I Weirded Out in a Whimsical Wilderness
'Twas the day before Halloween, and I was feeling weirdly whimsical, so I went and wandered around an obscure local spot I had never heard of. The place was a whimsical property called "Fun Farm" that had surreal structures arranged in a row, and the place reminded me of the quaint little town of Spectre, from Tim Burton's "Big Fish " film. 
The evening was setting in, and the serenely surreal place was silent and still, apart from a cluster of swans swiftly escaping my attempt at snapping a few photos of them. A faint flash of lighting and a rumble of thunder enhanced the mood as twilight lingered.
It felt like I was literally waltzing through a weird and whimsical dream, lost in the wilderness of wonder and curiosity.
I hadn't realized this hidden gem was right here all this time, only a simple drive across town! As I wandered around, weirding out in this unique place, drops of rain began to suddenly pelt me in the face. I took shelter in one of the structures as a brief downpour came through that lasted only a few moments.
The rain lingered for a while, but lightened up, so I wandered around the area. I found serenity as I stared at the small lake, taking in the soothing sound of the soft pitter-patter of raindrops in this weirdly wonderful wilderness.
Development To-Do
DSS is still in need of further development. The following is what is forthcoming:
- "New" menu re-work
- DAISY update
- Add feature to consolidate Segment dreams into a downloadable PDF for offline reading
- Develop / launch Oneiric Gallery
- Overall navigation UI/UX improvements
- Bug fixes and other improvements for mobile
Other Potential Developments:
The Author is working on content for new dreams (many are in the pipeline). This may take a while, though, due to mental health reasons.
The Author is very private and secretive (and a predator). He has considered creating a Substack and / or an Instagram, but social media is being avoided at all costs, indefinitely, due to wishing to remain unseen.

I Stared at Swedish Spicy Mustard
The Author recently visited the Swedish American Museum in Chicago. The goal of the trip was to get inspiration and information on Swedish culture and genealogy (mission accomplished).
While side-eyeing the shit out of nearly everything within the gift shop, the Author stared obsessively at a bottle of Swedish-style spicy mustard, and he came to the realization that spiciness is in his nature, and that there is nothing that anyone or anything can do to contain it. It felt like it was just enough, a perfect balance of spiciness and surrealism; a sweet dream reminiscent of Swedish Semla, bearing a striking similarity to the Lagom philosophy of the joys of having just enough.
Staring at spicy Swedish mustard made the Author have a mental moment of clarity and a nostalgic memory from a spiritual visit he had when he visited Sweden in 2005. Ultimately, the decision was made to purchase a bottle of the Swedish spiciness.
The day of the visit was on a full moon, and alignment could be felt. Browsing through the books in the shop, the Author found a copy of "City of My Dreams" by Per Anders Fogelström. This find was unexpected, and it felt like... destiny.
