Reid, age 81, told The New Yorker that he had never actually seen proof of the remnants, but was rebuffed in his efforts to get Pentagon approval to find them. Reid was the longtime Senator from Nevada, the home of military base Area 51, long rumored to house UFOs and possibly even live aliens.
“I was told for decades that Lockheed had some of these retrieved materials,” the Democrat told the media outlet.“And I tried to get, as I recall, a classified approval by the Pentagon to have me go look at the stuff. They would not approve that. I don’t know what all the numbers were, what kind of classification it was, but they would not give that to me.”

Interesting compilation of things Tom Delonge has said.If you read this with an open mind this could explain the entire UAP.Could be nonsense as well.

Watched it now and yeah the schoolchildren talking about environmental stuff seems to be a bit much for them to all concoct it as a hoax to mess with their teachers or something.

That and the missile base stuff is strange.

"You want to know the real message here? The real message is that this stuff can brand you for life. It undermined Mack’s credibility, became this huge unending thing for others, and it certainly hosed me up. I mean, try telling people that you live in permanent fear of these things returning one day. Try telling them that you can actually sense when they’re back in our atmosphere. They’ll think you’re a kook. All this lot do,” she said, casting mock-angry eyes down the bar at a fellow boozer, who raised his glass and said: “True, but we love you anyway, Sê.”

I should also say that I’ve looked at his evidence, listened to interviews, sorted through 200 receipts for planes chartered by Larry King with five-to-eight unnamed passengers, and I’ve read the book carefully. I can think of no innocent explanation for why King would be flying children, some of them spirited out of the Catholic orphanage Boys Town, around the United States, mostly to Washington. I’ve listened to Nick at great length on the phone about all of this as he was reporting. I have listened to him in the immediate aftermath of strange phone calls and death threats over the years.

This isn’t “conspiracy theory.” It’s one of the best investigative books I’ve ever read. If it’s true, then there are significant elements in America’s ruling class that are depraved beyond Caligula’s dreams. And I don’t see how it isn’t true.

i grew up where "the legend of boggy creek" occurred, the land we had was also where the film was made. the swamps hid so many insane things. alligator gars. old highways. bounding hills flooded with the remains of thousands of years of life.

we once brought home a goat from my aunt and uncles farm. built a 15ft tall enclosure next to our barn. it was there for exactly 3 days until it vanished.

i grew up in one of these

the pastor literally used an overhead projector one morning to explain how many horses/soldier would have to die to flood the valley of hinnom up to a horses's belly

he then surmised that the scripture could mean that many people died battling the antichrist, maybe not just in that area, or maybe it included spilled oil/hydraulic fluid from Abrams tanks

good poo poo, real smart guy, he left the church to work as a missionary in france (????), was a bigwig for the SBC in tennessee i think, and is now back in oklahoma

This is the reason why I'm really conflicted. My gut feeling is that this is largely disinformation to gin up whatever the gently caress they want to do, but clearly they don't have to go through this rigmarole. This is a nightmare nation that will gladly fund anything the current strong daddy desires. Why bother to do this?

I also am willing to guess if this is literally aliens, very little will change because they've seemingly been doing this for a while, they don't seem to affect us, and people will move on.

They have some trouble with vowels. For example 8 and 18 both sound like "aitee", something like that. I do kind of hear Gina as female, but that might just be because I associate the name Gina with female gender. They didn't give me any magazines at first, then they gave me all sorts of materials. It hink they do that to figure out what turns us on.

Harry Turtledove's The Road Not Taken

I actually sent the link to my brother after it got posted in CSpam a while back, so it was easy to find again

Though iirc it was apparently based on something Asimov wrote?

Antifa Turkeesian posted:

Maybe write to your senator? Apparently senators have the highest security clearance possible by virtue of serving in the senate, so Diane Feinstein and Josh Hawley can get an accurate answer to any question about crashed ships or secret massacres or MKULTRA or whatever. I don't know how they'd go about asking or if there has to be a reason for them to be informed, but you apparently don't need a related committee appointment.

Vomik posted:

yep as I mentioned above about hangar 18 - if you are on the base and drive by it it’s covered in guard towers with machine guns and the signs on the fence say if you jump over this fence you will be fired upon. something be a secret doesn’t mean it’s a fun sci fi romp

if it actually were the government it would be because they want to control the populace by introducing unseeable enemies with advanced weaponry that could wipe us out at any time

I think 95% of abduction stories are probably just sleep paralysis experienced by somebody who doesn't know what it is and can't explain it. Just like 95% of UFO sightings are just the planet Venus.

blatman posted:

I remember hearing somewhere that sleep paralysis is caused by most of your "time for sleep" systems engaging but not all of them - so partial paralysis to prevent sleepwalking, brain starts squeezing brain juice through your brain bits to purge the waste proteins you produced through the day - except you haven't actually lost consciousness so now you're stuck in bed unable to move except now you've got a ton of synapses randomly firing because your brain is rinsing out all the gunk while your still-conscious mind tries desperately to make sense out of the random information + growing anxiety because you can't get away from the lizards melting out of the walls or whatever

Spergin Morlock posted:

sleep paralysis is just a situation where your muscles are deactivated as if you're dreaming, but you're semi-conscious. there's nothing otherworldy or UFOish about it, it just sucks when it happens especially if youve never experienced it before

Yeah forget missiles, I wanna see what happens when you blast one of these things with everything an Aegis radar has to throw at it

quote:

“In one case over Arak in November 2004, the crew... spotted a luminous object flying near the heavy water plant... When the beam of the jet’s radar ‘painted’ the object, both the RIO and pilot saw that the radar scope was disrupted, probably due to the high magnetic energy of the object increasing the power of the reflected radar waves. The pilot described the object as being spherical, with something like a green afterburner creating a considerable amount of turbulence behind it. The Tomcat crew achieved a lock-on when it was flying a linear and constant flight path. Once the pilot selected [a missile] to launch against it, the object increased its speed and then disappeared like a meteor.”

Butternubs posted:

There is no good evidence that UAPs are extra-terrestrial, I too want to gently caress ET but the leaps of faith people are taking towards any of these second hand stories and lovely radar footage being ALF is silly.

people have been seeing ghosts since medieval times, does that make them real too?

Every night I draw a pentagram around my dick and yet no ghost has sucked me off. Debunked!
