In this dream I was talking to a woman. And she was acting negatively because of my phone. Because it is not a new phone. And it is an Android phone. And I was trying to explain to her that I have a new phone sitting in a drawer that Google had sent to me under NDA (this is true) but that this phone is better because it has GrapheneOS.
I was trying to show various features, use logical positions, philosophical ideals about privacy and security, my 3 day battery life, how the new phone had almost 2x apps in similar config and how all those apps were spying, the works... and being met with only a fluoride stare, illogical combative statements, and an inability to comprehend.
It was daunting and boring. I hope I never have such dreams again. This was caused by reading /g on my phone before nodding off and installing a GrapheneOS update overnight. What a shit waste of dreaming. I am thankful for the client that had called to wake me up and rescue me from that tedium.
If you see the GrapheneOS phone as an extension of himself, okay.
But the fact that he IS selling it in the dream tells me it's not a confidence issue.
His growing frustration in the dream is not about his lack of confidence, it's about the lack of meaningful connection and understanding others are able to make, or their inability, rather.
It's frustration at feeling like you are alone even when you have all the information available and can explain it in great detail, and yet you are still alone because they cannot comprehend or make a meaningful connection.
