No longer ringing in the ears....

A couple months ago I started hearing a ringing in my ears. Now it has evolved to sounding like Cicadas singing non-stop.

I am surprised that I haven't seen anyone post about this yet (I could have missed it) but the connection to the drones seems very plausible

Disclaimer: I am not claiming that any of these speculations are definitive or factual! These are simply a series of observations that seem to have a plausible connection!

There was some information going around that the drones were HPGe (here is some info about them if you are curious) nuclear detector drones that came from a twitter post by a guy named JerseyFutures. He claimed to be an RN engineer, and also stated (without any sources) that the DoD had recently purchased a large number of these drones. Again, he did not provide any sources. Some people were suggesting he was a controlled op, which certainly could be the case, and his post did not offer much explanation for some of the other stranger things people have been seeing (drones coming out of water, the objects reaching mach speeds, etc), but either way, I sort of breezed past it.

I did not think about it again until today when I came across an article from September that talks about how Microsoft contracted Constellation Energy - who had purchased unit 1 of Three Mile Island in 1999 - to turn the reactor back on to power their AI data centers. The article is a pretty cursory look at the deal, but it has me thinking about JerseyFutures twitter post.

Obviously Three Mile Island is not exactly right next door to NJ where the majority of the UFO/drones are being spotted, but if you look at a map, it is damn near due east of Three Mile Island, and I did see some reports of sightings out in PA (including a close friend who has personally seen some out there in the Philly area).

Has anyone made this connection yet? Could the two things be linked?

The Will of God

Something tells me if NHI is here they may want us off these phones. Regardless if it's aliens, if something is happening in our skies, we all have eyeballs, we don't need the phones. If this is the scale that me and others believe it to be, then we won't need Apple or Google or other toxic tools to see it or ~feel ~ it. I think this is a near perfect storm.

If aliens dropped out of the sky today (not saying I necessarily believe that is going to happen), the way social media and these apps have rotted our brains, there would still be a significant portion of the population screaming “Al!” and “Deep State!”

If the collective consciousness is rising, the powers at be are ultimately powerless already, we just have to recognize the shift that has already begun. If you want to leave your head in the sand, by all means, but take this as a warning. Something is happening. I feel it as l'm sure plenty other folks feel it.

I have had many paranormal and unexplainable experiences in my life, none of which I’ve ever cared much to brag about, because ultimately I believe humans experiences supernatural events everyday—the universe is inherently magic and a spark of the Source grows inside all living things. But in no way am I claiming to be a ‘canary in the coal mine.’

However, this feels different than anything I’ve felt before. There is something currently unexplainable being experienced by a multitude of people across the planet. And I think there in lies the difference, the sheer and shared magnitude of this ongoing event. Historically, the unexplained, especially in regard to our skies, has resulted in humans turning on each other.

In the end, it's all God's will and we're just his little creatures living on a blue rock, hurtling through the cosmos of space and time.

So be good to each other, and go with love!

A New Idea about Drones

Hi. So, let me start by saying that I think the most likely answer to the drone issue that's been popping up is the most cynical and mundane: This is almost certainly a military exercise, akin to the Oklahoma City sonic boom tests. But what if NHI are involved, but not in the way we might think? If these ARE involved with NHI, these symbols and lights in the sky might not be meant for the average civilian to understand but for the military men.

New technology is almost certainly being deployed above American ground to see how it fares. In the most cynical views, this could simply be an attempt to "normalize" military drones above our soil. The federal agencies are almost certainly lying about it, know exactly what it is, and know it's ours. I know people are saying that they could be searching for something, I don't believe this. If this was the case, I don't think the FBI would waste so much as a second on getting people to report the drones. It'd be a waste of valuable manpower to have average people report your own activities to yourself. It's baseless speculation based on fear, saying "wouldn't it be scary IF ..."

So, with the boring stuff out of the way, let's talk about something more exciting and spectacular. These drones don't exhibit any of the logic bending effects that are the general telltale sign of NHI involvements like impossible maneuvers. However, I think this still might concern them. Say you're a military general, a high ranking guy, with tons of intel. These drones aren't Russian because they're tied up in wars. They're not Chinese because you'd be able to track China's movements from the west coast to the east. Then let's say you talk to your contractor friends. You look at all their factory assembly line certification and see that yup, they've only made drones that you can trace from factory to consumer.

