Ep 300: The Astonishing Legends All-Star Holiday Special

"Christmas is the season where you buy this year’s gifts with next year’s money."  -- Unknown

Description:

It’s the fifth Year of our annual Astonishing Legends Holiday Special, and we’re back with our crew from last year. We all love getting together this time of year to reflect on everything that went right or wrong over the past 12 months and consider what parts of our collective reality have eroded and what parts have solidified. Join us as we celebrate the friendships we’ve built along the way and the joys of working together across the paranormal and real spectrum. It’s a perfect way to kick back, relax, and embrace the holiday spirit with us. So grab your favorite drink and cozy up as we share some fun tales and look ahead to what 2025 has in store. Everyone’s welcome!

Change the F*cking Channel

This one is kind of... well... VERY political and I will make no apologies. We’re living in a time where simply being human is political. If you don’t think so, you haven’t been paying attention. And you NEED to pay attention.

There is an amazing podcaster by the name of Micah Hanks. While better known for his eponymous show centering on UFO/UAP phenomenon, he did have a great current events podcast called Middle Theory which I have binged a few times. One of the recurring themes on the show was the issue of “cancel culture” and... yeah... I have things to say on the subject. 

No, I’m not taking Mr. Hanks on. On the contrary, we’re very much of a similar mind on the topic. Mr. Hanks, in my opinion, expressed the pitfalls of cancel culture rather sensibly and eloquently. I just want to take a few moments to share my feelings on it.

I was born in 1980. If you remember the 1980s, you remember that it was the “liberal” left declaring war on music and video games. (Take a breath. I’m a Progressive Liberal, so you’re not gonna be getting MAGA bullshit. And if you want MAGA bullshit... go somewhere else.) Tipper Gore, Al’s missus, is the reason why nearly every album in my metalhead kid brother’s CD collection had a parental advisory label. It’s been “liberals” decrying simulated violence in video games for violent actions among young people. (Not, of course, addressing issues like home life, mental health issues, bullying, etc.) 

Now, it wasn’t just the left, of course. Who could forget the late Jerry Falwell’s homophobic crusade against the Teletubbies? And, as a child of the 80s, I clearly recall conservatives losing it over shows like He-Man, She-Ra, Rainbow Bright, The Care Bears, The Smurfs, and my personal favorite, Captain Planet and the Planeteers. Why? These shows promoted tolerance, inclusion, environmentalist ideologies and, in the case of Captain Planet, Neopaganism. They weren’t wrong about that, but being a Wiccan kid, that’s why I loved this stuff. But, you know, you can’t promote tolerance and inclusion because that’s a threat to “traditional values”. (Translation: Christian values) 

Back in the 80s and 90s, when both sides were being painfully stupid about what American kids should and should not be allowed to consume, the general public seemed to have the same attitude. If you don’t like it, don’t consume it. 

What the ever-loving fuck happened? Look, most reasonable people can agree that there are some ideas that are harmful. Calling for violence against any individual or group is bad, regardless of how you might feel about them. Hate-speech is unacceptable at any time. However, due to the 24 hours news cycle and it’s 10 second sound bites as well as the proliferation of social media, there is no room for nuanced discussion. Some public figure says something that gave you boo-boos on your feelings, cancel them.

Like I said, I consider myself to be a Progressive Liberal, but I come from a more moderate/centrist time. I come from a time when it was possible to have well reasoned and measured dialogue about opposing viewpoints. I come from a time when the fringe elements didn’t have 24/7 platforms to barf up their conspiracy theories or their anti-whatever manifestos. I come from a time when schools promoted critical thinking. *sigh* Those were the days...

Obviously, we had people try to limit what could and could not be disseminated, but we had ways around it. If you remember the 90s, you know it was all about independent media. Independent music labels, pirate radio, independent coffee shops with open mic nights, zines... man, I miss my teens! This was how Generation X and “Elder Millennials” got by the censorship. And now... they support censorship because that was cancel culture is. 

Let me give you all a little more perspective. My parents were Boomers. When they were kids, there were only 3 broadcast television networks and a handful of AM/FM radio stations. Print media was how most people consumed the daily news and news media was forbidden to report on anything BUT the news. No pundits pontificating and giving their opinions. They just gave you the facts. (It would be great if we could get back to that.) When my parents were young, the married couples could not share a bed in films or television. Lucille Ball broke ground for women’s rights when she refused to hide her pregnancy on her show, “I Love Lucy”. (She also helped get Star Trek made, so praise her name, nerds.) 

