    It is impressive, sure, but the video doesn't really capture the reality. A subsun, or sun candle, forms directly underneath the sun in a region of frosty air, so is generally very small and appears relatively distant from the observer. Those...

    Your source didn't reproduce accurately Spielberg's statement, which is as follows (at the min. 2:46 timestamp mark on the video below): "I don't have any information exclusive to me that all of you here should if you read about this and see...

    My article published today about the locally available UFO imagery and how it compares with the reports from Ariel School. https://www.skeptic.org.uk/2026/03/the-influence-of-sci-fi-media-on-zimbabwes-ariel-school-ufo-sightings/ An additional...

    I did use the word "adjacent" when mentioning these other award shindigs, but the reality is it's all an incestuous entertainment industry. The American Academy has long awarded non-American productions like Hamlet ('48), A Man For All Seasons...

    In a recent interview, Spielberg said he doesn't have insider info about alien visitation and it's just his belief based on the wave of reporting and documentaries following Elizondo and Grusch. "All of you here should read about this and see...

    no, they're not and yet the Oscars and the BAFTA awards are centered on their respective countries and audiences If we're discussing that there are several relevant awards for apples, I'd like to keep the oranges out of the discussion. Apples...

    Sorry, rant ensuing: I don't know, as I've gotten older, more cynical and I guess more grumpy, I don't mind seeing some of these overblown, self-important bits of "art" flop hard. It's an industry based on image and make-believe run by...

    It’s like sections of the podcast industry constantly talking to each other on their respective shows about topics they don’t want them talking about.

    This is the Like and Subscribe presidency, so yeah he's just going for Internet badass vibes. In many cases the performance doesn't translate to action (hence the TACO thing) but the path from words to actions is short when you've purged...

    The Iranians already succeeded with popular revolt - in 1979, against the Pahlavi Shahs, for Ayatollah Khomeini. That was a well-prepared popular revolt, with a clear direction, with the population knowing who they were trying to bring in to...

    Inviting a lot of speculation now, is that a good idea, Mick? I am not going to enjoy this forum much more if we keep on discussing politics over interesting debunk stuff. Just my opinion. A little more explanatory: for me this forum is a kinda...

    This was part of his opening statement. He was looking down (presumably reading from script) while speaking. I can't imagine he writes his own speeches, but I would hope he at least reads them before going to the podium. I wonder if he even...

    Given the competence of the Trumpist lawyers, I'm sure that one of them could attempt to perform a defence along the lines of "as soon as the lay down their arms they are no longer 'enemies', so of course quarter will be granted to those...

    It potentially would be if he ever planned to travel to/through countries that were. The likelihood of vacation being an issue I do not know. Depends on how bad things get on his watch, I suppose. Saying "no quarter" at a press conference will...
