We really need to start this part of the site off with some Patty vids for those new to Cryptozology.
So this is the most recent stabilized HD footage of Patty I could find.
What's people's opinion on Patty after all these years? Was it just a guy in an ape suit or was it an unkown homind?

Is sea salt tasting a bit less salty these days |

We get our salt off the east coast of Japan, and I really think their is something wrong with the sea salt for the last several years. I'm really concerned about all the tiny ( don't know the science word for it ) tiny particles of plastic that we might be digesting by using this sea salt.
What do you folks think?

Tap myself…Trains… |

I tap myself with trains that connect the world with our body and minds. Long ago the beautiful mind loved kissing and taping trains. She was so unique in her way to connect souls.
Apart from love she found connections from minds to make new minds. Some people call that mine over matter. She calls it minds of love.
16 years ago the track had a disconnect, she ended up moving her mind into the field of sight. Her green glowing eyes made beautiful contact with new lands, lands of time.
Her mind drifted into worlds of the unknown love she once had back on earth. She is now bracing time for this new world. Her thoughts were off the chart.
As she turned around to change time, he once again showed up at her doorstep…
The moral of this it that the world changes all the time but there is always someone for everyone!

Did A United Monarchy of Israel Actually Exist? |

The Historicity of The Kingdom of Israel
Quote:The study does not purport to prove that the United Monarchy of the Israelites described in the Bible was a historical reality. But it shows that the kingdom’s existence and involvement in major construction at Gezer cannot be ruled out, the authors say.
While some archaeologists praised the team’s efforts, others dismissed the study as irrelevant.
Much research in the last four decades has shown that ancient remains scattered around Israel and once attributed to David and Solomon were in fact dated to about a century after the supposed time of their reign – meaning there was no concrete evidence supporting the historicity of their kingdom.
However, some archaeologists have pushed back against this paradigm, unearthing in recent years impressive 10th century B.C.E. remains at different sites, particularly in central and southern Israel, and averring that these may be evidence that David and Solomon’s kingdom did exist after all.
That has always been the crux of the debate.
Archaeological evidence is finding it harder to validate the biblical claims. Settlements have always been dated to the 9th and 8th Century BCE leading up to the Assyrian siege around 701 BCE.
On the Temple Mount there is not much between the archaeological layers between The Canaanite Red Brick City, and the Assyrian layer.
It's called the "slum layer". It was inhabited during the 900s, but evidence of a greater and advance Kingdom have always been lacking.
Quote:
Yadin interpreted these standardized Iron Age structures as the hallmark of a strong, centralized state that stretched across the land. The archaeologist promptly assigned them to Solomon, based on the biblical verse that this king built Megiddo, Gezer and Hazor (1 Kings 9:15). The Bible doubles down on this claim specifically for Gezer, saying that Solomon rebuilt it after an unnamed pharaoh set it on fire, and then gifted it to a daughter he gave in marriage to the Israelite king (1 Kings 9:16).
Archaeotheology bugs me. Sometimes it seems they want really hard to validate the historicty of the dates. And this one has its doubters, but don't dismiss it as irrelevant after the carbon dating checks out..
Quote:Accordingly, Finkelstein and others have since assigned these structures to the Omride dynasty, which ruled over the northern Kingdom of Israel (as opposed to its smaller, southern neighbor, the Kingdom of Judah) in the first half of the ninth century B.C.E.
If the city gates were only built a century after the theoretical time of the purported United Monarchy of David and Solomon, then nothing was left to shore up the historicity of the United Monarchy. If David and Solomon did exist, they may have been merely local chieftains ruling over a tiny Jerusalem and little more, according to the scholars in this camp.
Naturally, the new dating evidence is getting dismissed by the mainstream opinion.
I often thought the Post-exilic writers of the Old Testament took some liberties, as the 2nd temple victors did a RETCON of history. Even Exodus was last edited in 3rd Century BCE.
So, Biblical Historicity has a lot of propaganda to sift through. I felt they overhyped David and Solomon to make themselves more significant than those renegades that split off from The Canaanite and created their own varient myth, and then found life hard doing so...
Interesting none the less.
There's a poll option, going to try that out..

Hi to everyone here. I hope this site takes off and grows. I can't offer much except membership and traffic but every little helps. That's the reason for this post really!
On ATS I just write little rhymes and make the odd comment. I'm sure I'm not a popular fellow there but it takes all sorts to build a community. I'll find a niche here somewhere!
About me.
I'm just an old guy with seven grandkids. I have a nineteen year old grandson living with me. He has been with me for over four years. It's been a long shift! I had to move home to take care of him. His mum couldn't cope.
I don't have a mobile phone as it made me too accessible and without it I have found some freedom. I just use the laptop and my landline.
I'm a guitar player. I write songs and stuff, that's how I ended up writing little rhymes on ATS.
Sorry about the uninteresting intro but I just wanted to post something on the site. I have a few little poems almost finished so I'll post them on here rather than on ATS. That's just a heads up lol.
If you got this far, thanks for reading!