Compare that to today. We have hundreds of thousands of podcasts spanning just as many genres and topics. Mr. Hanks has half of them! (I tease with love. He only had 3... for now.) Broadcast television is almost dead, but it’s still out there with hundreds of channels and then you have the growing number of video streaming services. Social media is.. well, it’s a cesspool, but it’s there. We are in a time where we actually have too many options for our entertainment and for our information. And yet... one show, one person, one song, one “something” sets off a small demographic and everyone has to come out in force and demand that he/she/it/they get “canceled”. Why? Change the fucking channel. Find something else. You have the freedom to choose... just like everyone else. 

Alright, I’m done. End rant.

[Micah was telaporting everywhere trying to find them. After he was informed about his sister being stabbed, he got worried. How could he let this happen!? How!? Was he that irresponsible!? Would death and gambit even let him near!? The questions were endless]

*Ace was carrying her to Gambit’s room.. or rather his and Gambit’s room. So Hank couldn’t fix her since it was beyond his experience,and he was the only one he trusted. She was then put on the bed and was being guarded by them.*

Dollar Bin #38:

Trans, Interrupted

I get the sneaking suspicion that Neil is not reading these posts.

Here I am this week, spreading big old dollops of love upon what is perhaps the wackiest of his many wacky records and I'm all set to wrap up our Trans trilogy of of posts with a big deal finale. And Young's busy doing what? Reassembling The Promise of Real Potato Pancakes, that's what!

Curses!

Over the weekend, after a summer of doing the gloriously sensible thing and touring with Crazy Horse, Neil showed up for his obligatory Farm Aid set with a band he'd christened as The Chrome Hearts. But do not be fooled, dear readers: The Chrome Hearts are nothing more than The Promise of the Real Porcupines in disguise!

Sure, Spooner Oldham was included to lend the affair a bit of credibility. And sure, somebody bought a clue and fired the band's bongo player.

But we weren't born yesterday Neil: Whitten is dead, Briggs is dead, Ben Keith is dead, Pancho is retired, hell, even Rick "The Bass Player Rosas" is dead. We want The Horse or nobody gracing the stage beside you.

Frankly, I'd rather watch Neil play with Stephen Freakin' Stills. Yes, I just wrote that.

Micah and Co are surely good little boys - I'll bet they are even very fine humans. But they play these songs like they are auditioning for a Shakey cover band and they sound way too accurate, way too slick, way too promising. For God sake, I'll bet that not a single one of them is even drunk during this performance.

Why didn't anyone help Neil come up with a job posting for a new band? It should have been short and simple: Aged, boneheaded geniuses needed. Hipsters need not apply.

But if, at this point in his life, Neil wants to play with sober hipster children he should at least find some who are prepared to strike an original note or six.

Look, I get it: Neil is probably giving Billy Talbot a chance to get his bunions attended to. But if he needed a new band then why'd didn't he check out this one!

Young and Prairewolf could do amazing things together. They'd play their choice of dark brewery corners and create music to make The Chrome Hardons go limp with dread.

What's more, Neil is heartlessly resuscitating the greatest hits from Harvest Moon with his lousy new band. This is the wrong move on so many levels! A) Harvest Moon is overplayed and overrated, B) Briggs hated the record, C) he's not even playing its best songs, Natural Beauty or You and Me.

And, most importantly: D) have a little pity on the ghost of poor Pegi, Neil! Recasting Hank to Hendrix in the past tense, like you did this weekend, and making the song's "big divorce" sound inevitable and all her fault is a cheap move. You're better than that Neil! After all, Dylan isn't busy whipping out Sarah onstage as a "I was in a bad marriage once but I got outta it smoothly" number.

Nor should you, Neil. Nor should you.

Listen, Neil, I've got a way better idea. Why don't you summon Nils and go play Berlin, Trans style, all over again.

That sounds like the Shakey thing to do.

OC vs Cockroach

@the-down-upside-finch tagged me in this and I'm gonna tag @anyablackwood @thetruearchmagos @indecentpause @druidx and whoever else wants to play (no pressure)

Rules: Rate your OCs on how well they’d fare against a cockroach

(For this one, we're gonna get a main character from each of my WIPS >:) because i love y'all and you deserve it)

Piers: 8/10 They'll jump and maybe screech from being startled, especially if it's close by, but they can squash it and clean it up after a bit

Brigid: 0/10 They do not do bugs. Like, at all. Melody will have to come evict it from their dorm room. Alternatively, they'll panic and try to set it on fire and likely scorch a couple other things in the process.

