I had this dream at around 5AM on Dec 4th.
I was in a court room, a long queue waiting behind me, a foid psychiatrist/therapist sitting in front of me. I would've her, but my dreaming brain had other plans. An electronic book was displayed on a large screen facing me. I knew in a matter-of-fact way it was the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual for Mental Disorders, Sixth Edition. I saw they had dilated the criteria for autism (ASD) for the sake of "greater inclusiveness". It had "lowered productivity in the workplace" as a subtype of delusional disorder. It also had crude drawings instead of words in some definitions. Finally it stopped at the entry which said "misogynistic personality disorder".
The psychiatrist claimed, "Guilty!" But I saw further down the text started to degrade and nonsense words start to appear, until it became the sort of muddled garbage you see in AI-generated images. I protested, but I was dragged away by a machine, and the last thing I heard was she claiming "Guilty!" for the dude up next.
The decay... of my mind and of the world it inhabits
