    It’s crazy how mainstream ufo talk has become.

    I speculated two things in the 90s to a group of friends and family, I think possibly during the same conversation. I predicted both these things to occur by the time we were in our 60s.

    • We’d be legally able to sit on our porch and smoke a joint.
    • The US Gov would reveal conclusive evidence of extraterrestrial activity verified to have occurred at some point in the history of our planet, after a period of normalizing it through popular media.

    I was only really serious about the first one, but the second comment was triggered by what I perceived as a spate of UFO movies and shows that spiked within a few years around the time of Independence Day.

    So far I’ve got 50% accuracy, and still a few years to go, so I’ve got my fingers crossed. 😁👽
