Brain: Open your eyes.

Person sleeping on bed: Permission denied.

Brain: Sudo open your eyes.

Person sleeping on bed: The brain is not in the sudoers file. This incident will be reported.

I regularly have those dreams where I am desperately trying to open my eyes because of some danger or other, but they’re suuuper heavy and it doesn’t work. This is that

Sleep paralysis was part of untreated apnea for me. And it sucks.

I’m not a doctor, but you might consider a sleep study if you can.

I always wonder to whom this gets reported to

Real answer: it used to be common for UNIX daemons to send mail to root or to other users. This wasn’t the same thing as email, because it didn’t hit a network unless you set that up. But it ended up in the same mailboxes.

Sleep paralysis sucks a lot. It’s terrifying. It would happen to me as a teen; I would be stuck in the morning. It has stopped but it’s really unpleasant.

It happened to me once. Maybe not sleep paralysis persay but I woke up before my body did (only for like a minute maybe). It was the most indescribably strange and alien feeling I’ve ever had.

The brain user would absolutely be a sudoer though, since it controls so many vital functions by default

brain has both suid and sgid bit set

The subconscious is a sudoer, the conscious mind is not.

A Sudo joke. Daring today aren’t we?

Can’t help it, after the first frame all I hear is “open your mind, proud like a god, don’t pretend to be blind”
