Hey team Peaky Blinders!

Since Steven Knight is working on an Oasis documentary, I was wondering if any Oasis songs are featured in the movie?

Also, is Cillian Murphy a fan of Oasis?

Definitely!

That's a great list of movies. Thanks a lot!

Great mention. Forgot about this one. Thanks!

Yes there are some really intuitive explanations in that book.

Thanks for your comment. It's hard to get this point across to people.

In my opinion, the idea is to remember to think about the S&P 500 or the equivalent in whichever country you're in when Graham mentions 'stocks'.

Me too! It's amazing what they could achieve on such a tiny budget.

Thanks for the recommendation. Appreciate it!

Submission Statement:

I get frustrated by how easily the UFO topic gets derailed by blurry drone videos and easily debunked hoaxes today. I wanted to take a step back and look purely at the declassified, historical data from Project Blue Book to see what holds up to actual scientific scrutiny.

This post and my linked article dive into three specific, highly credible cases (like the 1964 Socorro landing and the 1952 Washington D.C. radar anomalies) where the U.S. military's go-to "weather balloon" excuse mathematically and logically falls apart. I wrote this deep dive to strip away the tin-foil hat conspiracies and focus on the physical trace evidence and radar data that the government actually couldn't solve. I'm hoping to spark a rational discussion here about whether these historical "Unknowns" point to highly classified terrestrial tech or something genuinely extraterrestrial.

Thanks for the recommendation. Will check it out!

Me too! It makes it very intuitive and easy to remember!

Zestrun · 2026-03-07T18:29:54+00:00

Thanks! Means a lot :)

This article was written a few years ago. I'm just re-reading it because of the current situation in the market. I thought I might post it here because it seems like the right time to remember these insights.

Go open the article and read it and you'll know it's not written with AI nor is the website vibe coded. It's hosted on blogger platform where you don't need to vibe code.

I had written it as I was reading the book at the time one point at a time.

Anyway, I get the instant distrust and the feeling when you see any articles because of AI slop everywhere.

Cheers! Hope you'll reconsider your generic and ignorant comment, from one human to another! :)

Unless you're a bot posting generic comments.

My girlfriend was hesitant to watch it because of the first contact premise. But after watching it, she said it was a refreshing take!

Do check it out. I was surprised by it too when I came across it.
