    The Kremlin chief, who sent his troops into Ukraine last February, blamed Volodymyr Zelensky for the continued violence.

     

    Putin is reportedly poised to use his speech at an upcoming G20 meeting to urge world leaders to work out a strategy for ending the war.

    He talks about this conflict as if it’s something happening to him and he has no influence on its direction at all. Weird.

    Those all look to me like a bug that landed on the camera.

    Ah yes, the bugs that fly out over the middle of the ocean and land on fighter jet cameras…

     

    Go look up and listen to the pilot testimonies, they talk about seeing the craft on their situational awareness sensors and in some cases flying close enough to see them with their eyes. So no, they’re not bugs landing on cameras.

    Yeah I don't want it to come off as if I'm dismissing the idea of it. I think it's certainly possible (and IMO fascinating).

     

    But I'm inherently a bit skeptical about a lot of the standard UFO stuff. The grainy pictures, the anecdotal evidence, the "this time it's totally real", and on and on. This just feels like a possible continuation of that same trend…

     

    I'd actually love for evidence to come out and actually know it's true. But until that happens, I remain leaning "probably mostly BS".

    We’re on the same page, I think most of the standard UFO stuff involving grainy pictures and anecdotal stories from random people are mostly BS. However, the accounts from military pilots and officials from the past few years have been hard for me to dismiss. Something is going on. It could be a more sophisticated form of BS involving government officials, advanced military technology, or something unbelievable and out of this world. Or some/all of the above. We just don’t know enough to say for sure.

    Yeah I really don't think my position of "I'll believe in a massive conspiracy involving extraterrestrials, UFOs, the US government, and the Vatican when I see some actual evidence for it" is all that controversial.

    Your position is not controversial, it makes sense with the information we currently have. I think there’s a gradient to the likelihood that some of the claims being made are true, and the extremes of completely dismissing them or 100% believing in them are both wrong. 

     

    Five years ago I would have said there is almost no chance that UFOs/UAPs are some other life form visiting us from some other planet/dimension/etc. Just based on what we’ve learned over the past few years I think there is greater weight/likelihood of it being true, and I would put the likelihood at a 5%-10% chance. Still unlikely, but the increase from <1% to 5%-10% over a couple years feels huge.

    But what specific and falsifiable facts has he provided? If he hasn't provided something that can easily be shown to be false, then he won't go to prison.

    Totally agree, they should give him the clearance to show what he has to those who can see them. It would be good for others to verify what he has even if the facts aren’t displayed publicly.

    Yes, totally. But it was made to some Congressional staffers and lawyers who I won't identify and there are no public records available so you can't see it or hear it. But it happened, bro. Scout's honor.

    Gotcha, the thing is Grusch’s testimony to congress is recorded for anyone to watch. If he’s lying he goes to prison, I think that adds a little more weight to his claims than claims by others in the past.

    We've heard this exact same sort of song and dance before, though. "I totally have evidence, I just can't show it to you"

     

    I totally have a girlfriend who is a famous model and actress. But I can't tell you who it is and you can't meet her because of her public profile. But a couple of people I know have met her and totally say she's real, but you can't talk to them either, for the same reasons.

    But did you testify to congress under oath that you have a famous model actress girlfriend?

    They’re fantasy guys. At least I know Hartitz is. They aren’t really analyzing him as a QB as much as he is a fantasy option. Apples to oranges to what we care about BUT Sam has been pretty good fantasy wise this year. 

    Yup I usually stay away from our QBs for obvious reasons, but I picked Sam up to replace Justin Fields. Not regretting it so far.

    Perfect transition from a Commander's loss to a game break to show how great Dallas is playing and seeing their receivers with about 10 catches each for big yards. Ugh, Thanksgiving is going to be rough. 

    Great. I’ll be with my wife’s family in the Midwest for Thanksgiving, so it’s going to be fun being the guy at dinner who’s team gets curb stomped on national TV. Why does our team have to be so embarrassing?
