Still not convinced all the "drone" sightings all of a sudden isn't Covid related brain damage. I know two folks in my life who are adamant they've seen something and frankly, 'ambiguous bright lights that move out of sight real fast when I focused on it' sounds like the sort of thing people experience when they've had a concussion.

Social panics don't need Covid to spur themselves on tbh. People are great at recognizing patterns where there are none.

Also probably wouldn't hurt.

Friends I'm talking about are nowhere near Jersey, very offline, and one of them was talking about it before it was even a thing.

The last time there were a lot of UFO spottings was during the Cold War, when it was likely actually the US testing spy planes or other flying machines. Given that they're desperately trying to start Cold War II, that could be it.

some fuckhead congressperson or senator said that Iran has a drone carrier off the east coast so, yea, you're probably right

Could be starlink or some other satellite. They’re bright, quick, and can just kinda disappear in the sky.
