Ufo hotspots around the world

[hunkygreenbean]

Intro and my Webcomic

Hello!

Call me Majik or Hunky (she/they/he). I like Warhammer 40k, politics, reading, ufology, and making art.

I have combined two of these passions into one (politics and art) in my Webcomic Lightworkers, which you can read for free at my side blog @lightworkersofficial right here on Tumblr! If you like lesbians with swords, alien conspiracies, and/or darker media, you should go check it out! (TW: first chapter contains mentions/depictions of suicide. I post regular TW updates before certain scenes as well).

My asks are always open! I'll try to post some art here maybe.

DNI if you are a pedo/MAP, zoo, TERF, Zionist, or Trump supporter/apologist.

This manuscript represents Part One of an updated and expanded version of Jenny Randles’ classic work UFO Study (originally published in 1981); this particular work including the text relevant to UFO investigation. When first presented this book presented a unique attempt to provide a concise guide to many required skills and techniques. It was especially noteworthy in being written from a largely British perspective, in a form accessible to a general audience. This important work has unfortunately been too long out of print; hence, the decision was made to issue this amended PDF edition of UFO Study (split into two sections to facilitate downloading). In both parts much of the original text has been retained, but updated and expanded to fully reflect the realities - and also the opportunities - of 21" century ufology. It is hoped the act of making this work freely available will aid the proliferation of “best practice” within British UFO investigation.

I sometimes think I should create an entire ufology blog to just ramble about the finer details of folklore surrounding aliens but idk if I would consistently keep it updated.

[inaweofmytism]

Update: the hat man may have been the leader coordinating attacks by the shadow people that set the field of ufology back by at least a dozen years

They are talking about the Hat Man on the History channel.

2022 Reading Log, pt 29

My life has been tough lately, so I do what makes me happy. Read books about monsters.

141. The Old Snatchengrabber’s Big Book of Child Eating Monsters by Mike Rosen. This is not beloved British children’s author Mike Rosen, or asshole Republican pundit Mike Rosen. This is a different one. This book is a collection of folkloric bogeymen, illustrated in a cartoony style. Most of these are European, but some from around the world do appear. Some liberties have been taken with the monsters at hand, mostly in the art—the yara-ma-wa-yho, for example, is an amorphous blob instead of a hairless monkey-frog, and Krampus is both female and thicc. Brief, but pleasant.

142. The United States of Cryptids by J. W. Ocker. I’ve quite enjoyed Ocker’s Season of the Witch and Cursed Objects, and I quite enjoyed this book as well. The book is as much about crypto-tourism as it is about actual cryptozoology. As such, it takes a pretty broad view of what a cryptid is, including various UFOlogical entities, as well as folkloric entities like the wendigo or Navajo shapeshifters, if they have places to visit or sell merchandise for. It’s also pretty respectful, acknowledging that those aforementioned Navajo shapeshifters, for example, are taboo to a lot of Navajo people still. Ocker has clearly done his homework, and acknowledges that creatures like the Ozark Howler are modern hoaxes, as well as suggesting some very obscure monsters that are ripe for becoming tourist attractions (such as the Derry Fairy, the Prime Hook Swamp Creature and the Kodiak Dinosaur).

143. The Enemies of Rome by Stephen Kershaw. In some ways, this is the best whirlwind tour of Roman history I could imagine, covering events from the mythical foundation of Rome to the last of the Western emperors. It is most interested in what the Romans thought of the various people they fought and usually defeated, and how Romans built their own identity as separate from “barbarian”, even though they themselves were barbarians from the point of view of Greek culture, which they wholeheartedly appropriated. A lot of time is spent in the late Republic era, which I appreciated. Too often, books about Rome written for a popular audience skip straight from the Punic Wars to Julius Caesar. One thing I didn’t like, however, was its constant use of modern neologisms. “Fake news”, for example, shows up more than five times before I stopped counting. It was cute once, but rapidly became irritating.

144. Flying Snakes and Griffin Claws by Adrienne Mayor. This is a collection of short articles written for various magazines and websites by Mayor, collected and occasionally updated. Most of them are on the subject of weird ephemera of the classical world, often times animal themed. Examples include several articles on tourism in Greece during Roman times, a history of Roman perfumes, the use of weasels as household mousers in the Classical world, and of course writings on Greek and Roman monsters. The book includes her original article proposing that the griffin is based on Protoceratops fossils, and the argument is pretty much just “I went looking for a real animal that looks like a griffin, because I couldn’t imagine that it was a symbolic hybrid, and this is what I found”.  In the foreword, she refers to that essay as “embarrassing”, although whether because she has repudiated that (very poorly supported) hypothesis or merely because of its fannish tone addressed to Jack Horner, remains unsaid. I can’t say I recommend this book, but I didn’t consider reading it a complete waste of time.

