If aliens landed, I would still have to pay bills. What difference does it make, at the end of the day?
the ufo thing is just a grift, they aren't going to say anything about ufos even if they win the midterms. trump thinks your stupid, just like in 2024 when he said he knows what the ufos are and then stopped talking about it once he won the election.
Be a lot better if workers were more serious about organizing and striking
At this point a real alien could come down the sky and people wouldn't give a fuck. Hard to care about aliens when you are homeless and starving
exactly lol

WMD: weapon of mass distraction
I think I can assume from here that there aren't any aliens, because they would NOT be touching this for a cheap distraction if there was anything of note to see.
Oh i don't doubt its aliens, just.... microbial. Literally nothing major to speak of, single celled organisms.
That's still infinitely more extraterrestrial life than we have proof of today
Why would they classify that information if its just microbial? The motivation for classification is clear if the aliens are flying around in UFOs (so they can reverse engineer their tech without adversaries of the US finding out) but there is no realistic motivation for why they might classify microbial life
Life of any kind on other worlds would upend lots of religious doctrine which insists that this place is special and that life was specifically put here for us.
But then again that assumes that these religions are logically consistent, so it probably wouldn’t matter.
Yeah. If they classify microbial life because it conflicts with religious dogma then you’d expect them to classify any scientific finding that conflicts with religious dogma, which doesn't seem to be the case.

That would be a humongous world-changing announcement in a sane timeline. Half the people in our stupid culture wouldn't even register it as a blip though.
In situations like this I like to think of the history students a thousand years from now, assuming the earth is still habitable, etc.
"So humanity's first public recognition of extraterrestrial life only happened when it did to distract from the fact that the Big Country at the time had reelected the planet's worst person AGAIN and they needed to delay justice until they died for... let me double check the text... they needed to delay getting in trouble for being at the top of a global human trafficking and rape operation?
And I am supposed to believe these people had running water, airplanes, internet, and space programs? They lied about every other damn thing!"

Yeah this is devastating news for UFO enthusiasts. Even the craziest alien conspiracist probably understands when Trump is wriggling like an eel
There are no sex offenders in space, because in space, noone can hear you scream.
How could my client have "blown Bubba" in a vacuum, your honor?
Government of what? Which government?
Sorry. The topically stupid one
Do you have any idea how little that narrows it down?
How many non-stupid governments exist at the moment?
There's a few. But I see what you mean.
Gov, Inc.
The Government™
Hmmm... 🤔
Your banana republic regime then ?

You know what? I want to believe. But if it comes out of this adminstration, I won't. It's the perfect cover.
The only way I'm gonna believe is if greys land in DC, enter the White House, and drag Trump away for intergalactic trial because he also molested one of their minors.
Wasn’t there some press conference under Bush where they walked out an alien, which was just some guy in a costume?
...too late, i win...
the owls are not what they seem (it's totally owls)
...it's totally owls...
there's the fact the us government is a lying piece of garbage.
idiot country. A few years ago I needed many more words to describe it. These days this suffices
We (the US) really are a shithole country.
What annoys me is that all he basically said was that he believes in the Drake Equation. Not that we have encountered aliens or have definite proof of their existence; just that with how big the universe is and how much diverse life exists on this one rock, there's no way there isn't life elsewhere on other rocks somewhere.
But we don't know all the variables for the Drake equation! It's still possible that we're alone in the observable universe.
Anyone have the original
The guys with the impossible meat? This?
I meant just the x-files wojak lol
My b 😅
Literally just use paint to draw a white square over the ghost/alien thing.
Don't ask for the sauce, if you don't want the sauce 🙈
