It's commonly used as a plot device in stories, and in my experience people will tell you about it as a way to "wake up" in the dream if you complain about nightmares and people I've spoken to IRL about it take it as accepted truth

I'd never heard of anyone else this happed to before! Less consequences for me but there was a ~4 year period of my life where at least once a week I'd have a dream wherei just got up and went through a normal day from 8:00 to like 11:00 or as late as like 16:00 sometimes. For example in the dream I would wake up, go to the gym, hang out with my friends as normal and then I would wake up and have to do the whole day again, but sometimes I thought the dream had been real and would brace myself to deal with leftover arguments or jobs from the dream

The only tell I ever noticed was that people were way meaner in the dream

Tbh I think you are overestimating the disruption, lots people do already buy washing powder in cardboard boxes(it's also a better product BC you buy it in bigger volumes and you can measure out the exact right amount for your machine and water hardness), picking your fruit from a loose box in the supermarket and putting into your shopping cart in a paper bag or a bag you bring yourself is also super normal, why would you have to make your own yougert? Why would you need to go to a creamry for cream rather than use the supermarket glass bottle return scheme used for milk? I feel like I should note that there a lot of food-safe resins and waxes that can liquid-proof containers that aren't actualy prohibitively expensive but a bit more expensive and currently less widely produced than plastics. But considering what we're doing to the planet that sacrifice is negligable

Yeah the pre-portioned and plated ready meals you buy from the fridge section would probably stop being thing, but there also food-bar things that serve a very similar product

Obviously life would change a bit and it wouldn't be painless but I really think people overestimate it and something absolutely has to change

Damnit!! I knew I'd forgotten something, told myself it was a good enough explanation.

Not claiming this makes sense, but(in traditional Christian belif) Jesus is not a distinct entity from God.

God is one being made up of: the father(the being you are refering to as Christian god in your comment),

the son(jesus, who is gods humansona but the father does not stop existing when Jesus mode is active, and Jesus has always exsisted i.e.he wasn't created when he was born, and will always exist)

and the holy spirit (god's spiritual power or force e.g in an exorcism it's the holy spirit that actually casts the deamon out ). these are all 'aspects' of a single being, to reference St.Patrick its like how a shamrock has 3 leaves but they make up one plant

Fat chance is a sarcastic phrase, so they don't actually have the same literal meaning
