   Most of what I dreamed about last night involved a house in disrepair.  There   
   was at the very start of it a girl (between 15 & 25, perhaps?) who *appeared*   
   to be riding upon the backside of a large dog.  As the dreamer maintained   
   visual contact (HOW was    
   this girl riding upon a dog??) it became apparent that it was only a deceptive   
   image, that she was NOT, in fact, riding upon the back of the beast, but   
   merely APPEARED to be riding upon it.  (Clarity 7 to 8.)   
      
   I have a STRONG hunch this involves a gal I just encountered in a message   
   board online, who left a link to academia.edu, which appears to be concerned   
   with appearances (such as having a female dressed in a Muslim hijab on its   
   front page— ARABS tend to    
   be (historically!) intellectual— Muslims, on the other hand, are   
   ideologically predisposed towards being argumentative with non-Muslims   
   (compare the number of Jewish Nobel Prize winners to that of Muslim   
   recipients. ~20%+ to Jewish recipients, X>210.   
      
   From Wikipedia:   
   As of 2021, thirteen Nobel Prize laureates have been Muslims, more than half   
   in the 21st century. Seven of the thirteen laureates have been awarded the   
   Nobel Peace Prize, while three have been for the sciences. The recipient of   
   the 1979 Nobel Prize in    
   Physics, Abdus Salam, was a member of the Ahmadi community of Pakistan. Aziz   
   Sancar is the second Turkish Nobel laureate and was awarded the Nobel prize in   
   Chemistry in the field of molecular biology in 2015.   
      
   (CLEARLY a limited number by comparison! 13÷210 = 0.06190, while 210÷13 =   
   16.153846, both sets of fractions being rounded.  After all, the numbers are   
   subject to change every year anyways....) (incidentally, this shows that the   
   Muslim recipients barely    
   amount to 6% of the Jewish recipients, while the Jewish outnumber the Muslim   
   by *over* 16X!)   
      
   So the idea of Muslims on an academia site is possibly A) an attempt at virtue   
   signalling by the site, B) a random pick (or possibly an accident) or C) an   
   overt attempt at "taqiyya" (which is "halal" (permitted) deception.)  And   
   remember, ANY ideology    
   that requires deception in order to spread reflects nothing more than the   
   spreading of deception.  Given the association with Islam and taqiyya, the   
   statistical chances are FAR greater for possibility C.   
      
   At any rate, the gal who led me *to* academia.edu is NOT a Muslim, but appears   
   IRL to be of the Judeo-Christian alignment, which probably explains why she   
   only *appeared* to be riding upon a dog.   
      
   This view led to the dreamer being in a kind of home-like structure that was /   
   is in need of repair:  the first sign was water (rain?) accumulating in a   
   puddle (or puddles) upon the floor.  Upon looking for the source of the water,   
   the dreamer noted what    
   appeared to be a sizable, almost reddish, viscous (thickish) fluid coming down   
   the wall near a window, as if there may have been a leak in the casing,   
   resulting in a reddish mold accumulation.   
      
   The dreamer used a ShopVac (wet-dry vac with around a 5 gallon capacity) that   
   was practically identical to the one I've been using for decades (except for   
   possibly the missing castor wheel) and began to vacuum up one of the puddles.    
   For whatever reason,    
   while the shop vac started out well, it quickly lost suction, as if the   
   5-gallon capacity had already been filled (IRL, there's a caged, floating   
   ball, about the size of a small grapefruit / large orange, that rises as the   
   water level gets near the top,    
   and closes off air access to the fan that powers the suction.)   
      
   The next thing the dreamer looked at appeared to be a specific bedroom with a   
   closet, only the closet appeared to be badly designed / partially remodeled,   
   with some drywall partly overlapping / obscuring a kind of trough at the   
   bottom (that was recessed    
   into / below the floor level) which contained a toilet.  The dreamer somehow   
   activated a flush cycle which drew the dreamer's attention to the location of   
   the bowl (that was obscured within the pit, partially covered by the drywall.)   
      
   In short, the house was a mess.   
      
   Then the dreamer encountered someone very similar to my own, late sister,   
   Cynthia, appearing in around her 20s, and something was said then the dream   
   ended.  This time, clarity 7-8+.   
      
   I also suspect this was largely linked with academia.edu, as registering for   
   the site went all KINDS of sideways, falling into a recursive authentication   
   loop, where the site kept trying to verify that "I am not a robot."  I found   
   an appropriate link and    
   sent in a support request detailing the nature of the trouble, and then   
   proceeded to start journaling this post.
