Malcolm X Peacefully Protesting?

*Jibber Jabber Alert*

I am not sure if this is one dream or two dreams so I will type them as separate dreams, the first part of the dream was probably inspired by me contacting T-Mobile late last night by web chat to ask them if T-Mobile is going to ever release the Lumia Denim update (I got no answer, but supposedly they will contact someone about contacting Nokia about the update) that came out back in November 2014 for their Nokia Lumia 635 phones (and other phones) running Windows Phone 8.1, because every other carrier except T-Mobile has released this update according to Microsoft’s own page which shows every carrier with the update except for T-Mobile who is still stuck on the Lumia Cyan update:

http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/mobile/support/product/lumia635/softwareupdate/

T-Mobile has done a terrible job when it comes to phones running the Windows Phone operating system, they seem to be trying to help destroy it or something like that by doing things like: not releasing updates, not keeping them in stock, not advertising them, not selling the newer models (they even stopped selling the Nokia Lumia 640 shortly after it came out even though it was a good phone for the price and it was doing good in ratings), actively trying to get customers to not buy phones running the Windows Phone operating system (this happened to my family and I, and to many other people visiting their stores; just look around online and you will see that other people have had this problem as well), and et cetera.

It almost seems like a conspiracy to destroy the Windows Phone operating system, maybe they are getting paid by some rivals of the Windows Phone operating system to behave this way to help decrease competition(?) and/or there is a bad grudge between some of the leadership of T-Mobile and Nokia/Microsoft and/or they just do not think that the Windows Phone operating system is worth supporting and/or something like that, and this is unnecessary because the Windows Phone operating system was already doing poorly against its competition; and so there is no need for companies like T-Mobile to make it worse by behaving this way, and hurting their own users and the competition between mobile phone operating systems.

Many other people and I are still left without answers, without updates, and without access to the newer phones with the Windows Phone operating system; and without the Lumia Denim update we will not be able to update to Windows 10 Mobile for our phones when it is released, and we are currently left without some of the improvements that came with the Lumia Denim update a year ago so we are left with less functional phones because of T-Mobile’s behavior.

I actually wanted to go with a phone with Google’s Android operating system and I still want to (because most apps are made for it and some of the apps that I want are not available on Windows Phone, it is more popular, and it probably is better overall) but most of the phones that I had to choose from in the budget price range had outdated versions of Android and will not get updates to the newer versions, they were lower quality, they had worse hardware, they had worse reviews, and they were not as durable or reliable as what Nokia/Microsoft was offering in that price range with their phones with the Windows Phone operating system so a Nokia/Microsoft phone with the Windows Phone operating system were our best option for the price; and so I am not a Windows Phone/Nokia/Microsoft fan and I am just someone who picked what was best overall for my family and I for the budget price range (under $100), and I think that this behavior from T-Mobile is wrong and I at least want T-Mobile to release the Lumia Denim update and then the Windows 10 Mobile update when it is available et cetera.

-End of rant 😀

Dream 1

All that I can remember of this dream is that it probably started during the day inside my parents’ house with me trying to contact T-Mobile again to find out if they are going to ever answer our question about whether they will ever release the Lumia Denim update for our Nokia Lumia 635 phones like every other carrier has, I can not remember what happened, but I do remember talking with my parents about the situation; and then I went outside to jog in the yard.

As I was jogging I saw a male police officer with whitish colored skin with short yellowish colored hair wearing glasses who I recognized from either real life and/or a dream, he was walking on the street looking at houses and writing something on a notebook/clipboard/paper and he seemed very focused on this task, and it seemed that he was collecting data like he was updating records for a census or a police database to maybe see which houses were abandoned or not and other information like that (the layout of streets, yards, number of vehicles and types at each house, who lived at each house, et cetera).

At first I thought that the police were looking for someone who used to live in the abandoned mobile home next to The B House but then I quickly realized that I was wrong, I greeted the police officer as I jogged and he greeted me back, but he continued focusing intently on his work without asking me anything or saying anything else to my surprise; and I thought that was strange, and I wondered what he was doing.

I probably told my parents about this when I finished jogging, but that is all that I can remember of this dream.

Dream 2

All that I can remember of this dream is that it took place during the day and I was still at my parents’ house, the dream involved a man who reminded me of Malcolm X in how he looked and dressed and acted or maybe it was Malcolm X, and oddly part of the dream world seemed to be in the time period from when Malcolm X was still alive based on what people were wearing and their hairstyles and the automobile designs in the dream.

He was trying to get the city/local government to allow them to do something/makes some changes/et cetera that I can not remember but the city/local government refused, and so he and some other people who mostly had brownish colored skin started peacefully protesting (marching, singing, et cetera); and at some point the city allowed them to do one of the things that they had requested after their protesting put enough pressure on the city and the city hoped that this would make them stop protesting, and they started doing whatever it was outside in the field by my parents’ yard.

