8 Misconceptions About Dreams

From the dangers of a late-night cheese binge to that recurring nightmare you have about taking the SATs in your underwear, we’re getting to the bottom of these eight misconceptions about dreams, adapted from an episode of Misconceptions on YouTube.
1. Misconception: Eating cheese before bed can give you nightmares.
At one point in Charles Dickens's
A Christmas Carol, Ebenezer Scrooge dismisses a ghostly encounter as being just as likely from the crumb of cheese he had before bed. It sounds a bit odd, but cheese has historically gotten a bad rap for its ability to conjure nightmares. It's unlikely that a little cheddar is the root of your nighttime terrors, though.

QAnon followers believe Trump will be inaugurated as president this month


QAnon followers believe Trump will be inaugurated as president this month
Followers of the right wing
QAnon conspiracy theory are looking forward to a couple big dates in March 2021: March 4 and 20, specifically.
QAnon believers say any day in March the former President Donald Trump will be inaugurated as President once again.
This is not true. Donald Trump will not become President of the United States this month, just weeks after Joe Biden was inaugurated. 
These facts do not matter to QAnon conspiracy theorists, though. 
"Some QAnon believers are keeping a broader timeline in mind, including the entire month of March," says Atlantic Council's Digital Forensic Research Lab resident fellow Jared Holt, who tracks right wing extremism. "Many of the justifications for those dates stem from worn-out theories that can be traced back to the sovereign citizen movement." (The sovereign citizen movement is an extremist right wing anti-government idea that believes they are not subject to most U.S. laws.)

QAnon Followers Jump on U.S. Marshals Tweet About March 4 Inauguration


QAnon Followers Jump on U.S. Marshals Tweet About March 4 Inauguration
On 2/24/21 at 6:54 AM EST
The U.S. Marshals have been criticized for a tweet mentioning Abraham Lincoln's inauguration on March 4, 1861, as followers of the radical QAnon movement push baseless claims that Donald Trump will be reinstated as president on that date next week.
The federal agency has been accused of failing to realize the significance of mentioning March 4 and apparently legitimizing the conspiracy theorists' predictions.
"On February 23, 1861, President-Elect Abraham Lincoln quietly slipped into Washington, D.C. to prepare for his inauguration on March 4," the U.S. Marshal's account tweeted on Tuesday. "Accompanying him was U.S. Marshal Ward Hill Lamon (D/DC), a friend and former law partner."

Because no one suspected that the beguiling woman mingling in Alabama social circles was a private eye hunting a master embezzler.
The secessionists flirting and gossiping with the lovely "Mrs. Cherry" at Baltimore galas didn't worry about tipping off the charming Southern belle to their assassination plot.
And while a city bristling with weapons, rumors, assassins, spies and officers anxiously waited for the heavily guarded President-elect Abraham Lincoln to pass through Baltimore on the way to his 1861 inauguration - and possibly straight into a trap - they ignored the young widow accompanying her unusually tall, invalid brother in a sleeping berth headed to Washington.
