  • Did you see the X-Files reboot? There’s unironically a full plot irelavant scene showcasing the Ford™ Explorer™'s advanced side bumper cameras, another one that’s about the Remote Unlock™ feature in the Ford™ EcoConnect™ App™ that Mulder uses to recover the keys he locked in their Ford™ Focus™, and of course we can’t forget the knock off Fast and Furious extended car chase scene where Mulder, driving the Ford™ Mustang™ completely outmatches the Totally Not A Charger Missing Its Badges™ in both straight line speed and handling



  • I just have trouble believing that the probably thousands of people both government and private involved in such programs that no doubt exist across every major power on earth (unless for whatever reason UFOs choose to only fly around and crash into the continental US) have all managed to stay quiet about something of this magnitude for decades (or damn near 100 years if his claim of it starting in the 1930s is to be believed)

    Not to mention that, simultaneously, the government(s) is powerful enough to successfully suppress this information for a hundred years, while some how also failing to keep somebody from testifying about it in a publicly televised congressional hearing








  • I wish they would stop calling standard capacity rifle magazines “high capacity” to try to play them up as being in some way unusual

    10 rounds isn’t even really standard for pistols, basically every full size pistol comes with a magazine larger than that (for reference, the most common US police duty pistols, the Glock 19 and 22, come from the factory with 15 round magazines), smaller than that and you’re getting into compacts that are meant to be more easily concealable (which itself has its own risk)

    I’m fine with restrictions that make sense, but trying to say that full size pistols (with magazines >10 rounds) are “high capacity” and “not commonly used for self defense” is just patently false
