But one part did catch the attention of people who’ve never followed this topic before: a claim that George Bush Sr. knew about aliens. And today a lot of news outlets have jumped on it.
According to the film, the late president told a federal official that aliens made contact with humans at a secret New Mexico air base in 1964. The claim comes from Eric Davis — an astrophysicist and former scientific advisor to the now-defunct Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program… Davis says Bush personally confirmed the story to him in a private conversation.
Here’s what Davis says Bush told him: Three spacecraft were seen approaching the base … One of them landed. A non-human entity emerged and had a face-to-face meeting with military and CIA officials.
The entity then returned to the craft and departed.
And here’s the frustrating part: when Davis pressed Bush Sr. for more details, he was told he “did not have the need to know.” Even a former president gets the classic UFO brick wall.
Presidents and UFOs have always had some weird flirtation with the topic. Bill Clinton, Obama, and George W. Bush all joked — usually on late-night shows — that they “know more than we do” but aren’t going to spill anything. It’s always tongue-in-cheek, but always there. Jimmy Carter even say he saw a UFO and supposedly got a phone call never to talk about it again. So we are told..
And of course, we can’t forget the long-standing rumors about Dwight Eisenhower allegedly meeting with aliens and giving away some of our sovereignty in exchange for “experiments.” I guess those anal probes are the price we pay for liking Ike.
So that’s the big takeaway from Age of Disclosure. It’s a headline-grabber for newcomers, even though many longtime UFO folks have heard pieces of this story before.
For everyone just joining the UFO world — welcome aboard the craft. We don’t know much, but we sure know the rumors and the innuendo.
Two very specific—but wildly different—events happened today, and somehow they both gave me the exact same feeling. They’re not related, not connected, not even in the same solar system. One’s about UFOs, the other’s about Donald Trump. But the outcome? The vibe? Exactly the same. That sense that we’re being played or gas-lit—pick whichever word fits your mood—on this cold November Friday night.
The UFO Side of Things: “Disclosure” or Just Another Tease?
A new documentary dropped today called The Age of Disclosure. If you’re even loosely following the UFO world, you’ve heard the buildup. Months of whispers, interviews, hype, and promise that this is the next big step toward finally learning the truth.
It’s the same old routine: they dangle a chocolate bar from a fishing line, and as soon as we get close, they drive off in a truck doing 85 on Route 61. Disclosure is always the carrot on the stick—never the meal.
Every time David Grusch or another whistle-blower gets hauled before Congress, it feels like the big moment is coming. The big reveal. The truth bomb. And every single time, they back off. They get vague. They hedge their language. Headlines fade. Congress shrugs. And we’re left staring at the sky like fools, holding onto nothing.
So today, when The Age of Disclosure finally released on Amazon, I checked the price:
$24.99 to buy. $19.99 to rent.
Look, I’m not saying they have to give it away for free. But when something is marketed as a world-changing revelation, and then it costs as much as a small grocery run, it starts to feel less like disclosure and more like a business model. The UFO world at this point has merch tables, collector editions, and VIP passes. It’s starting to feel like pro wrestling.
So here I am on a Friday night, debating whether I should rent it, buy it, or skip it completely. Will it actually give me anything new? Or will it be the same old talking heads telling the same old stories, with the same old “We’re getting close!” energy? That chocolate bar just keeps dangling, just out of reach.
Meanwhile, in a Completely Different Universe: Trump and Mayor Elect Zohran Mamdani
On the far opposite end of the galaxy, Donald Trump met today with New York City’s newly elected mayor, Zohran Mamdani. The media showed up loaded for drama. Everyone expected tension. People still remember the awkward tension-filled meeting Trump had with Zelensky in 2019, so the stage was set for another icy showdown.
And then… the exact opposite happened.
Trump and Mamdani acted like they were best friends from way back. Trump practically glowed. Mamdani smiled like he just won a radio contest. They complimented each other. They joked. They praised each other in ways that made both liberals and conservatives blink in confusion.
It was a Kumbaya moment no one saw coming. It felt rehearsed. Polished. Almost like a scene from a play that someone forgot to tell us was satire. And again, the same feeling washed over me:
We’re being played.