While doing this they also continued their peaceful protesting trying to get the city to allow them to do whatever else was on their list of things that they were protesting about, I would watch from the window inside my parents house, and groups of people with whitish colored skin with racist beliefs would drive in old style cars from that time period while wearing old style clothing with old style hair styles from that time period around the protesters angrily yelling and spitting and threatening et cetera them.

The racist groups of people became more aggressive as the protesters refused to stop their peaceful protest and work, and it started to seem like the racist groups of people would become violent soon and attack the protesters, and the city/police were not trying to do anything about it because they wanted the protesters to stop protesting and working on whatever it is that they were working on too; but woke up.

Helping A Lost Girl In Walmart

Dream 1

All that I can remember of this dream is that it took place during the day in a fictional version of the city of D during the day, I remember being inside Walmart or a Walmart-like store with maybe my brother GC, and at some point I found a girl who seemed to be lost; and so I walked around the store with the girl trying to find her parent’s, and at some point she pointed outside so I went outside with her to see if her parent’s were outside.

The girl was too young to talk really I guess so she would just point her finger to communicate, I remember carrying her around outside as she would point in a certain direction, and eventually I was walking around various neighborhoods holding her while trying to figure out which house belonged to her parent’s.

I remember walking down streets, sidewalks, through yards, and by swimming pools in neighborhoods that reminded me of fictional versions of the neighborhoods by W Park and BB Grocery Store; but then I started to think that the girl did not know where her parent’s were or lived, and that she was just pointing in the same direction over and over.

I decided that I would keep searching a bit longer and then return to the store to talk to the employees about finding her parent’s, which I should have done earlier, but I woke up.

Dream 2

All that I can remember of this dream is that it took place during the day in a fictional version of the city of D, I am not even sure if I was in the dream or not, but I remember the dream involving a small tribe of people with light brownish colored skin with dark-colored hair who lived in the city; and there was a woman in the tribe being very vocal about various issues in the city, and some high level people in the local government were afraid because she was inspiring people and she had the potential to get people to try to change things for the better.

One day after the woman, her son, and some other people from their tribe were finished having a meeting the woman was approached by several men who told her that official from the city wanted to meet with her or something like that; and they gave her a ride, they were really assassins hired by the local government, and they murdered her.

The woman’s son started to worry when she never returned and so him and some of the other tribe members started trying to figure out what happened to her, I am not sure if they ever found her body or not, but I imagine the local government covered it up; but maybe a few people were still suspicious and doing their own investigation, but that is all that I can remember of this dream.

Meeting Presidential Candidate Jill Stein And My Mom Is Running For Political Office?

I barely remember part of one dream from last night, which started in a fictional building I think, and I was walking around exploring the building.

I forgot the beginning of the dream and so I do not remember why I was at the building, who I met earlier in the dream, or what I did earlier in the dream; so I only remember walking around at this point, but I do remember that I went outside at least once to a field that reminded me of the playground at the KR Elementary school but I can not remember what happened.

I think that the building was like an office complex that was somewhat mall-like, and a few different small events/gatherings were happening in different parts of the building as I walked around; and at some point near a stairway or escalator & near a larger event where a lot of chairs were with people sitting in them, I saw an area not far from there with a few people sitting down in chairs and maybe two people behind a table or standing up.

As I walked over there I noticed the Green Party’s Presidential Candidate Jill Stein and probably her running mate, only about five people were with them at their gathering, and so it was not popular at all; and I stopped to see what they were doing, and they were campaigning/there to listen to voters/there to talk about ideas/et cetera.

I was surprised to see them but I was glad to see some non-corporate candidates finally, and so I went to listen to what they were saying; and I talked with them a bit.

I can not remember the details of what happened, I just remember saying goodbye to them at some point, and I left wondering if there was anything that could be done to help give presidential candidates like her more public awareness; and I felt that they should start with local politics first, instead of running for president, so start at the city level then move to the parish level then move to the state level and then move to the national level.

I felt that they should test/try their ideas at the local level first to see how well they work and to give them time to improve them/show them to the public before trying them on a larger scale, and I felt that them running for president in their current state was mostly pointless since they had almost no support to ever win under current conditions & that their time could be spent better working at the local level/state level.

At some point I drove to D to a fictional building near the shopping center where the DT store is, it was another office/city-like complex, and inside there were some city/school board/local political meetings going on.

I met my family and my mom announced that she was running for political office I think, to my surprise, but I am not sure what political office; and so we held a small campaign gathering in one of the rooms, but only a few people came, like at the Jill Stein campaign gathering.

My mom and dad said that the next day would be the last day of campaigning since voting or early voting would start tomorrow (which is today), I wondered how & why would my mom enter the race so late, and I wondered if she was running for president since tomorrow (today) is the start of early voting in real life; and I hoped that she was not running for president, because I would probably not vote for her since I was planning on voting for Jill Stein. 😀

Either way, neither of them would win but that did not matter that much to me, in real life 99% of the people who I vote for lose; and so I am used to it. 😀

Then I woke up,
