Alien Club 🍕

Date: 2/10/2018

I read a depressing but beautiful children's book about climate change but with pepperoni. This cotton candy world was being dissolved by pepperoni acid rain. The pepperoni slices were hanging in the sky like clouds, dripping grease onto this cotton candy savanna with cotton candy trees. Then there were aliens. I was watching thus YouTuber, Austin McConnel I think, make a movie about kids fighting aliens. It was underground in a sewer type setting. There was water up to about chest level on the kids. The aliens were all glowy. I was watching the process of adding digital special effects. He was adding a glowy tentacle to a shot of the girl looking scared. Then there's aliens for real! A bunch of people have been kidnapped. It's like that shark meeting in finding nemo. Each alien has a human buddy. I don't know if they mean us harm or not, but I'm very nervous. We go around the circle and introduce ourselves, except in the alien language! Which everyone else apparently knows! It sort of sounds like Portuguese, which is convenient. I'm learning Portuguese irl. I frantically try to figure out the language and plan what to say instead of listening to the others talk. This guy across the circle from me introduces himself and says he makes beats. He gets out his laptop and plays one. It's very loud! he slides the laptop over to me for some reason and I try to pause the music so the next person can talk. But I can't! Every time I hit the pause button it skips to the next track instead. Everyone is mad at me. It's my turn to introduce myself. I stumble halfway through the response I planned and then they interrupt me and move on. I feel real bad.