So, you're left with a conundrum. They're not ours, they're not the enemies, and they look and act and are built exactly ike drones but they're completely mysterious. They're not doing anything threatening aside from loitering but you, as a potential aggressive warmonger, have to confront that there's a very mysterious military power doing a show of force right in front of you that you can't stop, perhaps saying "if you're thinking about taking aggressive actions, sit in the discomfort of knowing how powerless you are to this." I don't think it's a coincidence this coincides with the Trump election, his golf ground, and US military bases.

It's just a fun little theory, though.

Five Potential Explanations for the Mass Mystery Drone Sightings. Which is the most believable ? (they are all wild..) 1: Advesaries (China or Russia) 2: US Operations (Secret Military Mission) 3: Truly Unindentifieds (NHI, Aliens etc,) 4: Projections (No Physical Craft) 5: Psyop/Narrative Control.

[SERIOUS] Orbs. Have Our Eyes and Lived Experience Betrayed Us in the Fog of War?

What are these?

I just want to interject something into this discussion that I have seen over the course of these NJ events unfolding because my opinion has been changed by others who have dedicated their time to providing copious amounts of evidence to back up their claims.

The objects in question in many of these sightings where you can tell it's a plane on video, in other words, they are fixed wing and have flashing lights, I never put stock in past them possibly being "drones" or the other likely explanation that everyone hates - planes.

However, the objects that look like orbs, I was curious to understand thinking they couldn't be planes given I've never seen a plane that looks like a solid orb of light with my own eyes that wasn't white.

The key phrases here are "solid orb of light", "with my own eyes", and "that wasn't white" because when you record a plane at night with a phone, it can, and in many cases apparently does look like a solid orb of light and doesn't even have to produce a color associated with the lights on the plane. What has been confusing me is the color. An orange/yellow or blue orb is a plane? "No way, planes don't even have orange or blue lights on them," I said.

I've never seen evidence of that until this all started unfolding, because I've never pointed my phone at a plane at night, because again, with my eyes, they are planes. Why would I point my camera at it?

However, this link (the picture on this post is taken from it) shows with very solid proof that the objects in the video are planes, even though they look like solid orange orbs. It's got elevation data, flight tracker evidence, and even weather conditions of the cloud height so we can confirm that the planes on the flight tracker most likely aren't below the clouds even though they are coming in for landing.

Yes, in my opinion, given solid evidence, some of these orbs are being mis-identified as planes.

Unfortunately, given this evidence, to me, I haven't seen one video of an orb that is not likely a plane given none of them are displaying anything abnormal in their maneuvering with the exception of this one, and even that one could have prosaic explanations as it doesn't meet all “five observables.”

Now, in regards to what the people are reporting in NJ that is freaking everyone out, I have no idea what is truly going in the grand scheme of things. This post is more specifically about the "orbs" and how my initial confoundment was cleared up enough for me to start to see through the "fog of war" in all of this even though we aren’t out of the jungle quite yet.

My point in this post is that I confirmed through an open mind that what I thought a plane should look like on digital video doesn't always look that way and that my lived experience isn't accurate when comparing seeing something through my eyes and the "eyes" of a cell phone.

Cryptid Sighting? Fresno Nightcrawler/Nightstrider. Please Help.

Let me start this off by stating the obligatory “Throw away account”

I wanted to come on here and share my story. Until last night, I never believed in anything “Cryptid” and I feel like today the entire world is different and terrifying and I don’t know how to feel better about it.

I have a house in a pretty populated area in Michigan. There isn’t a ton of woods but there’s a very small patch of about four acres right behind my property. Last night around 9pm, I was taking my dogs out and heard leaves crunching in the woods in front of me. At first, I thought it was just a deer since we have a few of those around. I continued to hear leaves crunching and looked up because usually the deer freeze when we go out, except this didn’t freeze and it definitely wasn’t a deer. I didn’t know what I was looking at, even though I could see it so clear with our porch light on and it was only about 20 feet away from me. It was white, 4ish feet tall, and all I could see were legs.

