What really crashed in Roswell?

In 1947, the U.S. government said it was a weather balloon. Conspiracy theorists believe something far stranger came down from the sky.

Aliens, a cover-up, or something else entirely?

Watch and decide for yourself.

The Philadelphia Experiment: Did a Navy Ship Vanish?

Invisible ships. Teleportation. Sailors trapped between dimensions. What really happened aboard the USS Eldridge, and why won’t the story disappear?

Did you know?

The world’s first android wasn’t some futuristic robot made by Google or Boston Dynamics. Nope. It was built way back in 1774, during the reign of Louis XVI. And the mastermind behind this mechanical marvel? A Swiss watchmaker named Pierre Jaquet-Droz.

At first glance, The Writing Boy looks like some antique toy—just a wooden doll with a porcelain head, no shoes, and a goose feather in hand. But here’s the kicker: inside that doll is a mind-blowing piece of engineering. We’re talking 6,000 moving parts working together to turn this “kid” into the first automatic calligrapher in history.

It took Jaquet-Droz 20 months of obsessive tinkering to get it right. And what does the little guy write when he finally springs to life? “My inventor is Jacques Droz.” (Humble brag much?) When they unveiled him in Paris in 1774, King Louis XVI’s court was floored. No one had seen anything like it.

This wasn’t just a quirky parlor trick. It was a milestone—an engineering flex that laid the groundwork for modern robotics.

Let’s break it down:
-The first programmed android ever.
-6,000 individual moving parts in a single mechanism.
-A project that took almost two years to complete.
-Debuted in Paris, 1774, and left everyone’s jaw on the floor.

Kind of wild to think that before there were Roombas, there was The Writing Boy.

This is one of those moments where reality feels more like a glitch in the Matrix than something you’d read in a history book. What you’re looking at here is a photo from 1973 during the construction of Les Halles in Paris—a place that was once a bustling market before it got turned into a giant construction pit. That wrapped structure in the corner? That’s the Fountain of the Innocents, just chilling above what looks like the remnants of an entirely different civilization.

Now here’s the kicker: those underground buildings? They go down about five stories deep. And historians, in their ever-so-calm and collected way, have labeled this a “cultural layer.” Which is really just a fancy way of saying, “We’re not entirely sure what’s going on, but let’s stick with the narrative.” Convenient, right?

But let’s entertain a thought here—because why the hell not? There’s this theory floating around on the internet, gaining traction, about a mud flood. Yeah, you heard me: a massive, worldwide flood of mud that supposedly buried entire cities. Paris, St. Petersburg, and countless others. According to the conspiracy, this isn’t just a quirk of history but evidence of a lost civilization that was wiped out—or buried—by some cataclysmic event. And the idea is that all these “cultural layers” are the remnants of a world that got quite literally swept under the rug.

So, is it all a coincidence? Are we just overthinking some old construction photos? Maybe. Or maybe we’re looking at a piece of history that’s been hiding in plain sight, waiting for us to connect the dots. Either way, one thing’s for sure: it’s getting harder for the so-called “experts” to keep a lid on stories like this in the age of Reddit threads and YouTube documentaries.

Something to think about the next time you’re walking through a city, wondering what might be buried under your feet.

About 6,000 years ago, the Sahara wasn’t the endless sandbox we know today. It was a lush paradise, brimming with life, thanks to the African Humid Period. This era, stretching from 11,000 to 5,000 years ago, turned North Africa into a verdant landscape, complete with lakes, rivers, and abundant wildlife. The driving force? Earth’s orbital “wobble,” which cranked up summer solar radiation and supercharged monsoons over the region.

Geological evidence backs this up—lake sediments, Nile River runoff, and a drop in Saharan dust deposits all point to a wetter Sahara. Humans thrived here, leaving behind rock art that showcases a once-bustling ecosystem. But as the African Humid Period wound down, the Sahara gradually dried up, pushing people toward more hospitable areas like the Nile River. This migration set the stage for the rise of complex societies, including ancient Egypt.

Now, here’s the kicker: The Sahara’s transformation isn’t a one-time deal. Over the past 800,000 years, it’s oscillated between desert and green landscapes roughly every 21,000 years, thanks to shifts in Earth’s orbit and other natural factors. So, the idea that the Sahara could become a green oasis again isn’t just wishful thinking; it’s part of a natural cycle.

But let’s address the elephant in the room: climate change conspiracies. Some folks argue that climate change is a hoax, cooked up by scientists and governments for ulterior motives. Others claim that natural cycles, like the Sahara’s greening and drying, prove that human-induced climate change is a myth.

However, these arguments ignore a crucial point: While Earth’s climate does have natural fluctuations, the current rate of change is unprecedented and closely linked to human activities. Dismissing this reality by labeling it a conspiracy not only undermines scientific consensus but also hampers efforts to address pressing environmental challenges.

In short, the Sahara’s history teaches us that Earth’s climate is dynamic, influenced by both natural cycles and, in our current era, human actions. Recognizing this dual influence is essential for making informed decisions about our planet’s future.

Imagine stumbling onto a two-thousand-year-old time capsule, filled with scrolls, mosaics, and the echoes of a world that got flash-frozen in the middle of its daily grind. That’s the library of Papyri for you—an ancient treasure trove sitting in Herculaneum, a once-chill residential town near Naples, Italy, that got absolutely wrecked by Mount Vesuvius in 79 A.D.

The place was built by Lucius Calpurnius Piso (aka Caesar’s father-in-law, which totally sounds like a Game of Thrones character) and somehow ended up being one of the oldest libraries to survive the chaotic roulette of history. How? Volcanic ash. Turns out, getting buried under 90 meters of molten misery is a hell of a preservation strategy.

While Pompeii gets all the hype as a Roman Costco on fire, Herculaneum was more of a posh suburb where people flexed their wealth in fancy houses and libraries. And the discovery? It was one giant “oops.” In 1709, some dude was digging a well for a monastery and smashed into rare marble, ancient artifacts, and this badass library.

What’s wild is that the scrolls inside weren’t even recognized until the 18th century because they were caked in volcanic mud for two freaking millennia. Now, fast forward to today, and this place is a mecca for history buffs, archaeologists, and curious tourists. You walk in, and bam—it’s like being punched in the face with ancient Roman luxury. A mosaic here, a fresco there, and the eerie feeling of stepping into a ghost town that never got to clock out.

In short, this library isn’t just a place. It’s a reminder that even when the world ends in fire and ash, some pieces of it are stubborn enough to stick around and tell their story.

I just posted my 3 Slipknot tickets for sale on Ticketmaster for their SOLD-OUT show in Austin, TX on September 17th with special guests Knocked Loose & Vended (Corey Taylor's and Shawn Clown Crahan's sons' band.

If you or anyone you know in the Austin area want them let me know and I'll send you to the page to grab them before anyone else does.

When people talk about traveling to the past, they worry about radically changing the present by doing something then.

Yet, barely anyone in the present really thinks that they can radically change the future by doing something now.

Surround yourself with people that being out the best in you and motivate each other to be a better person now, so you can make a bigger impact on the future.