145. Eaters of the Dead by Kevin J Wetmore Jr. If I could describe this book in one word, it would be “sloppy”. It is a survey of folklore and mythology related to cannibals and man-eating monsters. It seems, at least at first, to be arguing for a hypothesis that all cannibal monsters are embodiments of fears of survival cannibalism, but seems to give up on that thesis half way through. Possibly because the author realizes it’s a non-starter. For example, he claims that ghouls represent a fear of survival cannibalism in the Arabian Desert, before revealing that modern authors consider the corpse-eating and grave-robbing aspect of ghouls to be a Western appropriation in gothic literature, as opposed to an authentic folkloric belief. It also pairs some ideas in very odd ways and acts as if they make sense, like discussing both feeding the dead to vultures (as the Zoroastrians and Tibetans do) and Polyphemus in the Odyssey in the same chapter. It also seems weird to write a book about man-eating monsters, spend an entire chapter on ghouls, but dismiss zombies in two paragraphs. There’s some interesting ideas in here, and some good sources, but I think I would rather read those sources than this book (and in some cases, I have!).

a fan? were you famous?

" 'were?' "

> Jack gives you a mocking chuckle. He's laughing at you.

" I still am!... kinda. Back on earth. Well- probably lost a couple followers since I haven't been able to update shit on my blog..."

"Ufology's a small circle,but I'm pretty well known there"

[aut2imagineart]

Made this a couple of weeks ago but felt like posting it now to maintain some activity.  This is a collection of sketches of Ufology inspired aliens.  Even though I have a set of OCs and a story idea inspired by these aliens I haven’t been as interested in the topic of Ufology or alien abduction as of late.  It did perk up a bit with the Pentagon giving some credibility to three military captured ufo videos and doing and doing a serious investigation into them.  That gave me the motivation to draw these guys, with some detail updates from a Facebook friend who researches this stuff.  Fun fact, the Grey alien on the top left is inspired by a group encounter that was described to me.  I’m currently working on my children’s picture book so my ufology inspired story and characters (with the rest of my characters and story ideas) have to be in the back pocket for now.

As always comments and critiques are welcome.

[ufosightingsfootage]

Take a look at this post… 'Astronomer Films Huge Mothership - Also Ruins Are Seen On The Moon'.

Here's an update to this story. The more that time goes by, the more important things come up and the Moon is a extraordinary place brimming with life so there's always something new to update you about it. The Moon, it's a great place for UFO enthusiast's to actually see UFOs for themselves.

[touch-tone-touch-tone]

Him

Venomous gets a flyer on his door, he decides to check it out

Warnings: Cryptozoology and ufology, aliens, abductions, talk about dissections, and passing out

Venomous had been so confused by the flyer on his door, until he looked into the number on the flyer.

'John Boxman- stay at home scientist'

Weirdest job he'd ever read in a phone book.

But when he went to the library to look the man up in the local records, he had found articles upon articles in the microfiche with the man simply referred to as 'Boxman' and his escapades ranged from helping the local PTA install a new score board at the high schools football field to being arrested for 'public disturbances.' The weren't any pictures of the man in any of the articles but one had shown a picture of a few kids. 'Local man takes in orphan after parents found dead in woods.'

That was an odd read. He had expected it to a hard read but instead it was two pages of, in all honesty, laughing at 'the Boxman family' and it's 'weird' habits.

He had never expected the flyer asking for 'Evidence' and 'updates on sightings'.

His neighbours had told him to ignore the flyer unless he wanted a bad time. They didn't say why but they where all firm on one thing. 'That Boxman is a nut.'

“Sir, that's $3.84.”

He looked up at the girl at the checkout counter.

“Oh, uh, sorry.” He pulled out a 5 and handed it over. The girl passed over a bag of goods.

“Thank you for shopping at Gar's Boo-dega. Have a spook-tastic day.” The girl sighed.

He nodded and walked out of the store. He looked up at the over cast sky. If he walked his normal way home he could move on with his day and Fink wouldn't yell about her soda being warm. But he could take a trip down the next road over and just see what this 'Stay at Home Scientist' had to offer.

He turned a road early for his house and walked down the street. He adjusted his hat as the wind tried to bring it off his head. Not today forces of air current, not today.

He looked at a door and sighed. He walked to it and knocked.

There was quiet, and everything was still. After a minute he knocked again. Suddenly there was yelling, crashing, and banging cacophony of sound and the door opened.

A young teen boy with an eye patch looked up at him and sighed.

“Daddy! There is a weirdo here to play!” The kid yelled into the house.

“Give me a minute!”

Crashes, bangs, hissing, screaming noises.

What was he walking into?

