“I FOUND THE MOTHERSHIP!!!!!”
😀
🤣🤣🤣
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Keen eyes 👀
Lmao!!
So these drones weren't moving at all?
Betelguese is going nova right now with its lil friend. So it's going to get even brighter for a period of time
Correction: an awesome astrophysicist @saavikford.bsky.social let me know it T Coronae Borealis with the 80 yr co ing up. Thanks for your kindness! I appreciate you.
What ever you do, don't say the name 3 times in a row 🤭
🤣🤣🤣
Name someone who hasn’t dunked on him.
And somehow failed to realize that Rigel is (usually) brighter than both of those. :P
Wait till Betelgeuse goes super nova. He'll have kittens!
🤣🤣That’s hilarious when they dunk on their own. That will be more pervasive as time goes by. Their lives are spent looking for the next thing to rant about.
All we need to do is sit back, laugh at the maga shit show. They truly are all clowns, selected not only to destroy, but also to distract while kleptocracy is hard at work. Meanwhile get ready to promote candidates for upcoming elections to backfill spots like NY-21st, and midterms in 2026.
Maybe he needs the app “Skyview Lite” on his phone to prevent another post of misinformation
The stupidity is mind boggling.
These brain-mushed Infantiles have no control over themselves during a mass fervor-they cannot help but get caught up in herd mentality that they brainwash themselves into believing absurd things. He is so desperate to point out the fault of the fed gov. Now they’re brainwashing themselves!
MAGA are blowing the story out of proportion to ruin Biden's last month in the White House. So the Democrats could take over from January 20 to ruin Trump's start
Being corrected by MAGA and having MAGA’s correction be accurate is surreal (shaking head)
Nobody likes Larry Hogan
That's so funny. They're paranoid.
When Public Schools go unfunded, and citizens can't learn basic astronomy and critical thinking, enter the conspiracy theories and Roseanne Barr to explain reality 🙄 www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article...
Dallas has already announced the closure of 5 schools next year.
Great! The ignorant leading the stupid, what could go wrong?
Geez 😟 Public school closures appear to be happening all over the nation. Seattle proposed closing 21 schools, and now I believe - thanks to public outrage - closures are at zero for 2025: www.seattleschild.com/no-seattle-s...
Apparently they need to save $4.5 m in Texas so they decided closing schools was the best way.
🫠
Seattle Schools also need money. Yet the citizens demanded they find it elsewhere. There are many tech million-, billionaires in Seattle who've made the region expensive to live. I believe they are the ones who should pay their fair share and support Seattle schools, the future tech workforce.
I agree but, in the US right now, the ordinary folk simply don't matter. All that DOES matter is tax cuts for corporations and billionaires.
That’s my former governor, he’s supposed to be “one of the good ones”
Thanks for saying former governor. Fortunately, he was not elected senator.
One of the few wins on election night
After the caper in that Colorado theater a few months ago, EVERY republican should be aware of "Betelgeuse"!
And the brightest drone was Jupiter, watching him from 381 million miles away.
Imagine if he had turned around and saw Venus!
Not 1 of these articles mention that the "drones" he posted were actually Orion. Some of them even have his Tweet embedded in the article WITH the community note pointing out that it's Orion yet the article still gives the impression he really did see drones in the sky. I am so sick of the media.
Jesus. That is absolutely unforgivable.
Major media adding to the hysteria.
Look up Elon Musk Drone Swarms
Please gods, let this be satire
Yet another example of how these cesspool animals want an uneducated population!
Glad he didn’t win his Senate race, because he of course would have went full MAGA
OMG that is freaking funny!
He used to be considered a "normal" republican..whatever that means. Guess he drank the kool-ade
They want to gaslight and distract us from their real corruption.
🥴
Talk about "shooting stars."
There's a full moon, maybe they think it's the Death Star.
This is why the majority voted for Alsobrooks
Idiots....
OMG
Make America Gullible Assholes.
Keep them poor and dumb and they’ll keep voting republican.
Someone should dress up as MIB and go to his house and punk him. #moron
Beefing up his creds for an administration position: -Lost last election -Sees “drones” -Claims Gov’t cover up -Claims to hate Trump
He's being hunted by Orion...⭐️
When people who have never looked up at the night sky before look up: omg! There's stuff up there!
On a clear night last night, I looked up and literally saw billions of drones in the air. I’m not kidding. They were as far as the eye could see.
One big power outage, like Canada cutting off the northeast, and suddenly no light pollution. Are people going to be scared of the night sky? That’s sad.
