OT: 113th Obsequious Banter Thread: 1 of 13, a baker's dozen

[Hollywood Cannon]

I mean they couldn't cover up like 1 person knowing that the President got a bl**j** from an intern.

I'm supposed to believe that for half a century or more there's been ZERO 'death-bed' confessions about alien technology/alien bodies and evidence released?

We had a deathbed confession from like 1 of maybe a half-dozen to dozen people who were aware that Ronald Reagan negotiated with Iran to *KEEP* the hostages held and not release them for Jimmy Carter in order to hurt Carter's chances of beating Reagan. Now this was always 'hinted at' for the last 20+ years, but finally one of the people who was part of the small delegation working on Reagan's behalf admitted to it.

But despite having undoubtedly hundreds if not THOUSANDS of more people involved with the alien technology and recovery there was never a death-bed release of information/knowledge of the programs or recoveries?

I mean the fact that anyone that says they've interacted with aliens is immediately looked as if they're a nutjob doesn't help.

 

[Young Sandwich]

I think you misunderstood what I wrote.

All of this alien nonsense is contingent on the US government covering up knowledge.

What would make you think that the US government is capable of covering up aliens if they are that far advanced? The US government is certainly capable of having black projects, building R&D pretty far ahead of industry... (SR-71 for example)

Somehow they've managed to acquire an alien spaceship with lifeforms and covered it up? Give me a break. Sounds like something people believe who also think the word gullible sounds like orange juice when said out loud.

People want to believe there are aliens at Area 51. What's likely there is weapon research / aircraft / etc.

I don't think they necessarily had to. There's always been a stigma involved with this stuff that it took care of itself for the most part. A stigma likely created by them in the first place.

According to this new information coming out from Grusch, most of these "retrievals" are done by private entities and not necessarily the government. That's where all this new proposed legislation seemingly stems from; private entities basically bogarting all this absurd technology and hiding it from everyone else (including most of the government, though there are supposedly factions/individuals that are privy to the information and hiding it themselves). Government officials knowing about this and not sharing that knowledge is a criminal offense, so of course they wouldn't want that information getting out there.

I've said I'm mostly agnostic but.....my very own mother as a witness in the mountains of Italy is pretty hard to discount. She has like no effin reason to lie.

Now this whole situation in Congress may very well be a disinformation campaign to distract the public from advanced tech that foreign adversaries have acquired somehow that is embarassing to our national defense/offense capabilities. Better to blame aliens
Then you have the likes of Matt Gaetz and his ilk that cynically use shit like this as a political weapon to get the lowest common denominators to distrust the institution of government only as long as it benefits him and his cabal of reactionaries when they are part of government but in power. Go figure...

@Chinatown88 I spent a few hours yesterday reading in a chair by a fire in Hobbiton. This trip rules.

Dis too? Cause that sounds like a great Jojo retreat.

Well, I'm officially having my procedure (ureteroscopy and lithotripsy) on Tuesday. I've never had any sort of procedure done before and I'm beyond scared, especially about the post op period. I was really hoping it wouldn't have to come to this.

Even better. Coffee.

If you don't quickly learn how to fly fish and promptly catch the wild trout of a lifetime, you are dead to me.

Ok, so we did go out a guided raft fishing day on the Tongariro River. We couldn't do the "better" section of the river this time of year, but trout were caught.

However, my wife is spending the next 2 days somewhere they have to helicopter into while I'm busy in the city. I know it's back in the Taupo area, but the only other thing I know is that I was told I don't want to know the price.

If the only thing that comes from this is a clean DoD audit, then that'd be incredible. The bloat can be reallocated to climate change programs

As far as other countries, Mexican Air Force reported seeing the diamond formation described in the Gimbal Video off the east coast in the same area of the Tic Tac video (Coast of San Diego) weeks later.

No Human/Technology we currently have can withstand that many G's.

Unless someone is harnessing Gravitational Waves somehow there is no way to get that level of speed. Even if its using Nuclear/Atomic propulsion.

You are very much still alive to me, well done. Consider me insanely jealous.

Isn't it a bit chilly there right now? It's winter more or less for them. Still jelly though, enjoy.

It seems like straight up space/time manipulation, which is incredible. There are supposed witness accounts out there where people say they've been inside one of these recovered crafts. They look small from the outside, but the inside was the size of a football field and time moved significantly slower/faster while inside. I have a hard time believing those claims, but just the thought of that type of technology existing is insane.

I'm skeptical overall, but I want all of it to be real.

We're stuck in the Philly metro while my parents are around, but we're strongly considering moving here eventually. This is the exploratory trip. I've never been able to take enough time off at once to actually come out here before. And I don't think I want to be on a plane that long again unless I'm staying.

Isn't it a bit chilly there right now? It's winter more or less for them. Still jelly though, enjoy.

Yeah, this is winter. But the highs are pushing 60F. It's not cold.

im just saying, it's gravitational waves, which Einstein did theorize

Scientists Resurrected an Extinct Animal Frozen for 46,000 Years in Siberia

“Their evolution was literally suspended for 40k years,” wrote one scientist of the revived nematodes from a species unknown to science until now.

The government isn't denying the existence of UAP's they are just saying it's classified or we can't tell you...why not just fully deny.

Anyone have any tinfoil?

Scientist’s Deep Dive for Alien Life Leaves His Peers Dubious (Published 2023)

Avi Loeb, a Harvard astrophysicist, says that material recovered from the seafloor could be from an extraterrestrial spacecraft. His peers are skeptical.

Here you go:

“Not biological creatures, the way you see in science fiction movies,” Dr. Loeb said. “It’s most likely a technological gadget with artificial intelligence."

I don't think it's particularly easy to immigrate too. Generally speaking from what I can tell you're more or less allotted points depending on how useful you'll be to the country.

I went a few years back. Incredibly beautiful place. Drove about 2500 miles in 6 days.
