Ontogenesis recapitulates phylogeny or something (in a dream)
During another dream involving genealogy, adoption, and swimsuits, I have something important to tell a friend. I start to write her a letter by hand, but then I remember that it will take several days for this letter to reach her. Should I fax it instead, now that I already have paper in front of me? Instead, I start writing an email by filling out the various fields by hand. But that’s too stupid for me and I write a normal email on the computer instead. It would have been even easier when I was awake because I can reach my friend on Facebook Messenger. But the dream consciousness always needs twenty years longer to get used to new technology.