She has written a very challenging book for mainstream theoretical physics.
https://pubs.aip.org/aapt/ajp/article/87...ics-Astray
And is in general more a critical person apparently but I totally like that.
Quote:The central strand of Lost in Math is an argument that (some) theoretical physicists and philosophers of science have lost the track of where science ends and philosophy begins. This is potentially damaging. This is not to say that physicists ought not value philosophy, do philosophy, or engage with philosophers. In fact, we theoretical physicists could use philosophers' help in thoroughly understanding the subtle boundary between philosophical assumptions, mathematics, and scientific reasoning at the foundations of physics. Hossenfelder argues that one mechanism by which (some) physicists' delusions developed is through the mathematical formalization of aesthetic ideals over the past several decades. Particular ideals of beauty have become entrenched and even elevated in some circles to constituting solid scientific criteria—able to justify rather than merely to guide scientific work, even in the absence of observational evidence.
Basically: if the maths is beautiful enough your theory will be accepted even if it is per se unscientific because you can't confirm or disprove it via experiments.

HORIZON – A LOVE STORY (I write one page stories) |

HORIZON – A LOVE STORY
Have you ever looked out, over a landscape or body of water, losing yourself in the horizon? Does it draw you to it like a gateway to a magical realm? Perhaps it is the thoughts and feelings of other lost souls calling you to join them.
He stood there, on the shore, just on the rise of the sand where the waves of the ocean reached up, but didn’t yet touch at this time of day.
He wore rumpled cargo shorts, and a plaid shirt, only partially buttoned, letting the lower part of his shirt flap in the breeze. He was well built and tan. His hair was brownish, but streaked by the sun – telling tales that he came out here often.
His gaze is transfixed on that far-away place at the edge of the world, where dreams meet lost dreams, along with dreams that could have been, but never became.
Is it coincidence that two damaged souls stand on the same shore, at the same time, a short distance apart, both gazing out at the same horizon?
She stood back a ways, very much aware of his manly presence, yet lost in her own thoughts of a life, well planned -- gone astray. She wonders if his and her thoughts, feelings, and pain will find each other, out there – out there, in the magic. She believes in the magic.
Does he feel it? Does he sense it? So many have stood, as he stands now, letting their emotions of love, fear, disappointment, and loneliness drift over time and space to the far off horizon.
They that came, before, experienced the magic in their time by its enchantment. Now it’s our time, we must recognize it, embrace it, learn from it, use it in moving forward - - to keep the magic alive.
I shift my gaze from the horizon to where he stands. My fear of rejection attempts to climb its way to the surface, but the magic is stronger. I take a step forward in his direction. I still feel hesitant, but I keep going.
I pick up a shell from the sand. As I am a writer, I always carry writing material with me. I take out a sharpie. I write my name and phone number on the shell.
I’m now standing beside him, both of us focused on the horizon.
I say to him: “Do you think they’re out there, our thoughts, our desires, our pain? Do you think they find each other in the magic of the horizon?
He turns, looks soulfully into my eyes, as I intently meet his.
I reach down taking hold of his hand, placing the shell into it.
Looking back into his eyes I say: “Believe in the magic”.
Then I turn and walk away, believing with all my heart, the magic will follow.

