MH370's video, like the mummies, the mothman or the Sandown clown have an inherently Tricksterish nature and we'll NEVER get the whole story about them. They are rabbit holes for people to jump into and get lost, for as long as they want to play.

Nobody has better respect for intelligence than Donald Trump.

If we're really doing the plane again I will reiterate that it should be at least somewhat congruent with the pre-existing narratives about that event. E.g.:

-Timing being between ATC handoffs mean that ayy lmaos understand patterns of communication between airborne planes and find it preferable to act in a way that does not provoke immediate search and rescue

-Plane turning in video before first orb begins circling means that either orbs induced turn, or pilot(s) noticed airborne bird and took evasive maneuver, or orb appearance is response to turn

-Video showing very sharp turn is partially consistent with released Malaysian military radar info; more detailed tracks remain classified

-Non-simultaneous loss of radio signals suggests orbs are capable of fine manipulation of electrical systems, and ate knowledgable of communications protocols

-Sketchy dudes with experience in low oxygen environments above emitting antenna, on plane containing unspecified "radio parts", heading to a country quite capable at producing electronic equipment cheaply

-extensive seafloor mapping of a remote area

Just remember that even if they somehow prove the higher resolution pictures of the clouds in the background have been faked (upscaled through AI?) and uploaded later, it doesn't prove that the orbs and/or the portal are real.

I won't blame anybody tl;dr'ing this post. I'm just some goon on the internet and in all my 41 years on this earth and ten some odd on SA, the only thing I'm sure of is experiences and happenings only matter to the person they happen to.

Anyway, small bit of backstory. Since Covid hit the US in earnest, my life has been a shitshow. Furloughed at work, my mom passed away then a few months later, my nana.

This year, my wife and I have lost two pets, both cats. Wembley and Pancake. Our two little brothers.

The day I brought Pancakes ashes back from the vet, my wife surprised me with a new male kitten, named Indy (I call him Henry Jones Jr as a nickname).

A couple of weeks ago, we adopted his mother from the shelter and this is her second week here. We named her Gilly. She's timid but loves pets, and Indy and her play. It's taking some time for the other cats to warm to her, but I think it'll happen.

So just now, getting home from work, I did my routine, getting out of work clothes, putting wallet and belt up, etc. Our car Jack always comes into the bedroom with me, it's our little ritual.

I picked her up and bundled her a bit, then set her down and went to wash my hands. She went down the hall and into the living room and Indy followed me into the bathroom.

After drying my hands, I picked up Indy and cuddled him for a bit and felt a cat brush against my leg. I looked down and no cat was there.

Flat out no cats near me. Gilly has a collar with a bell on it, so her I would hear. All the other cats are in the living room waiting on food. There are NO cats back here with me except the one I'm holding in my arms but I felt a cat brush my leg.

It's a very specific feeling and I'm not drunk, high or sleep deprived. But I felt a cat brush my leg.

Sarah has felt a cat jump on the bed. We close the bedroom door when we lay down. We love our cats, but sleeping with them is impossible. But several times a week we would leave the door open half and hour or so while we were getting ready and the boys would come in and lay on the bed and either cuddle up with us or just enjoy being around us while we talked and did little tasks before bed.

I don't know...my wife hasn't turned off the lamp beside her recliner since we lost Pancake, the oldest boy and second brother cat a few months ago. She told me it's in case that they retain..something after. And she wants them to be able to find their way home.

I know exactly how she feels and it sort of makes me feel better than somebody can feel comforted by similar thoughts.

Like I said. I'm just a goon on the internet who's lost a lot lately, but I felt a cat brush against my leg.

Also wasn't the exact portal effect sprite discovered too in some 1990's video game, was that ever addressed

There have been numerous indications of the video being both very real, and a very good fake, but never a 100% smoking gun evidence for one or the other option. Just like with the mummies. Depending on what you want to believe all options are on the table, and every time one side of the balance gains more weight, something tips it in the other direction.

Pattern recognition does play a role, it helps to decode any kind of message. And it most certainly helps mentalists and people doing cold readings. But it's not sufficient to explain 100% of all cases. Anyone genuinely open minded about psychic phenomenon and ESP will eventually encounter cases where pattern recognition isn't a sufficient explanation. Cases where there has to be something really weird on the other end of the line. Exactly the same as with UFOs. Many cases can be reduced to natural explanations, but there are so many other situations that are basically proving the phenomenon is real and mysterious, it's just so intellectually dishonest to claim everything can be reduced to events explainable through the current development of modern science. And it's even kind of stupid, like saying "we already know everything there is to know"

the capabilities of the right hemisphere are much greater than "we" know....because it cannot speak. it must communicate to us via other means.

think of how many times you've had a dream that felt like it had a message, or at least a theme that was consistent and relevant to your waking life. that is not an accident.

The portal pattern appears to be an extremely common one in nature so that debunk doesn't really mean anything, the shape seems to be pretty consistently just what blobby expanding things look like

I agree, there were at least 5 very specific points of perfect correspondence on top of the general shape being the same, but apparently not everyone agrees with this so I have to admit that the video still exists in an undetermined state of being both fake and real, so that everyone can decide if they want to align with a reality where orbs steal planes full of people (and said plane debris are found later in the sea) or not.