“Well come in.” The kid huffed. He stepped in, it looked like a normal enough home. A bit messy, okay more than a bit messy, and defiantly home to an amount of children. He looked around and saw on the walls a smattering of pictures and newspaper clippings. It was all he'd seen in the microfiche and more.

Suddenly a door burst open, the smell of smoke filled the room as a small man in a trench coat threw himself out of the door, smoke billowing behind him and coughing loudly.

“Hello!” The man called, pulling at his coat to adjust it. Half his face was covered in strikingly teal hair and one of his hands was gloved. His hair also had a strange glow as it rested over his face. “What brings you to our humble home?”

He gulped. This was a bad idea.

“I saw the flyer on my door yesterday, I-”

Suddenly his was grabbed by the arm and being pulled towards the smokey door way.

“Mind the stairs.”

That wasn't all he could mind as the man dragged him down the stairs. He could hear beeping and thudding. And the distinct sound of a washing machine with the blips of, was that a heart monitor? As he went further down the stars he could confirm that was a heart monitor. It was a heart monitor attached to some weird blob of a plant, he wasn't going to ask. He wasn't going to ask about any of the machines or any of the weird things they where attached to.

“So what brings you to my humble lab?” The man asked.

“I was just, curious about the flyer.”

The man laughed. He picked up a- was that a colander?

“Nothing to tell?” The man asked, he started to toss the colander between his hands.

“I just have, a passing interest in, space, and I just moved into town, so I was wondering about some of the things that happened around here. I've heard stories.”

The man lit up. “Just a passing interest?” The man raised an eye brow. “Or anything more?”

“Well, uh.”

“Put this on!” The man yelled. He held the colander at him.

“No, I uh, think I'll go.” He stood to leave but his coat was grabbed.

“No please, put this on! We have much to discuss!” The man pushed the colander on him.

“No I-”

He was pulled back to the work bench and his hat was grabbed. He dropped the bag of snacks and grabbed his hat.

“Come on, just for a few questions!” The man yelled.

“No!” He tried to back away but the man was strong. “Please! Let go of me!”

“Just a few question-”

His hat was pulled off. The man went quiet.

“CODE RED.” Suddenly the man had a spray bottle and squirted something in his face. He grabbed his hat and abandoned the bag. He put it on and started to leave.

Half was up the stairs the world started spinning, he tried to go faster but it was useless. At the top of the stairs he felt his legs go numb. He got to the front door and-

~~~~

“Darrell get him!”

“What the heck Dad!”

Boxman ran to the door and pulled the man in the large jacket and hat back inside, he looked around outside the door before closing it.

“We caught one! We caught one!”

Boxman scooped Darrell into a hug, picking the boy up and spinning him.

“Dad did you drug him!” Darrell screamed. Boxman put Darrell down and rolled the man over. He took the man's hat and glasses off.

“We caught one!”

“Dad is that-?”

“Darrell get my surgery tools!” Boxman picked the man up and started to carry him to the basement. “Then get yourself back to bed young man.”

~~~~hi

Boxman adjusted his gloves, he looked at the man on his table and smirked. He turned on his tape recorder.

“Subject is lilac, and tall and slender. His hair is black and his eyes are black.” Boxman paused the tape recorder. He walked to a camera and turned it on. He pulled the tape recorder out again.

“Video is on, the dissection should take-”

Boxman was cut off by sudden screaming.

The man on the table was writhing and screaming, pulling at his restraints.

Boxman picked up his spray bottle and walked closer slowly.

“LET ME GO! LET ME GO!” The man screamed.

“I'M NOT LETTING ONE OF YOUR KIND GO!” Boxman screamed back. He inched closer.

“WHAT DO YOU THINK I AM!” The man screamed back.

“YOU ARE ONE OF THEM!” Boxman held out the bottle as he inched closer.

“ONE OF WHAT!” The man caterwauled.

“ONE OF THEM!” Boxman yelled again.

The man pulled at his restraints. “I'M NOT!”

“PROVE IT!” Boxman yelled.

The man looked at Boxman, his eyes full of fear. He gulped.

“I was taken by them.”

Boxman looked at the man quietly, his bottle still extended.

“P-prove it.”

The man sighed and writhed a bit more before he sighed. “When I was a kid, the aliens, they took me and they experimented on me. That's why I'm purple.”

Boxman looked at him, he brought a hand trough his hair, pushing the mess back. The man at the table stared at Boxman as he revealed a glowing red eye that was surrounded by metal fused into his skin.

“Did It happen right away?” Boxman asked.

“No-”

“Did you see them?”

“No.”

Boxman lowered his bottle.

“I didn't either.” Boxman said quietly.

The man and Boxman looked at each other quietly.

“Can I have my shirt back?” The man asked.

