I was sitting on my bed in the red bedroom at Mom and Dad's house (now Dad's office, but in my dream it was as it was when it was my bedroom, as it often is in my dreams). Someone (who looked like Josie from Annihilation) was standing next to me, offering to let me use their time machine. I would be able go anywhere, any time. For some reason we went back to 1800 to observe some slavery. I was like yeah this sucks let's get out of here (I think I was afraid that I would personally get into trouble if we stuck around), and traveled to a more 'recent' time.

What year was it when I left? 2019? Maybe I'd go back to 10 years before that, to 2009, and 'give myself an extra 10 years!', whatever that would mean. Somehow I ended up with two Kia Souls, maybe the same car, parked in a parking ramp somewhere.

Clearly there was some tie-in with that time tunnel dream, in which I was going back in time through a tunnel and stopped at 1800.

I told ChatGPT about this time-travelling dream I had, where the 'current year' was 2019, and I ended up going to 2009 (after a detour through 1800, which "sucked") and then there was two of my car. It was like "what fucked you up in 2019" (paraphrased) and I was like "omg that was when I left EarthIT and started living in two different places; no wonder I picked 2019 as the current year; that was the last time life made any dang sense."

The time tunnel dream referenced EarthIT directly. This one only hinted at it with that 2019 business.

Also, how the fuck is it already halfway through November? The Halloween Jack-o-lantern's only been sitting on the step for like 3 days.
