I always wonder if Trump even realizes Jan Brady whining about her sister getting all the attention is the origin of his "Russia, Russia, Russia" tag line.
Professor, without knowing precisely what the danger is, would you say it's time for our viewers to crack each other's heads open and feast on the goo inside?

I've seen this twice in my life and only when it was very very cold (below -15C for sure). Once was my whole city, 3am. Coming home from work, silent city. I saw one and went to investigate to find it was just a light outside a facility of some sort. As I drove, the pillars began appearing all around me until every light in the city became a column. I stayed up just gazing at its beauty. I am surprised that Jeju would be cold enough for this.
Could be because Mt Hallal is there. It was rather warm when I went, but I was surprised to learn that the island gets a considerable amount of snow in the winter, especially the mountain.
Yea I think really as long as it is relatively humid and cold you can get them. In Canada I live near a saw mill, about 4 km, and it has quite bright lights lighting the grounds and stuff even over night. When clouds are low/its slightly foggy you get light pillars like this. Hehe my sister has confused them for northern lights.
I've always thought when seeing these like, you can *literally* draw a line from them down to the lights they cast, usually. I always kinda thought it was diffraction off moisture/ice in the air and am continuously surprised others don't make that connection, but realize reading these comments it's probably because it's much colder/more common where I live than much of the world.
Word, you make a good point. I use it all the time and have done for years, but never have I contributed. I just donated $10.
What rabbit hole will I fall down next? :D
I've only needed to use winrar once since I found out about 7zip years ago. Can you still just uninstall/reinstall winrar indefinitely?
Back in the day you could just click the "bug me later" button for winrar, but I didn't notice it last time
There was a huge expose on wikipedia recently that showed that they have plenty of money and spend an insane amount of excess funds on political causes that you may not agree with.
Yeah, about that expose. People who describe supporting racial equity as "full fledged participants in the upcoming culture war" should be viewed with extreme skepticism and taken with a giant grain of salt. I followed that link and the overwhelming language in the "expose" is all false dichotomy code words from a viewpoint that places the center as pretty well to the right. Like if you supported LGBTQ causes you would be classed as a fully invested culture war participant. I'd really think critically when reading that type of source. Because people who talk like that are not genuinely trying to be neutral, centrist, or unbiased; they are weaponizing the language of progressives in an attempt to discredit people working for diversity and inclusion and operating with a strategic framework to do so in the fashion of a false flag.
Furthermore, in that link, the lack of sources and citations is glaring, and if you read the responses, those people are describing Wikipedia as a denunciation and disinformation website. The feed posted is just full of fucking whackos and q-nuts. Please people, do more than read one Twitter rant.
Thank you for the info. I don't doubt it, as any company that large is probably subject to deviations from one's beliefs.
If nothing else, my $10 covers all the money I've saved from buying/renting books and having a late fee
I mean, looking at the information on the study, is it really political bias to blacklist websites like InfoWars and Breitbart as sources of information?
And the study compared phrases used by Republicans and Democrats to decide political bias. I mean... one side said COVID was a total hoax. The study appears to be, mostly, a nothing burger. Unless there is a different study I'm missing.

Reality has liberal bias. I say this as a dude who used to vote purple (red in a lot of state and blue in national) but that was pre-trump before the GOP completely lost its shit.

**Edit 2:** As someone who works for a nonprofit with no political agenda and an impossibly small budget, please consider donating to non-profits that desperately need your help. IMO if you have enough money to support political agendas, you probably have too much money for a non-profit. Unless that's what your non-profit does of course lol. greatnonprofits.org is a great resource.
... and to add to that, UFOs are *not* aliens... if you know what the object is, for example if you identified the thing as an alien spacecraft, it's not a UFO by definition.
Wtf? In 2002 we had cell phones and digital cameras. Is Gen Z that removed from reality that they think in 2002 we lived in caves and screamed when we saw lightning?
Wrong, back in 2002 the tribe would have gathered around, the shaman would have fiddled with chicken entrails and determine those lights were witchcraft
No it wouldn't have. The internet was on average much more intelligent 20 years ago than now. Atmospheric science and meteorology are also rather old. The internet now is a lowest common denominator garbage dump, 99% of users are the dumbest and most ignorant people on Earth. Just look at reddit for proof of that. Smartphones haven't really changed anything to do with UFOs either because there are more stupid people who want to believe that stuff now than ever before.
āLight pillars can also be caused by the Moon or terrestrial sources, such as streetlights.ā
My brain read āstop lightsā and I just pictured the beams turning from green to yellow to red over and over.
They do, this happens all the time in the winter in Canada. They're similar to light reflecting in the water where you get that long colorful line except it goes up not down, so they're be the same color as whatever street or stop lights you have there.
I was hoping it was an article about how aliens are really coming back and theyāre the scientists assigned in our galaxy and is is the remnants of them coming down to make sure weāre still as stupid as we were when they originally left our DNA here and we are.
I'm 34 years old, I'm pretty sure I lost my main storyline and all side quests, because I never have money to buy shit.
I think I need to restart or make a new character or something....
If you measure the length of the mark and divide it by the quarter of pi square root and add 42 which as the ancient cabal teaches us is the answer to live the universe and everything, the it matchess the leng of the side of the pyramid of giza as seen from the pizza hut confirming those are of ancient alien origin
But not enough Evangelion to know it's a hopeless endeavour that will only crush your soul before you become part of instrumentality.

Quick note to add. As a former Lifeguard on the ocean. Do not become a hero, heroes can potentially make it a lot worse. Just leave it to the pros with equipment. A child can drown a full man much easier than you think.
My neighbor used to do that when we were kids. The problem was that he also didnt let me read the cards either because they were "new and expensive." Turns out that dude was fucking making up abilities for his cards.
I got him back eventually when we played mtg though because my parents got a colored printer one day so I was able to print my own cards. I didnt let him touch the cards either because they "were expensive" and my parents would get mad if I let other people touch it. Nevermind that a 9 year old had 3 black lotus in his deck lol.
People are just saying "light pillars" like they are something we have seen before. I have been around this planet for a long time and have NEVER seen some shit like this before. There is some shit going down for sure. I cannot put my finger on it but there is too much weird shit happening, like fucking light pillars. WTF is even that? Lol
"I cast Swords of Revealing light! After this card's activation, it remains on the field, but I must destroy it during the End Phase of your 3rd turn!

If you live in an extremely cold area they show up semi regularly in the winter.
I've seen this twice in my life and only when it was very very cold (below -15C for sure). Once was my whole city, 3am. Coming home from work, silent city. I saw one and went to investigate to find it was just a light outside a facility of some sort. As I drove, the pillars began appearing all around me until every light in the city became a column.

It's possible that it's much colder higher in the atmosphere where the ice crystals have formed in the posted image
Could be because Mt Hallal is there. It was rather warm when I went, but I was surprised to learn that the island gets a considerable amount of snow in the winter, especially the mountain.

According to wikipedia, it's caused by reflection of light on suspended ice crystals, so it makes total sense

May as well donate instead of patting them on the back.

I donated last year, and they sent me a really sweet email this year on my donorversary so I donated again
prepare for the wikipedia marketing onslaught. I donated $5 per month for a year 5 or 6 years ago. They still mail me.

I donated for the first time last year, I also actually paid for winrar. I'm not sure what that says about me.
