Really weird to me how incredibly rich white men get to say stuff like "in three to four years we'll be achieving nuclear fusion from honey" and the stock markets go "wow, sounds great bro!" and the news just reports it with maybe a paragraph at the end of "critics say this is unlikely".

In our most recent 'Behind the Grail' #Patreon discussion, Greg and I reviewed Spielberg's #DisclosureDay and how it portrayed 'screen memories'; which are thought to be false recollections of encounters with owls, deer, or other animals, in order to conceal a meeting with #alien creatures.
Yes yes, who could have imagined that the promise to have a humanoid robot army on the Moon building satellites and yeeting them into orbit using a lunar catapult to create orbital data centres and make humanity a Kardashev Scale 2 civilization might have been oversold?

Please read this and share. Fark.com and the Daily Grail both came up in the same early era, and everything @drewcurtis.bsky.social says here mirrors what I wish all our readers (or actually, all internet users) knew. TLDR: Support genuine websites financially, or they'll soon be gone forever!
So with regards to what I said about how Fark won't survive this year without more TF subscribers, I wrote up a longer explanation about what we're all up against. Not just Fark, all of digital media.

If all these #UFO whistleblowers are still waiting for the perfect opportunity, when all the planets align and all the amendments are voted in so they can finally come forward, then surely the threat UFOs represent can’t be that terrible or imminent, can it?
I’ve often wondered what would have happened if insiders would have had the knowledge to stop tragedies like Pearl Harbor, the JFK assassination, or 9-11, and chose not to because the fear for their personal security outweighed the consequences of saying nothing.

This is a fantastic breakdown of the Trump administration's proposal to fundamentally change science in the United States. The only problem: It fails to note it's being enacted by Peter Thiel's right-hand man Michael Kratsios, and is almost entirely Thiel's vision. bigthink.com/starts-with-...