Fun With Nostradamus |

For this thread I will demonstrating the you can apply a Nostradamus prophecy as broadly as a horoscope.
Regardless of why he truly wrote them. Whether inquisition commentary or not, a prophet he is not. Makes me want to stare at bowl of water and fake channel a bunch of vague bullshit too.
So I picked some of the most used ones, and a few others, to tear apart.
Quote:From the depths of the West of Europe, a young child will be born of poor people, he who by his tongue will seduce a great troop; his fame will increase towards the realm of the East.
Oh my God it's totally Hister, I mean Hitler! I feel calling Eastern Austria Western Europe is like calling Memphis Western US.
And tons of silver tongue leaders were born poor. It's part of the whole will to power thing that propels them. But Mussolini fits this WAY better.
And pretty much an leader born poor, West of Fucking, Austria (actual former City name, also testing T/C and censors) could be proclaimed this seducer.
Quote:The sudden death of the leading man will cause change, making another man leader. Soon, but too late, the young man will attain high office. By land and sea, he will be feared.
There are literally two examples from the USA in a span of 20 years. Not to mention all the other times a war leader died.
But Both Truman and Johnson fit this quatrain. Truman maybe a bit more than Johnson.
Obviously nostradamus couldn't envision The Enola Gay either. I guess his bowl of water never saw air combat.
Maybe a little...
Quote:The scourges passed the world shrinks,
For a long time peace and populated lands:
One will travel safely by air, land, sea and wave,
Then the wars stirred up anew.
What is wave travel and how is that different than sea?
Still, when can you not apply this, assuming it is learned what the hell wave travel is. Are we teleporting, and why didn't we write it down if you saw a fantastic new way of travel, Mr. Nostradamus?
Quote:They will think they have seen the Sun at night
When they will see the pig half-man:
Noise, song, battle, fighting in the sky perceived,
And one will hear brute beasts talking.
Manbearpig? Is it actually a prophecy.
This one must have been one of the more absinthe induced ones because the hell is he on about?
Obviously, he foresaw Operation Bluebeam!
I want to try to apply this but obviously dude was tripping.
Quote:At forty-five degrees, the sky will burn. Fire to approach the great new city; in an instant, a great scattered flame will leap up, when one will want to get evidence from the Normans.
Oh noes! 9/11 happened in Central France, where the goddamn Normans actually were.
The Great new city is Paris in Mr. Prophet's mind, which is actually at 45° latitude. It was a middle age destination city. A real hub for immigrants. It exploded in his time.
But no, he saw towers burning in New York...
Perhaps is was ANY of the middle aged European city within a degree of 45 that had a fire once.
The Great fire of... And literally insert almost ANY middle aged or older European city. Presto Inferno.
Much better than New York at 41° latitude.

If I have the means to go there next year ( I intend to cycle ) I've been searching about Thailand and just started with one video of learning the Thai language. As a cyclist, there are many foreigners that have toured Thailand on a bicycle and of course I would like to be one also. Cycling and camping is not only my hobby, but in all honesty, it is my current life style.
Here is one of many videos about Thailand.

Top 5 Cover-ups? |

- Replies (2)

Let's get this going.
I'm not so much of a damn skeptic I think every cover story is true. There have been tons over the years that have actually happened.
What are your top 5 cover-ups of all time, including now declassified and proven ones.
Here are mine, with thoughts.
5. 1952 Washington DC UFO Incident.
Was there where they came up with swamp gas reflecting off Venus. If that happened today it wouldn't be so easy to gaslight everyone about.
Aliens or soviets?
Just don't give me radar anomalies and optical illusions.
4. Roswell.
No one cares that much about a high altitude spy balloon, or whatever they say it was.
I have always wondered how ANYONE could confuse a mylar balloon with a craft. Even a suspended spy payload would be recognizable as jumbled camera and audio recording parts.
3. Covid's Origin
It took the former host of THE MOST LIBERAL SHOW EVER to finally get everyone to Blame China.
China bugs me. Deployed biological warfare. Spayed Wuhan, and tried to capitalize on a global pandemic while propping up their Ponzi growth economy.
The CCP seems to be missing a "C" in their acronym.
2. TWA Flight 800
It was 1996. I remember watching the news. Everyone had the same eyewitness account. Rocket then explosion. But they assured me it was a frayed wire in the center fuel tank.
Always seemed like covering the Navy's ass.
1. Kennedy
Lee Harvey and the guy on the bridge. Several stationed if the shot from behind failed to do it.
I speculate he either pissedoff the Federal Reserve or The Military Industrial Complex. Kennedy wasn't on board with Vietnam and The Fed, two really good reasons to make Eisenhower's warning prophetic.

This will be the next big thing in the conspiracy community. Watch as we become the same thing that we talk about.
Oh, I guess this is an introduction thread. Ok, then I have been studying the whole Shadow Person Phenomena since the mid 1990s. I have thousands of cases to pull from when it comes to discussing sightings. No, I won't just throw out cases unless I can get the people involved to give me permission to openly discuss specifics or post their pictures. I will discuss evidence and basic stories that are pulled from those cases I have on file.
As an example, if a person tells me that a shadow person has been roaming around their house and has moved thing about. I'll discuss how shadow people have interacted with items within a home. My personal approach to shadow people is that they do in fact exists, but not every case is a genuine shadow person. I also don't just toss around nonsense about demons or other evil spirts.
I also have been a field investigator for MUFON (Mutual UFO Network) for just over a decade. I no longer am part of that organization. I also have a library full of occult and odd history books (like a literal library in my home. I turned a den into a library complete with a Dewey Decimal card catalog)
I'm also into geo-politics, so even though I won't get into my politics over global events, I might be prone into discussing world events from a different perspective then some. Guess that's about it.

I love the seasons here. Right now the peak of the tree change is over and the leafs are all over the ground. I love burning them, the smell is amazing.
I work out for 1.5 hours every night. Watching out for space invaders at the gym is important. My work I will keep private!
