Re pnut sharing: there are a few tweets where they mention that they are sharing a lot of curious details about Earth with other cultures - they even have exhibits with artifacts/duplicates of everyday life of newly introduced worlds on their colonies.
And they mention that they are also sharing many of their interactions on Twitter - so take your chance and entertain the pnuttys on Twitter - your tweet/message may be shared with the galaxy!

Of course with goon shitposts these messages will convince the galaxy that Earth is beyond salvation and ready to be destroyed...

Cmon peanuts, I'll be your exhibit. Give me a good enclosure and i might be able to convince a mate to tag along. I love lounging around all day doing nothing, you wouldnt be keeping me a prisoner.

I'm not convinced by future humans myself, but what do I know? Closed timelike curves and retrocausality are really fascinating subjects.

If the P'nti are real then they might as well be future humans. They are visually similar and appear to have all the neurological equipment for human communication/language. A crab is more alien than them.

Dominique Lestel, philosopher, posted:

It is likely that the contact with extraterrestrials will lead to a very deep existential crisis for humans. Humans could be confronted with their inability to answer questions of enormous importance to them. First, to become aware of such cognitive and epistemic limits, and second, to accept these limits may seriously test humans. Indeed, up to now, every epistemological crisis humans have faced has led them to alter their conception of the world. The next epistemological crisis, a crisis precipitated by contact with extraterrestrials, could be very different. Humans may come to understand that there exists in the universe a set of phenomena that they will never be able to know because they are not clever enough.

To me, this is a good explanation of where we are right now. Despite decades of public/private research, this phenomenon may not be completely knowable to us. We literally don't have the brains for it. We might just be rabbits staring into headlights, frozen in fear and awe.

You're thinking of someone else. He's had an adversarial relationship with most of UFO Twitter for a while now, mostly just for calling out really flagrant bullshit and insisting on things like "evidence" rather than someone saying "no it's totes real trust me".

Interesting that he's not a fan of the Galileo Project then. Hopefully he'll give some insight into why he thinks it's bullshit.

I'm only 20 minutes into that podcast but it's been all about this particular topic to this point and he has yet to offer any specifics, just taking in circles about how the people at the top are full of poo poo and he's bored with the military UAP thing.

They've since moved on but basically he had nothing substantive to say about why Galileo Project and/or its leadership is bad, just that he doesn't like this whole thing. If I had to guess he signed up, wasn't given special access to information, and got bored.

Yeah, the non-specifics were kind of annoying, but reading between the lines it seems like he has beef with Lue if I had to take a guess?

That "If Harvard authored a study on witches, and then brought in the government's top witch hunters as experts" seemed specifically aimed at :tinylue:

Disappointing. I was hoping for good gossip.

The interpersonal beefs and gossip are like half the fun of following this topic when there isn't new actual data to look at (which is almost all of the time.)

One week until the p'nutty deadline for OFC ends. With the history of UFO grifts and ops there is a 99% chance of this also being a letdown.

However, Su Walker and Ref. White Otter are not really the kind of people I would like to laugh about, they seem sincere and non-grifty and are both struggling with big health issues [despite P'nut contact - the P'nti explanation is that medical miracles are also not allowed until OFC because they would be too obvious + playing favourites :smithcloud: ].

But if crazy poo poo happens shortly before or on the 21st of December, I swaer I will go hog wild with Pnut telepathy training and open a goon discord server for us to practice communication with out benevolent new overlords. (pls don't send them goatse telepathically, because that's a probin).
