No such thing. Ask away!

!nostupidquestions is a community dedicated to being helpful and answering each others' questions on various topics.

The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:

Rules (interactive)


Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.

All posts must be legitimate questions, and all post titles must include a question. Questions that are joke or trolling questions, memes, song lyrics as title, etc. are not allowed here. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.



Rule 2- Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.

Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.



Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.

Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.



Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.

That's it.



Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.

Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.



Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.

Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.

On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.

If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.



Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.

If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.

Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.



Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.



Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.

Let everyone have their own content.



Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

Two.

  1. I dreamt of a weird building that was a glass building. It was sort of like a barn and some parts were on rollers to like.. Let the building open up? Just an odd dream. Nothing scary or exciting, but the building was neat. Within the next few days, I stumbled across a random video on YouTube (pre 2008) and there was the exact same glass building house barn. I watched it a little and they did a walk through, everything was exactly my dream. I fucking transcended physically and went to go do something else. It was just too weird.

  2. I was like 9 or so and was going to bed. My bed was against the front end of the trailer home by the window. Making this short, a fucking human hand slowly rose up from below the window. I thought it was outside. I stared at it for a bit. It did not move. It didn't do anything just like... Stayed there. A hand (with arm) like someone was reaching up from below. After a bit of staring and nothing happening, I wanted to see if it was real or if I was hallucinating. I quickly poked at it. I FELT IT. and watched it get pushed back from my poke before returning to the same position. I ran the hell out of my room and slept in the living room. At the time I was a lone foster child living with a single older woman who was extremely serious and treated me like a burden. No way she was messing with me and she even got mad that I slept in the living room. No windows were open and all perimeter doors locked. That haunted me for a while. I'm not a supernatural believer but also cannot manage to draw an explanation other than the fact that I was a young child going through a significantly stressful situation with nobody around me that I knew.

I actually tried looking for it like a year later but couldn't find it. When it showed up originally it was just on my feed which was also super out of place. I've given attempts here and there but no luck, probably since more than a billion videos have been uploaded from there to here. I'll give it another quick search. If you don't see the link, I haven't found it.

E: OK so this is not THE video, but I'm pretty sure that this is the house. I remember it being a like.. House with wheels where the roof moves, there were two levels. And lots of glass. Pretty sure this is the house, but again, the exact video would have been legitimately over 15 years old.

E2: forgot the link

Bump for original comment. Check reply.

The human mind is a weird thing. That second one sounds like a very convincing hallucination to me, even feeling the hand. It could be you were in between that state of awake and asleep, it definitely sounds like the kind of thing someone who has had sleep paralysis experiences.

As a result of narcolepsy, I regularly dream while half awake (think while you're falling asleep or waking up). It can sometimes be hard to remember whether something happened in a dream or in real life when in that state.
