I hate to break it to you, but it's been canon for a while now that Pink Diamond was shattered.

Some people claim that if they spend the night in a house that is claimed to be haunted by spirits, they experience the memories of the deceased. This is subjective, however. Scientifically, the explaination may be the result of the mind processing new information they learned about recently or with emphasis.

For instance, you may have a report due tomorrow on the biography of famous African-American botanist George Washington Carver, who studied the botany of peanuts. Contrary to what people believe, Professor Carver did not invent peanut butter, but his study on the beloved plant that makes the delicious treat, but he did write a document titled "How to Grow the Peanut and 105 Ways of Preparing it for Human Consumption" in 1916.

Regardless, you may have a dream tonight where in it there is an unlabeled jar of peanut buttter with either a blue or red lid on it. (If you are old enough to see the Black Mirror episode "Crocodile", where an insurance agent uses a device to reconstruct the scene of an accident with the memory of others, there is a scene where one of the witnesses describes seeing someone with a green raincoat where it appears green on the device reconstructing the memory of the accident when she correct him by saying the raincoat was yellow and the coat changes color from green to yellow on the device's monitor.  This scene is a good demonstration of how the mind keeps and stores information and how sometimes it can be subjective.)

Then there are the people who are like "STOP TALKING ABOUT PEANUTS! I have an allergy. You are triggering it." Again, psychology proves that is not how histamines work. (Histamines are the the chemical hormones that activate when a person's body is exposed to something they are allergic to.)  So for an actual peanut allergy to occur, one would know what the symptomes are (like anaphylaxis) or have a supply of Epipens in the case you stop breathing. Besides, nobody who has peanut allergies has ever died from dreaming about peanuts, unless they had Freddy Kruger kill you buy pouring a tube of it down your throat.

That's another example of how some people claim they had the same dream with the same murderous dream villian except when they talk about it like a the ear worm of a song. (Which is yet another example of that!)

The world of dreams is still one of mystery even as neuroscientists spoil the whole thing claming it to be the chemicals inside our heads playing tricks on us as part of the body's natural ability to use sleep to flush out the junk in our bodies. But it doesn't mean we can't have fun imagining it or having strage dreams like Professor Carver as Freddy Kruger stabbing you with epipens that shoot peanut butter into your heart or creepy girls playing with jump rope and singing about it.

Sweet Dream. :3  "