Izumi: 2/10 oh god the way they move Izumi will scream and will make Lapis or Andy come kill it. If she's left to her own devices, there's a 50/50 chance she'll either smash it with her shoe or just cry until it goes away. She's forgetful enough though that she will forget it existed though after a few hours...

Garlan: 10/10 This woman will pick that bug up barehanded and toss it out the window. Her office is covered in papers and stray offerings so roaches (or equivalent in her world) are pretty common

Bithos: 9/10 Smash that fucker, no hesitation, but he might get a little grossed out trying to clean it up.

Cassander: 2/10 No thank you. He will actively call Felix, who is on a mission, to come get it. If it disappears, he will burn the entire house down rather than it come back. (He's not scared of them, but he finds them weird and unnerving).

Alyx: 5/10 Might have a hard time finding the roach (blind) and will absolutely panic if he loses it. If she does find it, she can kill it and toss it without a problem.

Jesse: -10/10 Screaming crying, Lucio has to come get it before he has a mental breakdown (again)

Carter: 10/10 Easy peasy, will pick the bug up and gently place it outside, much to the horror of his husband who is terrified of roaches

Hank: 7/10 Despite being a farming man, he does NOT like how they move. He can get it killed (eventually) but it might take him a minute or to to get the guts to kill it.

LeBlanc: -1000000/10 He opened a package of wafers once and there was one inside the box that fell on him and the poor man has never been the same. He will scream like a little girl and someone else (Micah) will have to come kill it. If it somehow goes missing, he will never step foot in that room again unless it is killed.

Alba Grey: 5/10 Depends. If she's trying to impress Mavi and/or Tabs, she can do it easy peasy, but if she's alone? She might have a slight crying session and have to summon all of her courage to smack it with her shoe. (Don't let the badass exterior fool you)

Karson: ???/10 Isn't bothered by bugs in his space. The only reason he'll even deal with it is if August sees it and gets scared.

Cal: 0/10 NOPE NOPE NOPE NOPE this boy does not do bugs (although there is a chance he'll think it's a hallucination instead and just ignore it in hopes it'll go away....)

Eddie: 10/10 This man can deal with bugs so easily. Smashed and cleaned up before anyone (his daughter) notices

No but seriously imagine it:

You're seeing hank williams on a concert. Everyone is having a great time. Hank Williams seems a little excited. "I have a surprise for you guys." Hank says. All of a sudden Willie Nelson comes out and starts singing "on the road again." When Willie gets to the chorus, someone else starts singing...

"I find it very very easy to be true. I find myself alone when each day is through."

Lights flash everywhere, and you see Hank Williams singing "on the road again" along with Willie Nelson, while Johnny Cash is singing "I walk the line". Everyone in the crowd is going wild and crying. Then if things couldn't get any better, Arthur Morgan and Micah Bell walk onto stage and kiss, holding the gay flag.

[branches-in-a-flood]

YALL.

I finally, after like 10 years, decided to look up what one of the podcasters/fortean researchers I follow looks like.

YOU MEAN TO TELL ME MICAH HANKS HAS LOOKED LIKE THIS THE WHOLE TIME???

AND HE ISNT A 65 YEAR OLD BARELY TAME MOUNTAIN THING?

Ep 274: The Astonishing Legends All-Star Holiday Special IV

"A friend is someone who gives you total freedom to be yourself."  -- Jim Morrison

Description:

