They’re trying to make drones a thing- distraction, or why —dunno, but, it borders on occultism, Sasquatch.. Punch & Judy shows, “Soma for the masses” —it’s so not interesting …
I’m in NJ and it’s in every convo now. One of my friends saw one on the way over to mine last night. I don’t know what to think but was a bit freaked when I saw one outside my 12th floor window a few weeks ago.
I was at a holiday party in LA with one guy who has tuned out all news since the election. He’s from New Jersey but hadn’t heard of the drones. Everyone started yelling at him.
NJ’s Governor’s office and Air National Guard have still failed to respond to my extremely reasonable, combat-proven offer to provide anti-drone sticks to their forces at $1,000 per stick (patent pending).
At the party I went to in Vermont last night, we talked about which food was gluten free, where the drinks were, and then played ping pong and hula hooped.
No one around the rural area I live in in SWPA, but lots of people annoying the local farmers by running around in the winter fields flying and crashing them everywhere, lol. During the day, haven't seen any at night here.
Yup and it sucks having those stupid pickups and SUVs parked along the other side of the border from Zero Avenue. I just want to ride my bike in peace, I'm not trying to import terrorism. You guys already have enough of that provided domestically.
We had the drones last summer. It turned out to be insurance companies spying on our roofs and landscaping so they could cancel our policies. Also the electric company checking their wiring. We had big fires a few years back so both drone sources had their evil reasons.
I have lived in only 2 houses in the last 50 years. Orion has been right in front of me as I walked from my car to my house in both places. I consider it to be one of my oldest and closest friends. TF is WRONG with people?
Maybe. Are you in the drone region? I am in Phila burbs. Fighter plans just flew over to perform at Eagles games and almost immediately people were on the internet thinking it had to do with the drones.
Not concerned. I just assume it’s Elon doing something stupid and or dangerous that’s really gonna make us mad in a few months. But for right now? Meh.
As a person who normally excels in critical thinking — nope. They disable other drones that go near them; like fall out of the sky. That's either tech we haven't seen before, or theater. It could be the latter, but I think it's fine to feel bewilderment for the possibility of the former.
The most bewildering aspect is that they are bright and seem to cycle through colors. I can't think of a purpose for the military suddenly unveiling technology like this unless the light is a dependency. Thinking about why light is a dependency just sends me to Bummerville. Hopefully theater.
Canadian channels are starting to run the stupid story. As someone who flies a tiny drone for fun away from people if this results in even dumber restrictions on drones I'm going to be pretty bothered.
Always great when the info system is "trying to make a thing". They should be telling what few viewers they have that they "deserve better" and that they very well might be "f'd". 😠
Yes. But being flown by who and why? I am not remotely a conspiracy theorist, and I imagine those questions are easy enough to answer, but so far they pointedly have not been. It’s odd and will remain odd until it’s explained. You can read plenty of credible reporting about the situation.
Here's a good (skeptical) piece which offers a "confidential US aerial testing" (but they are not talking about it) hypothesis (for at least some supposed drone sightings). To me that makes the most sense, and is probably "fine," but also it would be nice to know!
It did not come up at the party I was at tonight in Phoenix. But then again, my backyard karaoke rendition of Great Balls of Fire was kinda the hit of the party.

Theory.
Party before last had a heavy ceo discussion but the most recent had no theme

We did however discuss, purely in a theoretical and recreational sense of course, the best kayaking and backpacking routes into British Columbia.
The Welles broadcast wasn’t a prank, it was just people hearing a broadcast and thinking it was something it wasn’t.
with better drones