The trick is to move to the city so you can more easily keep count of the 20 or so celestial objects you can still see from there.
“And the Lord said unto Abraham, “Verily, your seed shall number as the drones in the sky.” “My Lord, that’s the constellation Orion.” “O yeah, I forgot I made that.”
Lol!!!
This is insane!
So sad💙
Republicans wanting to shut down department of education actually makes sense. If you never read a page in your life, it sure would be difficult to understand there benefit of reading books or learning.
Geez, I thought I did poorly in K-12, but these people make me realize I didn't do that bad after all. Their take kinda makes me feel like a genius.
Hahahaha.
This is why you can’t take someone’s word when they say a particular person is smart. They will inevitably out themselves, just like Elon
🤦🏻♀️
Larry will never live this down
😒🙄😒🤪🤡👻💩🤖👽
Are older people getting high for the first time? Are they tripping on their meds? Please tell me they're not sober. Yikes!
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 what a stupid man..! I'm totally sure he's a MAGA! 🤣🤣🤣
Hogan is obviously an idiot. Most who voted republican are not well educated.
He’s never been the same since the illness.
Someone please tell him that looking directly into the sun for 5 minutes is healthy 🤣
Makes that that much happier that I voted for Angela Alsobrooks.
It's odd people are slipping into the dark ages with the aid of technology.
He isn’t the governor of anything. Wes Moore is the governor of Maryland.
Drones were seen in Virginia, so I bet he wanted to be a part of the action too. Only they were seen near the mountains on the southwest side, nowhere close to DC!
I am neither “frustrated” or “concerned” Larry.
Orion is my favorite constellation I learned that in elementary school.
What drones? What stars? It's Elon's car getting recalled from Mars.
And here I thought having basic knowledge of constellations was normal. I’m caught between laughing and crying
Sometimes, I laugh so hard I cry, so it is possible to do both at the same time. I 😁
Good point. Laughing til you cry = usually good Crying til you laugh = maybe not so much 🤣
It’s honestly the easiest to spot too. Like the first one we were taught in school. For anyone interested. It’s right under Gemini where the full moon is. To your right there is a bright what looks like a star-that is Jupiter. For star gazers out there.
That and the Big Dipper (it’s major) I’ve spent most of my life in places you can see the stars. It’s kinda of heartbreaking to think that some never really have.
😂 I meant Ursa* not it’s, but that works as well, since you can use it to find Polaris - which is the North Star for now
No worries. It’s a happy place now :)
Then there are actually billions of trillions of those things up there in the sky - damn!
Seems like he’s ahead of the game re the lack of education
Wait'll he gets a look at the Perseus cluster. He'll lose his sh*t.
They want to shut it down so they can divert our tax money from public schools to pay for their kids to attend private/Christian schools. Trump did say he “loves the uneducated”!
It is hard to resist the temptation to rejoin X just to tell him he is an ignoramus.
How does one "mount a negligent response"?
See "Trump - covid" for an example
The only thing we haven’t seen yet is someone bringing out a Sharpie to connect the dots.
Maryland dodged a bullet…
and that big yellow thing that comes out during the day looks dangerous.
It is quite literally a hydrogen bomb. Probably sent from China!
I am happy that he lost the senate seat. And he is not the governor former governor.
At least the state of Maryland was smart enough to not send him to the Senate.
Thank goodness he didn’t win again
Former Governor, so he can go put his tin foil hat on and slither away into the Chesapeake.
That must be satire, right?
Updating the definition of what a "drone" can be to include celestial objects would make some governmental spokespeople's jobs much easier right now.
Meanwhile this lady’s in charge
So very gross
Omg... he... really did report stars in Orion as drones!!! When the stupid are in charge you get this garbage.
my favorite constellation. called _ksil_ "the fool" in Jewish tradition because when you see him at the horizon he looks huge but in the middle he looks much smaller.
My (Republican) FIL made my husband come over so he could see “all these drones everywhere.” When hubby got there, his dad pointed to Venus, two stars, a helicopter, and a small plane. Critical thinking is not a R’s strong suit.
Wow. Did your FIL accept the truth or did he insist they were drones?
He did! Hubby is very good at backing himself with facts (and is a bit of an aviation nerd) so he was able to talk sense into him. And to my FIL’s credit, he’s willing to change his mind from time to time, given the right circumstances (they’re rarely right, but it sometimes happens!).