Would you look at that? It’s already the end of 2023, and our second favorite annual holiday is upon us. We’re now into our 4th annual tradition of the Astonishing Legends All-Star Holiday Special, and it indeed has taken on a life of its own. This year, we’re welcoming back all of our guests from last year and being joined by a few new ones as well. This show was recorded and broadcast live on video to our Patrons at Patreon.com/astonishinglegends a few weeks ago and in fact, if you are a patron you can still access the uncensored and unedited version of it there. You’ll hear the audio from that presentation, slightly edited for length and propriety tonight. To the extent that’s possible, anyway. The Holiday Special topics are wide-ranging and generally unplanned; this year is no exception. We touched on everything from the ubiquitous UAP phenomenon to podcast production to some of our various guests’ favorite topics of the past year. Allison Jornlin talks about going on Shark Tank with her brother, and Micah Hanks invites us all to come and see the infamous Brown Mountain Lights in North Carolina for ourselves. So get the fire going, settle down under a warm blanket with some eggnog or even a holiday cocktail, and enjoy this wonderful tradition with our returning guests, Richard Hatem, Jim Harold, Micah Hanks, Paul Gledhill, and Allison Jornlin. And please join us in welcoming the hosts of the new Astonishing Legends Network podcast ‘Scared All the Time.’ Stay tuned after the closing credits for a special afterparty and toast to our other network show, ‘The Midnight Library’, and a wonderful visit from our own Tess Pfeifle.

Não se deixe enganar: David Grusch é mais um desinformante do Governo. Quantas vezes não já ouvimos essas alegações antes?

Por Cláudio Suenaga

O ex-oficial de Inteligência David Grusch foi apresentado à comunidade ufológica e ao entorpecido mundo em geral no último dia 5 de junho pelo site The Debrief, que é definido pelos seus fundadores Micah Hanks, Tim McMilan e MJ Banias como "um site de notícias que oferece um local público para reportagens confiáveis ​​sobre ciência, tecnologia e notícias de defesa, com foco na ciência e tecnologia de ponta de amanhã." A crença fundamental que proclamam é a de que "o mundo de amanhã é construído sobre o progresso e a imaginação de hoje."

Imediatamente, como é de praxe, grande parte da comunidade ufológica, incluindo os seus membros mais proeminentes e toda a mídia mainstream, recebeu as alegações com entusiasmo e asreplicou com exagero, destacando as credenciais desse membro da comunidade de inteligência envolvido com um programa secreto do governo para recuperar espaçonaves alienígenas acidentadas, em uma semelhança sinistra com campanhas recentes anteriores de desinformação bem documentadas do governo para promover e reforçar a crença no público de que estamos sendo invadidos por "inteligências alienígenas potencialmente hostis e perigosas". 

O premiado jornalista investigativo e escritor Ross Coulthart, autor de In Plain Sight: A fascinating investigation into UFOs and alien encounters from an award-winning journalist (New York, HarperCollins, 2021), entrevistou David Grusch na NewsNation, uma rede de televisão por assinatura americana de propriedade do Nexstar Media Group, que publicou ainda em seu site uma matéria bombástica no domingo, 11 de junho, assinada pelos jornalistas Andy Gipson, Miguel Sancho, Zoë Lake, Dana Leavitt e o próprio Ross Coulthart.

David Grusch em entrevista ao premiado jornalista investigativo Ross Coulthart nos estúdios da NewsNation.

Figuras de proa da mídia e auto assumidos entusiastas de OVNIs, como Matt Walsh, comentarista político apresentador do podcast The Matt Walsh Show e colunista do The Daily Wire, e Tucker Carlson, apresentador de televisão, comentador e analista político, conhecido por ter apresentado o Tucker Carlson Tonight entre 2016 e 2023, prontamente legitimaram Grusch. Logo, o republicano Tim Burchett, membro da Câmara dos Representantes dos Estados Unidos, estava dizendo que o denunciante era "muito crível". O jornalista britânico Nick Pope, em entrevista ao The Guardian em 6 e 8 de junho, disse que, durante seu tempo no início dos anos 1990 investigando OVNIs para o Ministério da Defesa do Reino Unido, uma atribuição que ele jamais comprovou, "não viu nenhuma evidência concreta de artefatos ou materiais não humanos", mas esperava que as "muito significativas" alegações de Grusch conduzissem as investigações de OVNIs a uma conclusão. Tom Rogan, escrevendo no Washington Examinerem 12 de junho, estava cético em relação à extensão das alegações de Grusch, mas disse que elas deveriam ser mais investigadas e que, embora ele "não tenha sido capaz de confirmar", ele acredita que "o governo dos EUA está em posse de materiais relacionados a OVNIs de design exótico".  

