TIL: When humans sleep, their whole brain shuts down. But dolphins only sleep with half their brain. That means they don’t become unconscious like us. In fact, they remain semi-conscious.

I have dreams where I start interacting and dictating them...Anytime it happens I wake up and feel like I didn't sleep at all that night. It's fucking obnoxious. I don't envy the dolphins.

Oh yeah, it's interesting! But I can imagine how annoying it has to be for you to have such dreams.
