My wife is very superstitious and I have never believed in ghosts or anything like that. Aliens, ghosts, magic, religions, totally confident that they aren’t real. When she told me she heard a weird voice calling her name one night I was incredibly skeptical and told her she was definitely dreaming because we live nowhere near anybody and it was -30 that night.
I used to think (intelligent/hyper-advanced) extraterrestrial life was far-fetched, but despite being very skeptical by nature, I've recently changed my tune after deep diving into the subject of UAP.
My article is very throughly cited from valid sources. I'm not saying aliens are responsible for the UAP we've witnessed in our atmosphere, but I am inclined to admit it seems like a feasible explanation for the crafts that were confirmed by our government being witnessed all over the world, beginning in 1947.
I know from past experience that many users will not follow that link, so I figured I'd share some important highlights to demonstrate that I'm not a crazy conspiracy theorist.
Here are snippets from the Twining Memo which specified that: "The phenomenon reported is something real and not visionary or fictitious.”
Here's the 1948 "See Something, Say Something" memo of Bavaria, Germany regarding "flying discs."
In May 1948 the Office of Military Government for Bavaria, Germany, issued instructions for reporting sightings of “flying discs.” These instructions were issued as a result of requirements from higher headquarters in Germany and in the United States. They were the result of the flying saucer phenomena that began in 1947. [32]
It's been confirmed since 2017 that the U.S. government had a secret program devoted to the surveillance and study of UAP, called the Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program (AATIP). [1]
The existence of UAP as real objects in our atmosphere has been confirmed by the U.S. government. The Pentagon's Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI) was mandated to produce a report on UAP, and stated in their report that:
"Most of the UAP reported probably do represent physical objects given that a majority of UAP were registered across multiple sensors, to include radar, infrared, electro-optical, weapon seekers, and visual observation.… UAP clearly pose a safety of flight issue and may pose a challenge to U.S. national security.
Safety concerns primarily center on aviators contending with an increasingly cluttered air
domain. UAP would also represent a national security challenge if they are foreign adversary
collection platforms or provide evidence a potential adversary has developed either a
breakthrough or disruptive technology. [11]"
Of the 510 total UAP reports studied by ODNI, 171 remained "uncharacterized and unattributed," and “some of these uncharacterized UAP appear to have demonstrated unusual flight characteristics or performance capabilities, and require further analysis." [11] Not only has the US government confirmed that UAP exist, they have admitted that they pose a serious safety risk to our pilots; both commercial and military.
Furthermore, these crafts which appear to be exhibiting disruptive/breakthrough technology in comparison to our currently most advanced (publicly disclosed) conventional aircraft, were demonstrating these same feats over 65 years ago. I find it harder to believe we had such a significant breakthrough back in 1947, rather than tech originating from some non-human intelligence.
In my article, I have linked previously classified correspondence in which the Air Force and other government agencies all confirmed with each other that the crafts in our atmosphere, starting in 1947, were not the product of any secret U.S. programs. The recommendation was to attempt to recreate these crafts, which is where USAF Project 1794 comes into play.
It is important to note that the craft attempting to be designed here was not capable of achieving the feats of the “flying saucers” that were being witnessed all around the world at that time.
Project 1794 also offers proof of the U.S. government's ability to maintain classified information. I have seen the idiotic talking point parroted around that "The U.S. government couldn't keep something like UFOs from the public all those years." Why not?? USAF Project 1794 unequivocally refutes that argument. It was kept secret until it was declassified and sent to the National Archives. [31]
TL;DR: Don't be so quick to discount the possible existence of non-human intelligence..
Edit: I always wonder if the people blanket downvoting assume these are fake documents, or if it's just blatant confirmation bias, avoidance, and denial? They are easily verifiable. If you're here just jumping to conclusions that this is false because it's easier to believe that, consider that you are failing to maintain intellectual integrity. That's not skepticism; it's bias and being too ignorant to even consider a possibility that is outside of your internalized beliefs. It's a demonstration of closed-mindedness. You're like the people from the movie Don't Look Up.