Isso é o que a mídia mainstream mais faz. Se antigamente a regra do bom jornalismo era ser sempre do contra para favorecer a apuração da verdade, hoje é dar destaque ao que já vem pronto de fontes oficiais e agências noticiosas e a tudo que esteja enquadrado nos consensos político-científicos estabelecidos, bem como na cartilha politicamente correta da Agenda 2030. A mídia, assim como a maior parte das pessoas hoje, não acredita que alguém possa sinceramente ter posições destoantes sem ser ativamente maligno. Isso ocorre porque estamos usando óculos humanos que geralmente são quase impossíveis de tirar. A pura estranheza aqui não é de origem alienígena. É uma estranheza humana. Somos muito mais estranhos que os alienígenas.

O primeiro argumento daqueles que defendem "denunciantes" como Grusch, é que há evidências abundantes de encontros alienígenas que remontam há décadas. E, de fato, há evidências abundantes: evidências abundantes de que algumas pessoas dizem ter visto luzes assustadoras e criaturas assustadoras, da mesma forma que algumas pessoas disseram ter visto elfos, fadas, deuses, demônios e monstros ao longo da história. Na era científico-tecnológica em que vivemos, só o que soa razoavelmente verossímil e lógico para a imensa maioria é a figura do extraterrestre.

O Debrief, dizem seus fundadores e mantenedores, é um órgão independente, "autofinanciado" por eles mesmos quando de seu lançamento, em plena pandemia, no final de 2020, dedicado "a explorar e relatar os desenvolvimentos em ciência, defesa e inteligência, tecnologia de ponta e conhecimento que existe na periferia da compreensão humana". Embora centrado em questões de ciência, tecnologia e defesa, ou por isso mesmo, "Quando justificado, acreditamos também que fenômenos da natureza que abordam áreas onde os paradigmas científicos atualmente não se estendem também devem ser examinados e discutidos com integridade e rigor jornalístico."

Tal premissa, que deveria ser basilar, mas que por não ser a diferencia um tanto, se conspurca, no entanto, com outras tantas clichês e de cunho politicamente correto que a alinham com quase todos os demais órgãos da mídia mainstream, todos assumidamente a serviço da mesma agenda e comprometidos com os ideias de bilionários do Vale do Silício como Elon Musk, a quem citam e tomam como parâmetro. Destarte, o ato de "questionar" deles só vai até certo ponto e para nas fronteiras dos territórios que entendem como "não dignos" de serem explorados, bem como nos "consensos" que as grandes corporações políticas, científicas e empresarias estabeleceram e que não podem ser de nenhuma forma contestados, sob pena de banimento e cancelamento.

O Debriefentra no coro alarmista e apocalíptico da Agenda 2030 da ONU e chancela e ratifica engodos como o do aquecimento global e da Covid, bem como dá carta branca aos "senhores do mundo", os bilionários do Vale do Silício, para que nos salvem com sua tecnologia "milagrosa" da iminente catástrofe, senão vejamos:

"Entre elas estão as ameaças que incluem o potencial de eventos de extinção em massa resultantes do impacto de um asteroide ou alguma catástrofe semelhante. A mudança climática também é uma preocupação bem reconhecida entre os cientistas; e, como aprendemos em 2020, as preocupações com o surgimento de uma nova cepa de vírus, resultando em uma pandemia global, nunca mais podem ser ignoradas. O progresso tecnológico, quando realizado de forma ética e na promoção dos valores humanos, bem como com respeito e preocupação com toda a vida na Terra e nosso meio ambiente, pode trazer a promessa de mitigar tais ameaças."

Temos, portanto, motivos mais do que suficientes para questionar os que se dizem questionadores. Por que estão se valendo de todo seu aparato, prestígio e credibilidade para inculcar e reforçar na mente do público a crença e a certeza de que o governo há muito possui as provas da presença extraterrestre sem antes ao menos questionar por que o governo justamente de uns anos para cá e agora mais do que nunca, resolveu dar aval a um fenômeno antes marginal e liberar documentos e informações confidenciais e permitir e até encorajar a livre atuação de denunciantes? Por muito menos, Edward Snowden acabou caçado pelas agências de Inteligência e teve de buscar asilo, e Julian Assange acabou preso e hoje se encontra sob custódia da Polícia. Por que só Grusch desfruta do privilégio de dar entrevistas tranquilas à TV?

O fato é que esses insiders ou whistleblowers, sem apresentarem, como sempre, qualquer prova, respaldados apenas por seus altos cargos e postos, nos brindam com revelações as mais fantásticas, a confirmar muitas daquelas suspeitas construídas ao longo das décadas em cima do mito de Roswell, como se estivessem investidos em cumprir determinadas diretivas "patrióticas", enquanto se fingem de rebeldes, idealistas e iconoclastas para maior efeito de convencimento.

