News and notes from around the interweb:
- Former National Security advisor:
Former National Security Advisor and retired Army Lt. Gen. H.R. McMaster became the latest official to make eyebrow-raising comments about UFOs, now formally rebranded as “unidentified anomalous phenomena” or UAP.
Asked about UAP during a Sept. 6 appearance on “Real Time with Bill Maher,” McMaster stated that “there are phenomena that have been witnessed by multiple people that are just inexplicable by any kind of science available to us.”
- An intoxicated woman on a Ryanair flight caused a scene by shouting profanities and ironically threatening to “make [her seatmate] famous,” while fellow passengers captured her meltdown on video. The incident escalated until she was removed from the aircraft by ground staff. Live and Let’s Fly archived the video that has since been removed from TikTok.

- 1,000 Marriott points now transfer to 100 Starbucks stars. Meh.
- In which I tell Hawaiian media that Alaska-Hawaiian is among the ‘least bad’ airline mergers we’ve seen. Remember that many of the things you don’t like that ultimately come of this may have happened anyway, since Hawaiian has been a financial underpeformer.
Well , Brandon and Camel-a are also “inexplicable by any kind of science available to us” .
Alert- Really?
A working light bulb or a car would have been inexplicable to Newton or Archimedes but the science that made them was later discovered by humans, aliens not needed. Though it is fun to speculate.
As for the political comment, their opponent is quite explicable. Consult any textbook on abnormal psychology. But you may need to read several chapters to catch all the symptoms.
@drrichard … The minority’s aversion to The Donald is also quite explicable .

When my kids were young made a game of talking gibberish with made up words . They called it Donald Duck barking..which made no sense.
Until now.
“Alert” seems to have a real fetish for Kamala Harris, but neither his fetishes nor Tr*mp-inspired name-calling is impressive.
McMaster isn’t the kind of person to be counted upon for scientific judgments about biological species.
Speaking of biological science, it wouldn’t surprise me if tardigrades came back from space and managed to keep reproducing on Earth.