“Oh- uh yeah!” Boxman walked to the side of the room and through the shirt across the room onto the man. The man looked at him. He pulled a hand against the tethers.

“Can I be let go? I won't run I promise.” The man said.

Boxman walked over and started undoing the tethers around the man's wrists.

“I'm Boxman, by the way.”

“I figured.” The man huffed as one of his wrists was freed. “My names, um, Venomous.”

“Sorry for, you know, abducting you.” Boxman coughed.

“Well, you know, yeah.” Venomous mumbled as he other arm was freed. He sat up and looked down the lens of a camera. “Y-”

“Oh! Sorry!” Boxman leaped to the camera and turned it off. It whirred as it clicked down and stopped recording.

“You where filming?” Venomous looked at Boxman, eyes wide.

“Well I had to document my prize dissection.” Boxman said casually.

Venomous' eyes went wide as he stared at Boxman.

“You where going to dissect me?” Venomous stumbled.

“Well, yeah.” Boxman said as he started to undo Venomous' feet from the tethers. “I'm sure you can understand why.”

“You don't just dissect your first specimen! You study them alive first!” Venomous hissed.

“Oh yeah what do you know about science?”

“I'm a professor of biology at the college!”

Boxman started to bounce a bit in excitement.

“A real man of science and a believer!” Boxman called, he released the last tether and clasped his hands together, still bouncing with excitement.

“Yes.” Venomous started to get off the table.

“Um, before you go,” Boxman kicked the floor a bit. “Could you stay for a little longer, in case they show up again?”

“How much longer?” Venomous started to squint at the man.

“The cops should be here any minute if someone saw me, you know, drag you inside.” Boxman mumbled.

Venomous sighed.

“It wasn't that obvious was it?”

“Well, you were on the porch.” Boxman tapped his fingers together quietly as he looked at the floor.

Venomous pinched the bridge of  his nose. “Fine.”

“Daddy!”

Boxman cursed to himself.

“Uh, get your coat and stuff back on.” Boxman turned around.

“WHAT!”

“IT'S THE COPS AGAIN!”

“I'LL BE UP IN A MINUTE!”

Boxman looked at Venomous who was buttoning his coat up. He already had his sunglasses on.

Venomous put his hat on and sighed.

Boxman grabbed Venomous' hand and puled him out of the room. He stopped at the bag that was still on the floor. Boxman picked it up and passed it to Venomous. Boxman stopped in front of a mirror and pulled his hair back over his eye. He adjusted his shirt and pulled his trench coat off a nail, putting it on and adjusting the collar to hid the last little pricks of metal showing around his ear. It was a perfect disguise.

“Your surgical gloves.” Venomous pointed out as Boxman started to walk to the stairs. Boxman pulled them off with his teeth, Venomous was intrigued by the avian looking hand that was under one, but that hand was quickly hid by a glove that was from his pocket. The two went up stairs.

“Officers, how do you do!” Boxman called.

“Cut the crabs, Boxman, we heard you knocked someone out again.” One huffed.

“Nonsense.” Boxman chirped. “No one is knocked out in this household today!”

“Do we have the search the house again? You don't have anything you shouldn't have, again?” The other cop added.

“Officers, I had a- uhm, low blood sugar fainting spell. Boxman just had to bring me back in to get me back awake.” Venomous said quickly.

“He matches the description.” The one cop said.

“Alright, that checks out.” The other confirmed.

“We better not get any other calls about you and the weirdos you bring into this town, you got that, John.” The first cop hissed.

Boxman gulped. “Yes sirs, absolutely no calls at all.”

“Good bye.” And the two left. Boxman took a deep breath.

“You couldn't have sprayed him harder, or sooner, huh.” Darrell snapped.

“Don't get pissy with me young man, now back to bed!” Boxman snapped back.

“I don't even feel sick any more!” Darrell yelled.

“You know that you could be contagious for up to a week with the flu!” Boxman snapped.

“You just don't want to deal with my excused absence so your waiting for the automatic excused absence to kick in!” Darrell hollered.

“Go to your room!” Boxman finally said firmly, Darrell whined but sulked off. Boxman shook his head and tapped a foot. “Kids.”

Venomous watched the man fume, then snap out of his fuming and into the nervousness he had in the basement.

“I really am sorry.” Boxman said with a sombre breath.

Venomous let out a pent up breath and held his temple for a minute. “Whatever, I'm leaving now.”

Venomous waked to the door and opened it, he looked back at Boxman, who was nervously ticking. This man had been so many things in microfiche and more in person.

“Maybe we can talk again, when I have time, I might stop by again.” Venomous said, he stepped through the door. Once Boxman saw the man through the window heading down the street, he started to jump up and down again in excitement.

“He believes! He believes!”