Jornalistas tão gabaritados, assumidamente capazes de examinar o papel da tecnologia que vai da convencional à disruptiva, como se arvoram, não podem ser tão ingênuos a ponto de deixar passar batido tais implicâncias. Das duas uma: ou as desconhecem mesmo, e neste caso são ineptos, ou fingem desconhecer, e neste caso são desonestos e estão a serviço daqueles que deveriam estar questionando, e que são justamente o que estão mudando o nosso modo de vida e moldado, para muito pior, o nosso futuro.

Ademais, todas as alegações que o Debrief alardeia como grandes novidades nada têm de novo. Quantas vezes já não ouvimos tudo isso antes? Que o governo americano resgatou naves, que fez engenharia reversa nelas, que conserva metamateriais, etc.  É o remake do remake, o déjà vu, requentando com novos termos e linguajar pretensamente sofisticados, politicamente corretos e afetadamente acadêmicos. Centenas de vezes antes já ouvimos alegados infiltrados e denunciantes tão ou mais gabaritados com alegações tanto quanto ou até mais extraordinárias. Mas como dizia Carl Sagan, "Alegações extraordinárias exigem provas extraordinárias". Será que desta vez, pelo menos, mostraram alguma prova? Não, como sempre, nenhuma. Bastaria que apresentassem apenas uma e não seria necessário tanto palavreado.

O Debrief diz aspirar "estudar descobertas que contornam o limite do desconhecido e desenvolvimentos que podem, com sorte e perseverança, ajudar a nos preparar para os desafios que o mundo de amanhã trará". Se seu comprometimento com os que estão por trás da sinistra agenda de controle total é tão profundo como essas "reportagens" parecem indicar, o desafio maior será fazer com que o mundo tenha um amanhã.

DE COMO O FENÔMENO OVNI VEM SENDO USADO NO GRANDE ENGODO DA FALSA INVASÃO EXTRATERRESTRE

Pela característica intrínseca em camuflar seus segredos sob densas camadas de desinformações, lendas, engodos e mentiras, o Fenômeno OVNI tem servido como um dos mais eficientes instrumentos de poder e de controle social por parte das esferas mais altas e reservadas das agências de inteligência, sociedades secretas e fundações milionárias que nas últimas décadas cresceram até alcançarem dimensões exponenciais e adquirirem uma ascendência maior do que em qualquer outra época da história.

Foi o que vimos mais uma vez no início deste ano com a onda de "abatimentos de OVNIs" anunciados pelos governos dos EUA e do Canadá, que ao mesmo tempo em que acusaram a China de invadirem o seu "inexpugnável" espaço aéreo com simplórios "balões de espionagem", procuraram sugerir que não só estavam caçando autênticas naves espaciais de outros planetas, como possuíam uma tecnologia assaz capaz de derrubá-las…

E é o que estamos vendo agora com as "bombásticas" revelações feitas pelo The Debrief de que o governo dos EUA de fato detém metamateriais em seu poder, avalizadas por altos membros de órgãos militares e de inteligência.

Se a mídia mainstream em geral e até o Vaticano seguem na mesma toada, não significa que está havendo uma "abertura" ou uma "aceitação" do assunto OVNI por parte deles, mas antes uma complacência pelo comprometimento mútuo com a nefanda agenda da Elite oculta.

E se por complacência ou ignorância que vai até as raias da obstinação, os ufólogos consideram que o poder se circunscreve apenas àquelas partes mais visíveis dos setores governamentais e dos interesses políticos mais imediatos e patentes em seus choques sucessivos, antagonismos e equilíbrios temporários, e assim saúdam como um avanço a "abertura" e o "reconhecimento" oficial quanto ao assunto, é porque desconhecem que os altos poderes só liberam as informações que consideram mais apropriadas para gerar precisamente aqueles efeitos que desejam, ou seja, para fazer as pessoas acreditarem exatamente naquilo que eles querem que acreditem.

Portanto, não pode haver algo mais ingênuo, tolo e pueril do que confiar nas versões e atitudes oficiais das altas esferas, mesmas que estas pareçam favoráveis à primeira vista. Destarte, deixo aqui um apelo a todos os colegas ufólogos, lembrando que também sou um, para ficarem atentos e não permitirem que sejam usados como "inocentes úteis" no Projeto Grande Engodo que já está fase avançada de implementação.

