12-9/19-2024 ufo sightings mostly in new jersey

I mean, there is no "UFO"s (as in, alien spacecraft). It just either (1) Drone Hobbyists, (2) Military drone test flights, (3) People mis-identifying manned-aircraft as drones.

12-10-2024 Briana Boston gets 15 years for saying you all are next over the phone to a health care company

That is to be expected. If she actually did what Luigi (allegedly) did, she'd gain much more media coverage

12-04-2024 uhc ceo killed everyone loves the killer, Luigi Mangione

Yea, Luigi got a whole 2 week news cycle, but now theres no new development so there's nothing for the media to talk about, they want more clicks, after all. Theres no new clicks to gain.

11-05-2024 trump wins the election, kamala stood for nothing the whole time

I mean... we are all talking about it. People are discussing this at work, school, or at home. Lemmy also talk about this a lot, just check the comments of every post that involves US politics.

02-24-2022 russia invades ukraine

I mean, we do have constant updates in !ukraine@sopuli.xyz

08-10-2019 epstein kills himself supposedly

Thats... not very recent, and almost every is sus of it, so much so, that it became a meme. Both left-wing and right-wing share the same sentinment, he was probably killed by someone.

Option (4): Venus. Apparently the planet Venus is a very common cause of UFO reports.
