      I’m 48 and just sit back in amazement on all that Sci fi shit growing up is all becoming a reality. Space Force, sending shit to Mars, robots taking over, fucking dudes shooting laser beams. I’m waiting for the aliens next and interstellar travel to kick off. Shits straight up a series of Star Trek now.

        According to Star Trek lore, we have one more super terrible world war to go before the first warp engine.

        This is not a good idea. The jetpack dude being exposed in the air is an easy target.

        Bro…we have aliens. Check out the nazca mummies….yes there most likely fakes. But they’re pretty good fakes. And that should count for something.

          The Mexican congress meeting thing? My quick understanding is that the guy who presented those mummies was a known bullshitter. If someone or something starts out as bullshit, then most likely, it’s bullshit all the way down. I think the aliens are here and have probably been here forever. We just can’t “see” them in our normal way of seeing stuff. All I know is if the aliens do come. I hope they yeet me off this shithole of a planet.

        They did have dudes flying around Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum with jetpacks in the 1967 super bowl. Anyone seeing that would have been pretty disappointed in the state of jetpacks 55 years later.

      Testing has been going on for a few years.

      In the UK there is even a rapid response medic for an area of mountains.

      The 2nd gen stuff could be pretty awesome/scary.
