If reality is a dream, then how come I wake up in the same room with the same things?

Which question ??. 

Generally speaking tho I can be OK with not knowing the answer to any question. What do we really know?  If we are not OK with not knowing we gonna suffer a lot! 

Yup ^^

How do you even know language is grounded? How do you know even knowing is possible? Knowing is just a word. Words restrict human beings perspective. It is not scary to not know, it is impossible to know, there is no knowing and no you. So called you is complaining about so called not knowing.

The future already happend in a sense but that does not equal it doesn't exist at all. 

Future exists as a different reality, I didn't say it doesn't exist at all. Theoretically, time and space are the same thing.

I believe we already touched on the distinction between thoughts and what these thoughts are a representation of.  Reality is not just made out of thoughts! . These thoughts are here for a reason. The mind is just putting labels on the stuff it finds in the world which are in themselves not thoughts. 

I don't think it is made of thoughts either. There are building blocks of reality which ultimately lead to consciousness or self awareness. Thoughts are just a result of a complex network of information happening in the 'background' - the information is not bounded by spacetime.

If reality were a dream, wouldn't it all wipe out like a clean slate? 

No.

@assx95 The way you create what counts as dream’ and what counts as ‘real’ is so dreamy.

The dream state is used as an analogy. You've interpreted it as an equivalence. It's similar to a dream in the way that it's made out of mind, not matter. However, you could infact argue that the reset mechanism is also analogous, only across different lifetimes (if you believe in reincarnation).

frame by frame

like old Disney animated movies. each entire frame is new. not a static / separate world in which YOU are born into (not like a marble in a container)... but like a drop in the middle of the ocean, all ONE

We can only tell you fan theories. They're fun to collect but only mean something if give them power, and still they only mean something to you; like passionately discussing your favourite series, book or movie with a peer who enjoys similar and different  aspects of the same entertainment.