O público e os ufólogos, como sempre, infelizmente, vem engolindo tudo bovinamente, aceitando placidamente o aumento das despesas militares e por conseguinte do poderio dos órgãos de Inteligência e do Estado para nos proteger contra uma iminente falsa invasão alienígena, totalmente alheios que estão ao fato simples e óbvio de que os governos só divulgam o que querem e da forma que querem para atingir determinados intentos de sua Agenda. A degradação da inteligência, o decréscimo no QI e a estupidificação geral das massas que a mídia mainstream, a indústria cultural e o sistema educacional vêm promovendo há tempos, tem tudo a ver com isso.

DALLAS, TX - In a development as shocking as Jerry Jones wearing a sensible turtleneck, Dallas Cowboys fans have reportedly achieved a breakthrough in human cognition: they finally understand the concept of defense. This momentous occasion, which scientists are tentatively calling "The Miracle on Mansfield Street," has left the football world reeling and theologians scrambling to rewrite sacred texts. For decades, the mere mention of "defense" in a conversation with a Cowboys fan was met with blank stares, nervous coughs, and a desperate fumbling for the nearest Dak Prescott jersey. Their unwavering faith in explosive offense, fueled by a steady diet of highlight reels and misplaced optimism, often left the Cowboys' defensive line resembling a turnstile during a Black Friday sale. However, a recent shift in the collective consciousness of Cowboys Nation suggests a seismic change. Theories abound: did a rogue weather balloon carrying defensive schematics drift over AT&T Stadium? Did a rogue squirrel leave a chewed-up copy of "Zone Coverage for Dummies" in Jerry's office? Whatever the catalyst, the results are undeniable. "It all started with a dream," confessed longtime Cowboys fanatic, Hank Johnson, brandishing a pair of oversized foam fingers shaped suspiciously like defensive ends. "I saw Micah Parsons tackling, not celebrating on TikTok. It was... unsettling, yet strangely beautiful." Inspired by this nocturnal vision, Hank embarked on a quest for knowledge. He unearthed dusty VHS tapes featuring the legendary "Doomsday Defense," a mythical creature whispered about only by grizzled veterans. He even ventured into the forbidden section of the internet, a place where defensive statistics and advanced analytics resided. The transformation has been, well, transformative. Social media feeds, once a wasteland of Dak Prescott MVP campaigns and Dez Bryant highlight reels, are now littered with discussions of coverages, blitzes, and the virtues of a good three-man front. "We're learning all the fancy terms," explained young fan Billy Thompson, proudly reciting a list of defensive formations that would make Bill Belichick weep with pride. "We even know what a 'safety' does – it's not just a discount double-check anymore!" This newfound understanding has translated to the field as well. The once porous Cowboys defense now resembles a well-drilled militia, a stark contrast to their previous strategy of "pray Dak throws enough touchdowns to win." Quarterbacks who used to waltz through Dallas like tourists on the Riverwalk are now greeted by a wall of confusion and despair. Interceptions are being snatched from the air with the grace of a seasoned falconer, and tackles are happening with a frequency previously associated only with concession stand nacho consumption. The implications of this development are staggering. Experts predict the Cowboys will become an unstoppable force, their opponents bewildered by the sheer intellectual firepower unleashed on defense. Opposing quarterbacks, accustomed to a carefree playground, will now be forced to navigate a labyrinth of coverages and blitzes – a fate worse than facing a horde of angry cheerleaders wielding pom-poms. Of course, there are concerns. Will the Cowboys' offense, long used to outpacing opponents in a high-scoring shootout, be able to adapt to the new, slightly less exciting reality of low-scoring defensive slugfests? Will Jerry Jones' fragile ego handle the newfound focus on defense, or will he demand a giant inflatable Micah Parsons for the sidelines? Only time will tell. But one thing is certain: the world has entered a new era. An era where Dallas Cowboys fans not only understand defense, but perhaps even... appreciate it? Now that's a truly terrifying thought. Fans, join the movement! Share your newfound defensive wisdom with the world. Post memes, explain the offside rule to your bewildered friends, and let's make the world a more defensively aware place. Together, we can build

a future where every football fan, regardless of team allegiance, can appreciate the beauty of a well-executed tackle. Just remember, with great defensive knowledge comes great responsibility. Use your power wisely.