It’s Not Just These Two Stories — It’s Everything Lately
One news outlet says it’s the cheapest Thanksgiving in years. Another says it’s the most expensive ever recorded. Walmart claims prices dropped 25%. Meanwhile, people at home feel like they’re paying 50% more.
Pick your talking point. Pick your truth. Pick your reality.
We’re living in an era where The Age of Disclosure doesn’t disclose anything—and The Age of Confusion is fully operational. UFOs, politics, economics… none of it lines up. None of it makes sense. Everything feels like a performance, a script, a distraction, a dangling chocolate bar we’re sprinting after.
We run harder. It drives farther.
The candy bar never gets closer. The mystery never solves itself. The answers never appear.
Just more confusion. More noise. More showmanship. More exhaustion.
Maybe one day we’ll actually catch that chocolate bar. But tonight? It’s just getting smaller in the distance— while we stand here out of breath, heart pounding, adrenaline fading, wondering why we’re still running.
NASA hosted a special press conference yesterday to unveil images and to answer questions around the mysterious interstellar 3I/Atlas object that’s caught the attention of the public and the imagination of some scientists that believe this may be an alien spacecraft.
NASA only shared very blurry or very pixelated images of the object..
3i/ATLAS update:
The first image is from an amateur, ground based astronomer.
The second is from NASA, the largest space agency in history.
Keep in mind that we were told the budget issue and government closure was delaying images coming out. We had to rely on amateur astronomers or other countries..
We all waited holding our breath for the big giant reveal from NASA of the images that would absolutely showcase this being a comment. Instead the mystery now deepens because NASA gave us things that clearly are worse than what even amateur astronomers gave us.
Media is reporting what is being called a startling first..
A Washington state man has been infected with a strain of bird flu previously only detected in animals and never before in humans..
The “severely ill” man was hospitalized with a high fever, confusion and respiratory distress earlier this month and confirmed to have H5N5, a subtype of avian influenza carried by wild birds like ducks and geese.
It is being reported that he has health conditions and is older.
Revisiting the 1990 It miniseries is like stepping back into a time when horror on TV had to dance carefully around the censors and when a clown named Pennywise became an icon dancing on the little screen.
I remember it well: I was ten years old, my homework half-finished, and the only way I could get to watch that eagerly anticipated TV event was by promising I’d get my work done. It was absolutely life-changing for a young movie fan like me.
ABC took a pretty bold leap adapting Stephen King’s It for prime-time television. Sure, they had to cut out the more graphic and adult themes from the novel. The blood and gore was minimized to nearly nothing. The unsettling moments got toned down so they wouldn’t scare the living daylights out of a wide audience watching that night. But even with all those network limitations, they created something truly special.
A big portion of the magic was Tim Curry.
His portrayal of Pennywise wasn’t buried in monster makeup. It was a deceptively simple clown design—almost friendly on the surface, which somehow made it even more terrifying. Curry didn’t rely on special effects or gore but instead was able to subtlety have presence, voice, and a simple smile. That haunting, unforgettable smile. In a time when horror icons like Freddy and Jason dominated with blades and blood, Pennywise chilled you with charm and menace and a little paper boat for Georgie.
The production itself had challenges. There were delays, rewrites, and debate within ABC about just how far they could go. But the cast, both kids and adults, brought heart to the screen. The chemistry was real, and despite the limitations of the format, they managed to breathe life into King’s story. Curry’s performance was so commanding that he overshadowed everything else and become the most anticipated part of the made for TV series.
Yes, even that ending with the not-so-great giant spider was lousy.. but being honest, that part’s a bit of a punchline now when you watch it again.. but somehow Curry held the whole thing together and ages like a fine wine.
There are no reports of any dramatic on-set accidents or major injuries. It wasn’t a famously chaotic set. Most of the struggles came from trying to condense King’s dark, emotional, and layered story into something suitable for 1990s television.
At the time, the reviews were generally solid, especially considering the restraints of the medium.
