We'll talk about some of the theories. But as we continue to build out this idea, though, some people see them all as a much more futuristic aesthetic. And it's so expansive that they get this sense that it's its own city, that it might go on forever forever.

some people see that there are large features like an airport attached some people think that this whole mall is in the middle of a forest and some people experience it as like a coastal town so they're in the mall and then suddenly the mall just opens up to a wall and you're at the beach and there's an ocean and a cliff face and you're seeing cruise ships in the distance

and it's developed so much and there's so much overlap between all these experiences that redditors have started to create a map of their dreamscapes they're like okay you have the mountains but my mountains have ice on them or you're seeing valleys but my valleys are endless and pitless right right and so there was actually and this is where i have another image for you to check out the reddit user anonymous mute kittens

kind of collated all of the images from the subreddit and pasted them onto kind of a map where you have in the west some frosty mountains with an icy town on the other side so expansive we write novels i know But then you have an alcove, like a bay with an ocean. You have what looks like either a valley or like a bottomless pit over to the east.

And then they paste on that map, okay, here's this user, here's that user, here's their screenshot, their screenshot. I don't know. It's a luxury seaside home. Exactly. But it starts to like show all of the, yes, traditional malls. But in addition to that, some people are seeing things that lean a little bit more hotel or more water park or more amusement rides.

And again, we'll talk about this in the theories, but it starts to have the same energy of the Internet's back rooms. where there are endless water slides that go off into oblivion. You have hallways that are just liminal spaces that, you know, just feel haunted.

Absolutely. I mean, that is totally valid. It might start in an authentic place. You have other people coming into roleplay, RP as they say online, or build out this world because it self-feeds. You're totally right. Because once you are validated in the sense that other people are seeing what you're seeing, you might be more inclined to dream it because you're thinking about it.

And you're part of a community. You're totally right. And I can't wait to kind of once we get through some of the more descriptions and experiences to kind of explore those theories that psychologically might help answer why this phenomena happens, how people have these shared experiences. Because, again, it starts to move from metaphysical into a, oh, we can break this down.