I mean, it’s ORION!!! 😂💚
Anyone who can't identify Orion is not close to being Sirius.
😂
Love it 😂🙌🏼
I named my son Orion. You wouldn't believe how few people know what that is!
I love that name!! And I’m terrified to know that answer. 😭
Could’ve used the SkyView app 😉
I think he did for Venus & the stars, and I think that’s why dad was amenable to the idea those three weren’t drones, after all! There’s an app or website or something for what planes & helicopters are transponding nearby, too, and that solved the 🚁 & ✈️ “mystery drone”!
Glad your hubby was able to reassure him.
Thank you.
Can someone give Larry Hogan a ticket to the MD Science Museum’s planetarium? It’s embarrassing!
And Hogan was supposed to be one the normies in the Republican Party.
And Hogan is far from the dumbest of the GOP clowns
If you move your camera around when you point at the stars, you’ll get streaky trails. Dude should’ve used a tripod.
Wishful thinking on his part.
Intelligent people everywhere...
🤣
Stolen
It’s yours , go forth and multiply
😂😂
Do they all have brain worms?
No. No brain -> no brain worms JFK has a dead brain worm - obviously it starved to death.
Don’t underestimate the stupidity of republican politicians. Larry Hogan is part of the problem.
🤣
Just OMG WOW I don't even know what to say to that. Incredible!
Little did I know when a friend of my family showed me Orion constellation, we were actually looking at drones, and they’ve been sitting in the same formation for over 30 some years. Who knew! Honestly, I’m so sick of this country, not the ppl, just every single one of these idiots parading around
Seriously, fuck all the bs ppl who are just creating chaos for the sake of chaos so they can steal our lives & time. I’m just fed up. And disgusted by all of this insanity. This is so fucking stupid.
Facts.
To stop people pointing out what utter morons they are,they want to drag everyone else down to their level. This has happened before, in Cambodia, in the killing fields.
He was my governor when I lived in Maryland. He did 1 good thing as governor, sneaking behind trump to get MD Covid supplies. Other than that, useless.
The stars are spying on us! They were put there by the guvmint! We need to shoot them down with ar gunz!
📌
Ach, once upon a time long long ago, we were all capable of looking at the night sky.
Idk what’s going on with these, but one thing I do know is that if it persists into Trump’s presidency, Gov Hogan won’t dare demand answers from the federal govt or denigrate their dismissive or nonexistent response.
I am not an astrology nerd but I named my dog a blue Dobie Rigel because it's a cool star...well it's hot but you know what I mean
the „drones“:
This is what happens when people stop looking at their phones and discover there are "things" in the sky.
With Sky Map you can do both while not making a fool of yourself
Yeah, that's part of the issue. Why don't they verify stuff first?
He's not just smart, he's maga smart.
Hey Gov, it's "neither" . . . "nor", not "or". And also, that huge white mothership drone is the fking moon.
👍🤣
😆
Have him say "Betelguese" three times just to see what happens.
That right there is superb.
Do you think he'd get abducted? Maybe?
Good one! I’m waiting for that star to go supernova. I wonder what they’d say then?
That the lithium batteries in drones are dangerous?
My grandson aged 6 is very interested in planets and can name all of them. He knows about Orion Constellation and have read over 100 books already! Educate your children. It is our responsibility to leave a better planets for the future.
What an idiot.
You know. This would be laughable for me but I've of my crew chiefs(from KY) thought the Milky Way Was some kind of cloud haze when we were in Syria.
Come on guys, let’s give Governor some credit, he observed the activity for 45 minutes!
This is comical and embarrassing actually. Hogan now trying to get accepted into the crazy wing of the party.
🤔
What a damn moron!!!
Entire state of Maryland feeling even better about their collective 2024 senate election choice rn
I need to move back there
We'll leave the light on
A reminder why school is important.
Bless him! GOP ex-office holders can't stop from hopping on a good ol' band wagon whenever one passes by! 🥳🤡😱
@carrythe0.bsky.social I'm so tired
JFC he couldn't tell they weren't moving? The drones around here are moving!
*Former* Governor
I’m from Maryland, Higan was a really good governor, but his tweet was looney….looked like stars to me! They were very bright, lower on the horizon and the sky was incredibly clear, not something you normally see in our skies. Maybe that confused him?? Please tell me he’s not drinking the koolaid.
Hogan, not Higan
OMFG. 🤦🏻♀️
Special. Can you imagine if a Democratic Governor had done this? Newsom? Whitmer? It would be a crucifixion. The asymmetry is wild. Republicans have license to do and say the wildest shit cause reality and science don’t matter to them.
