fucking dream again, done.
My power fantasy stories are where I get to make a speech and people actually listen without interrupting and then, wonder of wonders, agree with me and Dont Do The Thing.
Like the dreams involving winning big sword fights are in no way as satisfying as this. Someone somewhere fucking listening.
So that's why I'm not sleeping right now. Not strictly speaking nightmares. Just so fucking frustrated that the world continues being world like whether or not I speak.
I consume too much one way media. The people on the tv never listen. I need to do something interactive instead.
... hi internet, I'm sure y'all will appreciate the frustrated lectures.
This rant brought to you by a dream set after second season Buffy where some perfectly average people hunted and vigilante killed a homeless guy for killing her and weren't even sorry when she turned up and had not in fact been dead.
I am sick of vigilantes right now. No checks and balances just stacks up the worst in people. We need to slow down and listen.
But it could be from dreams on far too many nights.
Gah.
