Mexico. That’s an incredibly clear photograph. Classic flying saucer. Could it possibly be real? Too good to be true? (We constantly say we want clear photos. Then when we get them, our first instinct is to say “it must be fake.” Still healthy skepticism is probably called for.)...

Holy smokes. Back to the topic of psychics and psychic spies again. O.K., so the story goes that the Stargate project was started by the CIA because they knew that the Russians were experimenting with such things. Now I learn that the Chinese also had a program to identify children who had...

Updated! 2025 list of best Tiki Bars. https://www.chowhound.com/1789290/best-tiki-bars-in-america/ America needs tiki bars more than ever. Escape to a 1950s version of tropical paradise that never existed. Where men wore sweat-stained linen suits and had parrots on their shoulders. Where...

News from Representative Anna Paulina Luna. SCIF hearing will be on 29 April; Round table discussion the following day or the next day; And a full committee HEARING on UAP the week of 12 May. https://x.com/repluna?lang=en The significance of this is that, after two years, they have finally...

Fellow armchair archaeologists! Time to grab your hats and whips! What follows is an update on Gunung Padang: https://rri.co.id/en/national/1246302/minister-to-gather-archaeologists-for-research-on-gunung-padang The adventure so far (this is a very short version): First noticed by westerners...

Thank you for this perspective, Lizzie. Your first paragraph is a sad commentary on the state of things. As a boring, old, middle class, rule follower (mostly surrounded by other boring, old, middle class rule followers) I sometimes forget that the online world Is a bit like the old Wild West...

Ha ha! Yes! Godwin’s Law in action! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Godwin's_law Of course, just because Godwin’s Law applies, it does not automatically mean that the Nazis did NOT have a secret base in Antarctica. btw, over at the WWII discussion site, there is an entire thread about rumored...

Science fiction is ever closer To being reality. The following story is in today’s NYTimes, but I’m linking the Reuters version to avoid the Time’s paywall. https://www.reuters.com/science/scientists-find-strongest-evidence-yet-life-an-alien-planet-2025-04-16/ In short, it seems that we...

From Finland. Hmm. This one seems a little too good to be true. First, it seems odd that the alleged UFO is playing around so far away in the sky, and then suddenly swings down and comes so close to the camera. Secondly, the light on the snow at the end strikes me as ever so slightly “off”...

Thank you. Fair enough. So, some of the guests might be bots stealing content. I still wonder what the financial model of this place is. Am I correct in assuming that advertising revenue is generated based on the number of views? In which case the number of guests visiting the FL must be...

More on Russian UFO experiences from Congressional Record submission. Starting about paragraph 8… https://static.foxnews.com/foxnews.com/content/uploads/2023/07/George-Knapp-Congressional-Record-Submission.pdf What does it all mean?

Welcome, DogFacePonySoldier! The Fedora Lounge Adventure Speakeasy Klub (F.L.A.S.K.) has covered everything from sea monsters to lost cities to ghosts and the paranormal to bizarre mysteries. But I don’t think we’ve ever talked about strange (or illegal) goings-on at the CIA. Probably this is...

Back to the paranormal/psychic topic: This is pretty wild. https://psigamesinternational.com/ I guess the idea behind this event is to increase coverage of the psychic topic, and to identify people who actually have (or claim to have) these abilities in a controlled setting, thereby...

How does that work, anyways? I have no idea. Why would a bot visit this place? What’s your estimate? If I sound like I’m clueless about this stuff, it’s because I was born deep in the last century. :-)

Dang. Got me some boot envy.