NO This isn't true. I refuse to believe it. Otherwise I have to believe other impossibilities Like we elected a rapist Like the party against KGB & communism is LITERALLY in bed w a KGB communist Like corps are people & it's the 21st century & women need permission to reproduce health FAKE NEWS
I have a hard time believing humans are this stupid, too. But here we are, at the end of the world, in an apocalypse of humanity's own making. If I had any tears left, I'd weep.
Wow. I was wondering why I hasn't cried like many of my friends have & that's it I ran out Thanks. I think. And I'm a 2%er. I'm going to be richer when this all collapses. I'll be alone in a high rise in Dubai, sipping wine, toasting MBS, ready to jump.
Throw that cash at people around you. Make friends with those in need. You can make real differences in the lives of the people around you, you can be a voice for something better. Don't jump, help people fly.
Ok....there they are. Tears. Needed that. Was not expecting to find that while doom scrolling. Thanks. Great profile btw. Wish my world & feed were full of art & nature & humanity. I came to Bluesky to escape all the anger but it came here too :/ Anyway thank you & yes I do share good advice 🕉
Thank you. After the US election , I needed to surround myself with beauty and a bit horny, so I could distress and not have anxiety attacks. We have real work to do soon, I don't want to get bogged down with the hate. There will be time for that soon enough. I am glad I could give some solace.
You really did help someone today & I hope that helps u ❤️ urself more Which reinforces your advice :7 We do need to get out & find each other. No doubt we'll find red hats & bitter um green (left?l) ones But we'll find plenty w/o any hats. Or hair even! Ok lost the thread. just find your ppl lol
*reproductive health 🙄
There are NO good republicans.
What makes that more painful is that there were not all that long ago. Depends on your perspective of course as to what "not all that long" means, but people like Elliot Richardson, Lowell Weicker, Bill Weld (before he want off the deep end), etc. would have been driven out of the GOP by now.
This nightmare didn’t happen suddenly, overnight. The “good” ones surely saw what was happening and remained silent. Trump took advantage of a party he knew was already criminal. They laid the groundwork for him over decades, then just fell in line.
Oh, obviously it didn't. In 1986 I was working on a Republican congressional campaign. The NRCC sent out cassette tapes (yes, actually) with advice for candidates. That was the first time I heard the name Newt Gingrich and by the time the tape was done I was saying, "This guy is nuts."
Exactly. They weren’t blind to what they were being led into. Every one that was held up as decent or moderate was pure bullshit - a schtick they knew would work for a few of them. No one should forget “moderate”, “faithful” Romney was a vulture capitalist that destroyed companies & lives for money
FFS!
Can’t they just put Elon and starlink on it. 🙄
Maybe Larry hasn't looked up since he was a kid. Amazing what the Clean Air Act has done -- can even see stars in Jersey at night. Whoddathunkit??
Former governor.
And a barely mediocre one at that.
Don't blame this on stupidity. This is contrived and intentional. A distraction from what is going on. Every deception begins with distraction.
I think it's Trump's Razor: the stupidest explanation is usually the correct one
Watch drones while we pick your pockets 😒
Orion's Belt was clearly visible. What an idiot!
Representative of the current State of the Union... 👀😝
Oh Larry, sometimes it’s best not to post and give away your secrets. Dumb ass.
One has to wonder though what good the Department of Education has been to America if people like Larry Hogan have managed to get elected.
Tough game of spot the brain cell with Hogan...🤪🤪🤪
Larry Hogan - combining meat gazing & star gazing into conspiracies 🤦♀️
This!!!!!!!!!!!
I really can’t tell if this is satire. How does a Governor of a State post something so factually incorrect?
New mythology.
I am so glad that I have never voted for this moron. He was a mediocre, at best, governor and he would have been just another ass kisser in the Senate.
100% they want to destroy education. My therapist told me to put my worries into creative 😹 They want to get rid of critical thinking cause that would shine a light on the class war and would destroy the BS conspiracies they use to hide their true intentions.
Governor’s grandchild : Twinkle twinkle little star how I wonder what you are… Governor Larry Hogan: Well that’s obvious isn’t it - they are drones coming to attack us
Maryland must be soooooo proud.
Last night, where I live, you could see Jupiter, Saturn, Venus, and Aldebaran. …or at least that’s what I thought they were…
#weird
God help us all 😩
Well, it's not like they need it. Dude became a governor, sometimes needs to be reminded to breath.