If you're so confident, read my blog post and challenge your preconceived beliefs.
Full disclaimer: I maybe read 10% of your comment.
Why is the government (all governments really) hiding it from us?
Why don't the aliens want to be seen? And why do we still observe them sometimes? Given their far far superior tech it shouldn't be hard for them to avoid being detected.
My wife and I were (emphasis on WERE) raised in very religious circles and as such we were "saving ourselves" for marriage at the beginning of our relationship. I was already drifting away from the religious world and thought this practice was dumb but loved her enough for innumerable other reasons that I would go through basically whatever to wait for her.
4 years into our 7 year dating relationship I was very stupid and ended up having a drunken three way with two of her best friends in a public park. Long story. My S.O. never found out from any of us.
One of the women contacted me nearly a decade later drunk and crying in order to confess that she had gotten pregnant from the encounter and had gotten an abortion with her parents help but never told anyone else.
My wife and I dated for 7 years and have been married for just short of 9 years. I moved us to the other side of the country for work to limit the possible interactions with her former friends, and encouraged her in many ways to have as large a friend group as possible in our new life to curtail the desire to reach out to our old group. New address and new phone numbers to make it more difficult for people to find us out of the blue. This will never see the light of day in our relationship.
I love my wife to the ends of the earth and back, this is the one thing (other than the consistency of my bowel movements) I will ever keep from her.
Your poor wife. A terrible husband and two terrible best friends. I hope she find someone who loves her enough not to sleep with her friends, or sleep with her husband.
My secret is that I know I'm actually the only real human, and everybody else are aliens posing as humans to study my behavior. That's why I purposefully make random decisions and actions from time to time, to throw them off.
I still have to figure out if I'm the last human alive, if every remaining human is being studied like me, or if there is a real human society somewhere.
You're not actual a "real human." You're an alien just like us, but we convinced you that you were human so we could study "human behavior". One behavior we've identified is paranoia.
Reminds me so much of a particular Philip K. Dick story. A solider's tour in Korea is over and returning home he notices that everything is fake. Artificial sweetener, instant coffee, faux leather shoes, hair styles, etc. He gets the idea that the aliens took over the US and setup a few fake burbs for the soldiers returning home, to isolate them and eventually pick them off one by one.
The people you've had sex with before you met your partner. Your body count. There's no reason to bring that up, it just invites drama once you're in a committed relationship
Snoring is often a sign of sleep apnea, which is easily treatable. Your wife should take a sleep test to see if she has it. Can take years off your life if left undiagnosed.
You could try to fix this from a very different angle by buying those strips for the nose against snoring. Those strips can temporarily unobstruct the air flow in the nose.
If you hold secrets and do not tell the whole thing (even the most disgusting stuff) to your SO... then it means that s/he is not that "special" anymore.
I mean, a relationship is never meant to be one-sided, but a "You and me" thing. And if you don't think like that, then you are doing it wrong.
"So you are telling me to just throw random disgusting stuff to my SO?"
No. Call him/her in particular, "Hey can we talk a bit?". It does wonders, that is all I can say about it.
t. Used to "play the tough guy" back in my early years. Took the "My life is an open book" route. Never looked back since then.
No, there is something called discretion. I don't for example have to tell my wife what I think of her father. She loves him, my kids love him, I think he is a great father-in-law there is zero need for me to comment on his body odor issues to her.
...and I said to call (whoever is troubling you) in particular and bring the issue up = discretion. And using your words well, you can even talk about someone's lack of hygiene/odor.
Not everything is relevant. Not everything that is truthful is kind. You seem to have this weird idea that you should prioritize your feelings in all things over your partners feelings, rather than understanding that something simply aren't a big deal.
I don't know too many--read: any--marriage and family therapists that would ever suggest you tell your SO every possible thing unless and until it became relevant. There are good reasons that people that practice radical honesty usually don't have many friends.
