    Alien Bodies at a Mexican UAP Hearing

    There should be no surprise in his appearance in yet another aliens story, that's his wheelhouse. An MB search for Burchett shows we've been aware of his acritical woo-pushing for at least three years. Most often mentioned because of his role in the Grusch/House Oversight Committee drama.

    November 13 2024 Congress hearings

    "BUFO" it is. Come to think of it, that label might even work for both those topics. Or maybe "BIFO"? :D

    Drones over New Jersey?

    I hate when the kids forget to pickup their drones and just leave them on the sidewalk. :rolleyes: Source: https://x.com/rawsalerts/status/1868765879619514757

    Claim: Pareidolia is bias

    Not sure if I don't know what "equally possible" means, or I don't know what "far-fetched" means... Or perhaps the woo merchants just HOPE I don't... (Sighs internally.)

    Skywatcher Part I: The Journey Begins

    ...https://www.1st.shop/ -- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chris_Ramsay In particular as those links point to a webshop carrying some woo-adjacent (e.g. ingo swann references) gimmickry that refer back to the "Area52" youtube channel your vid is from and which seems chock full of the usual...

    Mars Rover captured something interesting [rock]

    Adding a screenshot from the color Gigapan image with added shadow line notations. I am not sure how this all lines up in this 2 dimensional image to the true three dimensional space. If the pill shaped rock is not casting the shadow, there most be another object BEHIND it casting that shadow...

    Claim: Pareidolia is bias

    I guess a certain Swiss woo merchan independent thinker could claim that he just suffers from pareidolia more than most.

    Need Debunking: A recent article purporting to find evidence of nanobots in Pfizer and Moderna vaccines

    ...to be tried out on a test audience first.) The part about this whole tale I found most curious was how the misunderstandings in the paranoid woo dovetail so closely with many of the misunderstandings of the religiously-based no-abiogenesis brigade: Reality, to biologists: amphiphilic lipids...

    Travis Walton case: Crew boss confesses hoax

    ...locations for the purpose of finding crop circles (maybe they still do), but post 1992 or thereabouts it wouldn't get much attention outside of woo enthusiasts (and others who just enjoyed the designs). This is from the current website of The Barge Inn, Honeystreet, "Local Attractions"...

    Jake Barber tells Ross Coulthart about non-human technology - The "Egg"

    ...4 meters wide, it could weigh around 50,000 kgs assuming it's as dense as water (using this calculator) That's still pretty heavy, so if it 20 feet long then it's probably not a dense object. I'm pleasantly surprised on how negatively it's been received, even on some of the more woo...

    Telepathy Tapes presentation taped and posted to X and YT

    ...Whatcha gonna do - take her non-existent licence away? I suspect the parents consent, and there's nothing that can be done. Alas, parents have the right to surround their children with woo, we've been doing it for millennia and it doesn't look like we'll be seeing that as a problem any time soon.

    Elizondo's Implants

    I'm sorta in that camp as well, but to be as fair as possible to him, I think we are all familiar with folks who buy into one bit of woo, then maybe another, then hit that slippery slope and head into the depths of the rabbit hole and buy into tons of it. Maybe that's where he is?

    The Secret of Skinwalker Ranch S03E09 - UAP Disappearing "into Thin Air" [satellite going behind cloud/entering Earth's shadow]

    Source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SuBeUOGh-kc She is way less "eager to display" it than the blond woo dude is to show us his glasses. She's got shortish sleeves, and that's about all the effort she's gone to. By tying her hair back, she is apparently just as eager to show us her...

    Skinwalker Ranch - Laser Beam Stops and Starts in Mid Air

    Seeing more than one frame would be useful, certainly. Alas, it not appearing in other frames could be used to add further woo to any claims. As could it appearing in other frames. That's the wonder of woo. For me, the strongest counterargument against a rolling shutter artefact is how the...

    The Final Experiment

    ...And in the last couple of years LLMs have made it much easier to generate nutty new material with scripts, images and now video. Plus you can get extra screen time just reacting to someone else's content. With luck, you'll get people subscribing to your Patreon and paying you to generate woo.

    Discussion of Metabunk's Politeness Policy

    why would link that link? from that link: woo-woo a propaganda word used by ignorant pseudo-intellectuals who think they are smarter, while they are absorbing all the programming from the mainstream media, government etc, that reject anything that they cannot understand or isn't studied enough...

    Skinwalker Ranch - Laser Beam Stops and Starts in Mid Air

    Images from CMOS sensors use a BAYER filter (not like high-end prism video cameras), and what we see is interpolated with generally 4 adjacent pixels : G U R G The interpolation may create very strange side effects (for instance when filming a red/blue texture with a color change near the...

    Discussion of Metabunk's Politeness Policy

    Urban dictionary: woo-woo Woo-woo is a slang term used to describe those who believe in phenomena that lacks substantiated evidence to prove the claim of the phenomena. It can also refer to the explanations for the specific phenomena itself. It also describes the method a person uses to...

    Welcome Thread - New Members Post Here

    Hiya! If you have a moment and any interest, I'd be curious hat you make of the recent thread on tridactyl mummies from South America. Much of the thread hinged on interpreting medical scans, which you might be better at than the rest of us! (I realize that reading this sort of imagery may...
