This seems to be becoming an ongoing series of pondering topics that have made, are in the process of making, or may make, fundamental shifts in my thoughts about, and perspectives of, the world.
Thus, I attempt to be a living testimony to the quote, purportedly by John Maynard Keynes (which is in dispute; see here); regardless of who said it, it’s a good quote:
“When the facts change, I change my mind – what do you do, sir?”
Or, quoting Bill Whittle in one of his videos… “I want to be where the truth is”. Me too. And if that means I change my position, then based on evidence & logic, I do so after suitable reflection.
These essays are premised on the concept of a “thought splinter” – a concept that penetrates cognitive shields against dissonant information to fester until a person’s consciousness has to turn and address it. Previous entries:
Yes, there will be a Part 5 as I’m removing two topics from here so I can finish this one in something less than an eon.
CHEMTRAILS
For years I’ve heard people babbling about planes spraying chemicals into the atmosphere. I’m an engineer. I understand, intellectually, why jet engines flying at high altitudes have their hot steamy exhaust from burning hydrocarbons turn to clouds in trails. The physics & thermodynamics of this process are plain and simple. Thus, for decades, I’ve dismissed these chemtrail claims outright.
But then I started to see pictures of planes with tanks fitting into the passenger compartments. Now, these are not tanks on pallets being shipped hither and yon and merely strapped down – which I could understand for cargo purposes. I can even see some kind of bolt lagging for heavy tanks. But these are tanks that look to be permanently, hard point installed IMHO. I mean, really bolted down. Some appear to have plumbing attached, headed somewhere.
WTAF?
Now please understand: I don’t want this to be true. I’m not sitting on the couch in my foil hat salivating at every conspiracy theory that comes by, hoping the mothership takes me soon. I. Do. Not. Want. This. To. Be. True.
But assuming the photos are real, and the multiple eyewitness testimonies (including a couple of pilots!) are real… and citing Occam’s Razor for the pictures… I see the simplest explanation being that there is a significant effort to spray something into our atmosphere. What, possibly, could the innocent explanation be for planes with hard-plumbed tanks in plane cabins be?
Again, I want to be proven wrong. But things like the above, and this, and more below, are making it increasingly difficult to dismiss a priori:
Spanish Meteorological Association says Spain is being sprayed.
The Thought Splinter of tanks hard-point attached, sometimes with plumbing, piqued my curiosity… and my very reluctant conclusion, therefore, is this: there is a significant, global effort to spray the entire planet with something. Or several somethings.
Full disclosure. I have not watched more than a few minutes of the almost two-hour video, below. But something struck me watching it, as it struck me in general on this topic: the sheer HUBRIS to think that this can be controlled and fine-tuned without enormous ripple effects. The earth is a system of feedback loops within feedback loops interacting with multiple other, similarly nested, feedback loops. One cannot muck with one – the amount of sunlight coming down and hitting the surface – without staggering risk to the others. And certainly not do it without a long period of open debate in which the public, who will bear the brunt of any potential negative effects, having the final say.

ALIENS ARE HERE

Given the enormity of the universe, I would be floored if Earth was the only planet to have life on it. Heck, I’d be surprised if there weren’t other life islands even in our solar system (albeit not intelligent / technological life). Given that enormity and long sweep of time, I would be likewise astonished if we were the only intelligent and technological civilization to have arisen. But despite multiple claims at visitations and abductions, I’ve been highly skeptical of such claims. After all, citing paranormal skeptic and debunker, the late James Randi, “Extraordinary claims require extraordinary proof”.
My skepticism is being weakened. It started crumbling as the US Navy declassified videos of encounters with craft with beyond-human capabilities emerged. My skepticism got hit very hard when I heard a radio segment – I don’t recall what radio show it was, perhaps this Glenn Beck segment? – where one of these Navy whistleblowers recounted how a carrier had multiple radar traces from UAP encounters and, when it docked, a team came on board and confiscated the entire set of recordings of the event – to my understanding never to be seen again. Huh? Since when does that happen? Since then we’ve had multiple other reveals, like these:
UFO sightings: Canada’s defence minister briefed | CTV News
And based on this interview, video below, I bought his book. Full disclosure, I am reading but not yet finished, though his account of the USS Nimitz UAP encounter and aftermath is convincing and revealing; In Plain Sight: An investigation into UFOs and impossible science.
Taking his word at face value for he seems quite sincere, and his narration of things so far in the book don’t sound like someone foaming at the mouth crazy. He appears quite cogent. He’s also not rushing to validate what he wants to believe… right now I’m reading his very-skeptical discussion of the so-called “Art’s Parts” artifacts. Others are also moving towards this view (image from this link):
So the question, asked by Paul Joseph Watson, is why now?
And IMHO he’s right. The threat of alien invasion would absolutely be a rationalization for One World Government to unite us against the threat. Now I’ve read that the promised alien invasion will be staged; I’m not so sure given the above. But then, assuming the pre-WWII reports are correct (let alone some of the primitive art stuff that is, admittedly, very subjective), they’ve been here for a long time. If they truly wanted us dead, that would have been easy peasy by now.
So if they are here, and I’m far-far-far more open to that idea than even a few years ago… what do they want?
And an added thought. I’ve commented to friends on the Globalist push, after the “flier” election of Trump interrupted the plan, to rush to get back onto some kind of fixed schedule. Schedule for what? They’re rushed, they’re panicked, they’re push-push-pushing to get back to their milestone dates. Why? Are the alien colonists on the way and they need to have the earth depopulated & subjugated in time for their arrival?
And an interesting diversion about aliens being here:
The missing plan for alien first contact – BBC Future
Building off the above article… if aliens do, indeed, arrive, and by dint of their being provably sentient beings thus have civil rights, how do we grant them? And if sentience is the determining factor, what happens to agricultural farming if cows, sheep, chickens, etc., are shown to be sentient? Lab meat, anyone?