Stephen King himself was pleased with it. And now, all these years later, it’s still fondly remembered—not just for the scares, but for what it represented: a moment when horror tried something different. When it became a prime-time event. When kids like me rushed to finish their homework just to be scared by a clown.
The 1990 It wasn’t just horror—it was appointment television. And for a lot of us, it still lingers in the back of our minds, floating there like a red balloon in the storm drain of memory.
Tim Curry…
He made us all really scared of clowns. And that was more than enough for TV…

Fangoria magazine is one of the preeminent horror publications and has been for so many years. It’s been the official record of horror movies, television, and pop culture for decades..
And by the way, we get no profit from this and have no motive for posting it beyond genuine appreciation for the magazine itself and what it has contributed to this corner of the entertainment world over the years.
But it goes beyond Fangoria. We need to preserve more. Too many things get lost in the shuffle of online pop-culture representation, and we move so fast that the permanent record of what once was seems to vanish within seconds. Links go dead. Facts become blurry. Sources we once found are suddenly impossible to locate again.
That’s what makes this Kickstarter—and others like it—so important. It preserves something that mattered, and it keeps that meaning alive long beyond our own existence on this earthly plane. So good luck to everyone involved. It’s a great idea, and everyone should be thrilled with the result if it all works out.
Pope Leo told a group of leading Hollywood actors and filmmakers at an audience in the Vatican on Saturday that cinemas were struggling to survive and that more should be done to protect them and preserve the shared experience of watching movies..
“Cinemas are experiencing a troubling decline, with many being removed from cities and neighbourhoods,” he said.
“More than a few people are saying that the art of cinema and the cinematic experience are in danger. I urge institutions not to give up, but to cooperate in affirming the social and cultural value of this activity.”
We’re really excited about the upcoming Backrooms movie, currently set for a 2026 release, even though we still don’t know too much about its development beyond the creative team involved.
20-year-old director Kane Parsons is helming one of the most anticipated analog-horror adaptations ever — has announced that work on the Director’s Cut is officially complete. That doesn’t mean the Final Cut is anywhere near done, but it’s another step toward that 2026 release window.
The Backrooms has always been something mundane and frightening at the same time, and that’s the magic of it. Honestly, I love the Backrooms so much that I’ve even fallen asleep to those endless looping YouTube videos of yellow hallways humming in the background. I know I’m not alone — a lot of us have had moments in life where a strange hallway or empty office building at night made us feel like we accidentally “noclipped” into level 0 ourselves.
If the movie captures that eerie mix of nostalgia, dread, and liminal weirdness, the concept alone is strong enough to make this a huge success. We’re hoping for a lot here.
In the meantime, I want to direct your attention to a TikTok creator named tater tot.
Whoever they are, they’ve been doing God’s work: creating Backrooms videos using AI, trapping all sorts of figures — especially Ronald Reagan — deep inside the maze. And quite frankly, a full movie of Ronald Reagan wandering the Backrooms, confused and doomed, would absolutely work for me.
What a weird day in news and politics.. reporters have been apprehensive about sharing or reporting this but the internet has gone wild with Trump and Jeffrey Epstein and now Bill Clinton connections..
One of the emails released, from Epstein’s brother Mark Epstein, has gone viral. In it, Mark speculates if Putin has a photo of “Trump blowing Bubba.”
The mention of the President “blowing Bubba” has caused a storm on social media, as ‘Bubba’ is the nickname of former President Bill Clinton, who is also alleged to have been associated with Epstein.
But people have taken it and molded it into thr political shocker worthy of a Trump Season 2 plot shift..
Drudge was in his glory mockinga Trump and also Clinton–hardening back to what got Drudge famous to begin with in the late 90s..
Meanwhile Trump raised eyebrows along with the volume at the White House…
Politico correspondent Jake Taylor noted on Friday afternoon that music from “The Phantom of the Opera” was playing so loudly it could be heard outside the White House. The president is said to be a notorious fan of Broadway show tunes and enjoys playing DJ at events.
If it’s Friday…. Trump is blaring “The Phantom of the Opera” at the White House. pic.twitter.com/Plzqc1I9UT
