I dreamed I was in a convenience store, and in the freezer with the ice cream was a bizarre low‐carbohydrate, artificially sweetened mayonnaise‐based confection, and don’t think I wasn’t curious to try it. I also dreamed I encountered some piece of mass‐produced popular art on sale that depicted both Biblical personages and Golden Age superheroes, and that it supposedly refuted some principle of Christian theology. At different points in the dream, it looked very different than at other points, sometimes being a poster that depicted the entire scene, and other times more of a figurine or cluster of figurines that depicted one character or a detail of the scene. I was jokingly telling someone that a certain predicted forthcoming Christian event, like the Second Coming, had evidently already happened decades ago, because here was the documentation, and Wonder Woman was there to witness it. I was disappointed that the additional paper materials that came with it didn’t identify the various characters as I hoped it would but instead had some instructions on how to draw only a small percentage of the characters (and not even the more obscure ones with which I was unfamiliar), along with puzzles and games. Of note was at least one prominent statement on the paper that it was not under copyright but released into the public domain.