I took the dogs inside and went back out to look because for some reason, I didn’t feel afraid. I just needed to understand what I was looking at. I got closer and it continued to slowly walk between my property line and the woods, until it slowly turned into the woods and walked away. I tried to think rationally and convince myself it was a deer, but I could see the entire thing and there was no deer to be found, I know what I saw.

I went inside and told my husband I saw a strange looking white thing that looked like an “n” and after looking it up and seeing drawings and pictures online, I am completely positive I saw a frenso night crawler.

From what I can see online they’re harmless and people even think they’re cute, but I do not feel safe anymore. How can I feel better about this? Yesterday, cryptids, monsters, and everything scary were just stories… and today it’s real and I’m dealing with it horribly. I am genuinely so scared.

I don’t want to live in this house anymore and I just want to feel safe. Just looking for answers, help, anything anyone can offer.

Chirality, Left Handed DNA, and how it could end life on earth.

It's finally happened, scientists have created left-handed or mirror image building blocks for life. All of life (DNA) on earth is right-handed. It has been theorized for many years that left-handed life would be viable and it looks like we are on the cusp. If this synthetic form life were to become self replicating it could replicate without end since right handed enzymes would struggle or be unable to break down mirror-image biomolecules.
Leading scientists warn against developing ‘mirror-image’ bacteria

Also, there is a great SciFi Series technothriller by Daniel Suarez, the Daemon Series, and in the book Influx features left-handed human life.

Richard Dolan indicates he thinks it’s more likely this is an intentional operation directed toward the public than the covert actions of a state actor, search for nuclear material, or manifestation of NHI presence.

Feel like there has been a massive disinfo firehose campaign happening these last few days with the "drones are just planes" narrative

A few days ago social media was full of people talking and speculating about the drones and sharing videos, now search "drones" in any site and it's a wasteland of people making the same jokes over and over, like obvious pictures of stars and planes saying "look at these drones!"

This all reads like a very effective disinfo campaign to me, a "firehose of bullshit", much like what was pushed to ridicule ufo believers in the 60's. It associates the subject with all manner of crankery, disincentives people from trusting their own eyes, and allows people to feel smug and condescending over "those idiots" mistaking planes and stars for drones

I've spent a lot of time in Jersey and the tri state area, and I find it really hard to believe this all started with some mistaken planes. There is air traffic overhead in that area constantly.

Idk man it's just wild to see it play out in real time, in just the span of a few days the drones have gone from a mystery everyone is discussing to an object of popular ridicule. But something is going on

Remember that 4chan post about underwater UAP’s?

With all these drone sightings, it’s hard to not think back to that 4chan post from about a year ago about the alleged whistleblower who worked for the US government, claiming that their is a mothership under the water that sends drones out of the ocean to survey the United States.

https://www.scribd.com/document/691000955/4chan-ufo

Hopefully this is allowed to be posted (it was not allowed on r/ufo for some reason.)

Drone(s) in SATX

i thought it was a star but it started to move around, i suspected a place or helicopter but it was dead silent. i also went to check like every 10 minutes and a red orb closer to the ground tends to stay around the moon then drift off and come back. i thought it was also a star but clouds started to pass and it was in front of them

A lot of misinformation is coming our way

As these UAP are in the sky. Many governments are at least a little worried even if it does eventually disappear. Right now they are going for the classic mass hysteria excuse, the one almost as much as a classic as the false memory one. It is a good one as both these phenomenon exist and it makes the general populace choose it over anything paranormal due to "what is more likely beings from another world or hysteria.". The thing is that is not all. It seems now they are shooting for naturalist explanations now. Usually they promote pseudoscience like ORCH OR and slap "quantum" over something to give the veneer of an explanation as laymen don't know how this stuff works. Right now they are claims the orbs are "plasmoids" like we with planes satelites and all this technology wouldn't know about these oh so common and completely natural plasma orbs that we somehow cannot defeat with modern military equipment. And also they are sentient somehow? A complete farce by any biologist as for any non-paranormal intelligence has very strict rules on how one acquires sentient behavior. But must people do not have that understanding. This is just the beginning it'll get worse if these UAP and perhaps more continue. Expect more pseudoscience defending Naturalism. Also expect religious explanations to keep atleast religious control over the population. Mostly Christianity since this is a western country. They'll try to prove they are demons or angels rather than the inspirations for angels and demons.
