    I’d rather believe in unconscious interdimensional travel then accept that my memories might be wrong.

      The flip side of this that that you can be lied to without consequence. I’m not saying most of these are real, but pretending like this has never happened is asking for an additional serving of boot.

      My two acceptable hypotheses:

      • We are in a simulation and these are remnants from server migration/discrepancies in the instances.
      • These are dry runs of the man seeing what history they can get away with rewriting and convince us was true.

      No. I cannot create false memories. Nope. I can’t do it. I won’t listen to you. It’s not true! Nonononononononooooooooooooooooooooo! This isn’t my fault! 👉😫👈 lalalalalala

      Motherfuckers… is this why i’ve been remembering shit that other people say never happened? or remembering something people said and then them saying they said something different? wait i recently saw a movie about some guy trying to break out of his reality by flying a rocket to the edge of the universe and has been dimension hoping the entire trip, this is trippy…

      Edit: i can’t find the name of the movie but the plot is as described and he realises he is dimension hoping because his partner is suddenly alive after he killed him or he died in an accident on the ship, can’t remember what happened and at the end he also realises he is in a loop and after he crashes into the edge he chooses the dimension in which he never went into space and escapes the loop, anyone have an idea of what the movie might be called or am i just trippin balls and that movie doesn’t exist in this dimension?

        I mean, if you want the real answer, it’s just that it is incredibly easy to create false memories. Then add in all the social pressure fun that can warp your viewpoint, and you’re off to the races.

        ANy other info? New film? Old? Any notable actors? US film or from elsewhere? I dug around, but nothing I could find in ten minutes fit your description. Am interested in knowing too as I love these types of films.

            Nice find! Rated 3.6/10 on imdb. Is it really that bad? Meh, I’ll watch it anyways.

            Edit: Alternate title is “ISRA 88”. Adrienne Barbeau has a bit part in it. The film is a bit middling, but maybe not 3.6. Maybe a 4.5/10.

            Alternative title is “ISRA 88”. Just watched it. It’s interesting, but a little clunky. Maybe not as bad as the 3.6/10, but I feel it misses the mark. They didn’t make the alternate realities portion of the story as compelling (or real) as they could’ve. It could be a stage play with how low-tech the sets/environment are, but I can overlook that, so nbd. Just didn’t have enough oomph. ;)

            Oh, and Adrienne Barbeau is in it!