Jeez. You don’t even have to be able to recognise Orion. You just have to know that some of the bright dots in the sky are stars.
***Former*** Governor Larry Hogan Don't do the good people of Maryland like that. They have chosen not to elect this man twice in recent elections--neither as governor nor as senator.
I've never heard stars called large drones before. I can't wait until flat earth 'theory' starts getting taught in school. I am not for getting rid of the Dept of Education, but if these dummies control it, I am not so sure.
And we’re not at war with anyone, yet… it’s just hysterical.
THIS mad science is what GOP have to contribute. If you don't know, Larry, stfu.
"Listen, my fellow dumb sheep. I will abolish DOE for your own good. I've learned nothing and neither will any of you dopes, now vote for me!" - Orange Stable Genius
🤦♀️ that gave me a good chuckle. If you can’t distinguish between stars and drones, you definitely should seek help. As for drones in the sky, I’m pretty sure it’s Elon and his brother just trying to mess with certain people
He must have been drunk. No one is that stupid.
You've clearly never met a MAGAt...
🤣
And he's a Govenor, people voted for this idiot, he should be laughed out of office and never be allowed near power again.
🤦🏻♂️ sad time were in
Fear and Hate is all they got...so they are leaning heavy on the Fear so we ignore the hate.
A reminder they are happy if you are stupid. Don’t be stupid.
i dont want to live shoulder to shoulder with these people
@seth-solmes.bsky.social 🙄🙄
🤷🏼♀️🤬
Mythology 2.0: Mount Olympus is the Deep State.
He'll be pleased to hear that the budget for the search for the origin of these lights has been *astronomical*.
Good grief! I'm glad he doesn't represent us in any capacity right now. I'm sure he'll try again.
Is this real? I mean…wtf? Who am I kidding of course it is bc this is America and this is the GOP. Again, we are screwed.
I simply have no words. The quantum of stupid in our country is beyond calculating.
With uneducated people freaking out about these drones and buying crackpot conspiracy theories, I’m not surprised Trump got elected again. People are seeing the same drone more than once and mistaking it for a new one, seeing copycats, seeing planes and now STARS and are in a panic.
😂😂
Damn 😂
Why? I don’t get it. 😔
There were numerous drone sightings in MD, many close to Hogans home. Hogan was a decent governor in MD, an anti-Trumper and certainly nothing like the MAGAs. He happens to be a centrist who's Republican. Tying him to people who want to close the Dept of Edu is not correct.
There was no such thing as a moderate Nazi.
If he’s repeating stupid shit, he’s the problem. Liz Cheney added to the abortion after birth problem. Holding Kamala’s hand doesn’t absolve that.
😮‼️
Well ... THAT'S embarrassing.
Every profession requires specific credentials. Why can't we require basic science education and accredited college degrees for becoming members of Congress? It is such a waste of taxpayer $$ to fund the ignorant and very dangerous too, when some are calling for shooting U.A.P.s down.
Wait, wasn't hogan one of the not-so-bad non-maga republicans? Just a reminder that even the non-magats are stupid.
Although it’s not clear what phenomena are being observed in New Jersey, as for Maryland, Larry Hogan demonstrates the leadership he would have brought to the U.S. Senate if only the good people of Maryland hadn’t recognized him for who he is after his years as Governor.🙄
I am convinced this drone stuff is a bunch of BS. Somebody is trying to create a narrative.
The Dark Ages are the new future😵💫
People need to get the fuck offline before the brain rot is terminal
Hahaha!
With all of Musk's fucking Starlinks, one cannot even take a decent photograph of Orion anymore.
That is disgusting. I hate that fucker.
The era of virtue signalling is over, the age of idiot signalling is here
Considering how dumb half the country is, I’m not sure how the Department of Education could be doing much worse.
being a winter constellation in the northern hemisphere, he probably didn't understand that they disappear all summer, lol
Can’t wait until Trump is president and we can start reporting giant sea monster and Bigfoot sightings all over the country. I’m sure the media will give it the same attention and demand the federal government stop lying to us.
But he could use the Wickr app to hide his comms? Someone smart handles him, but was not on duty that day.
And he is one of the less stupid ones
Low bar
Expert levels of dumbness. No wonder election clinched defeat from the jaws of victory…
Please, please tell me he was corrected in a very public way.
Hogan is trying to be revelant here in MD. lol
This is funny, but so, so sad at the same time.
