And they’re only allowed to age 2 years during shooting.

Not to hate because we’re still enjoying it, but does anyone else feel like the show generally fails to capture this kind of feeling from the comic? I feel like the comic does a great job of pointing out the sheer absurdity of so much human activity, while the show seems to be more of a generic sitcom with strangely-dictating aliens instead of humans.

Rudy has gained huge amounts in the shadows that we have not ever heard about. His accounts in Lichtenstein and the Caymans are probably pretty fat and happy these days, and not even RICO can touch that. I wouldn’t count on this being anything other than more distraction.

Yes, streams of piss-soaked garbage content such as Joe Rogan and Jordan Peterson. They and their fans are braindead morons that are driving the dumbing-down effect that they themselves want to complain about.

EDIT: Also given Levi’s controversial opinions, which he readily claims he has lifted directly from aforementioned podcasters, we should probably be concerned as to what he considers “garbage.”

Strong argument in favor of bringing back CRTs.

80 to 340 tons is a significant range. Sounds more like they’re trying to build hype than they actually know.

Start by regularly assuming that a 95% chance has a near 0% likelihood.

Then, allow yourself to become reliant on soldiers that you spend a huge amount of time training and equipping, and then accept them being insta’d during some random mission which softlocks you from progressing in the game because now all you have are recruits with garbage gear who get eaten alive in seconds.

Lastly, discover a desire to punch Sid Meier in the face.

That was my experience with XCOM, at least.

The same people who voted them into office also very readily complain about how horribly ineffective and corrupt they were (except Reagan). The number of people I’ve talked to that claimed they hated Trump but then admitted they of course voted for the Republican is high.

They do not even try to settle their own cognitive dissonance. Some I’ve talked to were proud of it when pointed out.

As long as it’s free to the public, I’m here for it. They’re a government agency, if they try to make this a paid subscription, we need to revolt immediately.

Well, I posted a fun write up here in the comments about why this is cool and what we should really expect from this, ince a lot of people are uncertain about anything going on here being important or even new. Spent like an hour and a half on it, since I’ve been following this topic closely for my own entertainment for a while now. Thanks for apparently losing it in transit, kbin.

What’s new:

The military released videos some years back it claims are of unknown technology, and are doubling down that the videos are real. The most substantial of these are the GIMBAL video from the Nimitz Incident (Fravor’s testimony) and the Mosul orb (which has no attached testimony).

Years after the videos were released, David Grusch and the others are using a new whistleblower hotline that was started very recently. Grusch claims that he’s been waiting in the wings for years for just this opportunity, as he has learned of heinous crimes being committed against the American people.

Matt Gaetz, putting politics cautiously aside, just stated on official record that he directly saw evidence of UAPs that has been hidden by the government. This means people that actually have something to lose are coming forward and making extraordinary claims.

The truth:

Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence, and all whistleblowers involved readily admit they only have hearsay to bring to the table. None of them witnessed any real evidence first-hand in a substantial fashion, they mostly are sharing stories they were told by supposed first-hand witnesses. Grusch claims he knows a number of specific names and places, but he’s not telling the public and has further stated he will lie to the public to protect himself. Nothing else has been confirmed, and all videos and images released to the public are blurry and inconclusive.

What we can hope for:

Let’s see them aliens already.

What we should hope for:

Investigations into the trillions of dollars “lost” by the Pentagon. Some accountability would be fantastic.

What we will probably get:

[REDACTED]

Cool that such striking testimonies were entered into official record. Future investigations should continue to be interesting, and it’s always good to see bipartisan support anywhere in congress. UFOs/UAPs are a fun topic, even if there are still likely terrestrial explanations such as adversarial weapons we don’t know about.

Stargate yes, Star Trek no.

I’m pretty pissed they tied UAP declassification in with this agenda garbage. The one thing that was both interesting and bipartisan, and they had to shit it up.
