I put a Flux Capacitor for sale on Craigslist

Pre-order my comedy special here: veitch.me/a-sh...
I’ve been contacted by Future You. Future You is, in all honesty, a better version of yourself (deep down, you know this would happen) and Future You told me it was VITAL that you support my comedy special on Kickstarter. Very little time left to do so. Even less now.
www.kickstarte...
I had a dream last night where I met the lead singer of Muse and he told me that we’d already met actually at a wedding that, I’m 99% certain, was part of another dream I had months ago.
Is the lead singer of Muse dream hopping? Was he there? Or was the wedding dream part of the dream last night and I just feel like it was months ago. People who write down their dreams; what’s the deal? Which is it? Either way, there’s something fishy about the lead singer of Muse.
Meanwhile, re Kickstarter, our time is running out.
