It's just the best that this is happening in New Jersey.

Not just New Jersey, it’s spreading along the coast: https://www.thepoke.com/2024/12/16/this-republican-politician-took-aim-at-joe-biden-over-the-drones-security-threat-and-its-the-most-glorious-self-own-youll-see-all-year/

grifters using the latest "crisis" to grift more. unethical politicians following suit. cats and dogs living together... mass hysteria!

I think they are trying to be funny and missed the audience by a mile and have now to play the tune the dumb ones play.

I saw a moon-sized orb hovering in the sky over my house last night. It moved slowly through the sky, and it was gone in the morning. Aliens? Angels? Russian spy drones? I guess we'll never know.

how did we get so stupid, so quickly.

Americans always were. You just didn't have the internet to see how many. If you think evolution and dinosaurs are real, that already makes you smarter than over half the population.

This post of his is just a desperate "don't forget about me"

Can‘t believe I actually used to like him!
Sultana
Me too! Went to see his standup once and it was sooooooooooooo bad
cytherians
I'm sick of his slick schtick of trying to come off like a smart & witty hipster, when all he knows is how to play with tropes & buzzwords. People should know his game by now. He's just a long haired & better presented version of Andy Dick.
RaynWisp
He's the worst thing to drug addicts since drugs.

Amazing how quickly he unravelled and lost all sense of that witty repertoire after those sex abuse allegations were dug up.

Not even that, as by posters above, it is just a zoomed in out-of-focus star/planet.

Wow. He’s about to go full flat earther. They use out of focus stars as “proof” nasa is lying to us about space
SpeedBeetle
It's out of focus, you dingalings.
GoddamnitClown
It's a star. It's what stars (or any point sources) look like when they're distorted by the atmosphere and out of focus.
I've combined two videos from this person's youtube to illustrate. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EYdvjNoJXCg
It's a star. It's what they've always looked like. You don't need to know that, most people don't, it's cool that you didn't. But "unexplainable plasma UFO" and "angel" cannot be our go-to guesses. Please, humanity.
meergull
No, haven't you heard the guy? It's an angel /jk
cytherians
It's not an accident. There are many people out there who salivate at the opportunity to meddle with events, particularly those ripe for conspiracies. There are so many falsified videos out there, with their submitters "innocently" asking "WTH is this thing I recorded?".
Then sensationalism addicted lunatics like Russell Brand get in on it. He is a Loki. He lives for crap like this in almost any genre you can imagine.
Zahnradfee
So cool! ... That's why we have "adaptive optics" in terrestrial telescopes now. It's a mechanism that subtly deforms the mirror in such a way that it compensates for the atmospherical distortion.
I love how Sirius goes through all the colours of the rainbow. It's because he is a very large, hot star with a spectrum that peaks so far towards the blue that it looks white to us (and contains all the colours in big enough magnitudes).
Eschscholtzia
thank you, i would have said their lens was just dirty

Maybe my phone is dirty, but I can't read the second name in the image there. Can someone type it out for me?

The fools shrodingers cognitive reasoning: It could be either a miraculous religious thing or it could be a miraculous technological thing but never the simplest realistic scientific/tech thing.
chammey
When I look through my eyes and then my 50x monocular, Solar system planets get bigger, but I haven't seen any star get bigger beyond infinitesimal dot. I thought the stars are so far away they're just dots, even to Hubble. Wow
chammey
Oh, shit, I missed the over-focus part. So the stars do be very far.
cousteau
"Plasma flying object" is quite accurate though. But it's neither "unexplainable" nor "unidentified".
StTriniansHeadBoy
UFO is fine, but UAP is the preferred term now because UFO makes the assumptions that what you’re seeing is a) flying and b) an object. So Unidentified Arial Phenomenon really just means that it’s in the sky and you don’t know what it is, which fits perfectly for a star that you don’t know is a star.
Revicus
That makes a tremendous amount of sense. Thank you. I wasn't clear on the distinction.
Daraanel
An 'Unidentified Arial Phenomonon' would be Microsoft Word screwing up a document. You're after 'aerial' :)

> The amount of energy needed to refute bullshit is an order of magnitude bigger than that needed to produce it.

cytherians
"Firehose of lies" technique.
cousteau
That's ridiculous. An order of magnitude means around 10 times more. Bullshit is incredibly easy to produce, and refuting things for stubborn people is almost impossible.
AlexSomething
Ok, but Sirius need to calm the fuck down.

Had an ex who went down a similar rabbit hole and was showing me a shit quality youtube video with "two suns in the sky." Reader, it wasn't two suns. It was The Sun and its reflection in an open window at an angle.

Whoah, a low-res image of the moon... scary.
thoushaltnotpass
unfocused star. 50% chance it was taken with a Panasonic FZ-500, bridge camera with insane zoom and shitty autofocus that can't focus on stars and beloved by flat earthers.

Moon? I would have guessed it was the morning star,. especially considering: https://earthsky.org/astronomy-essentials/venus-after-sunset-greatest-elongation/
nobodyspecial995
Yep, this is what happens when you zoom in with a low quality camera on a star. They get heavily defracted by the atmosphere, and end up looking like this.

I had no idea there were that many uses for the term “morning star”. I’m entertained by the fact that both Jesus and Lucifer are on the list! 😂

as someone who has snuff fantasies about being publicly hanged, I'm as excited as can be. I even have the *perfect* dress picked out for my eventual execution.

And I never really got into Pokemon. I know I'm a weirdo, but I missed the bus on that one. What can you do
