I'm not a gambler, but there should be a thing on those gambling sites on whether this is about extraterrestrial life or mexicans

According to Polymarket, there's a 16% chance US will confirm aliens exist: https://polymarket.com/event/will-the-us-confirm-that-aliens...

It's just going to be illegal.aliens.gov :(

https://x.com/dhsgov/status/2034000845503693180?s=46 There is this promotional campaign on-going, it could be related https://www.dhs.gov/cbphome It seems to be an incentive for voluntarily departure

That thing in the lake in the China poster, is that some AI nightmare hybrid between a Japanese Shinto shrine and a Chinese pagoda (EDIT: no, it seems to be real: https://img.visiontimes.com/2022/01/hangzhou-ge36163601_1920... - it's just the color that looks more like https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Itsukushima_Shrine_Torii_...)? And of course the Taj Mahal in the India poster only has one tower. But I wouldn't put it past the current administration if they really printed 100,000 of these low-effort AI slop posters. The designer probably got a boatload of money for them too, after all the extremely generous budget increase for ICE has to go somewhere...

Objectively, which is hard to say because I’m just obviously not in this position, but if I were in the United States legally and I’m looking at three options…

1. I take self-deportation offer. At Christmas it was $3000 a person, but usually $1000, a commercial plane ticket anywhere, and I can come back to the US upon following the legal method. I can say goodbye to people I can sell my things. I can do this on my own timeline within reason.

2. I’ve risk it and trying to invade ice for the next three years minimum. If Vance wins, I need to make it to at least 2032 without showing up on any radar. I’m careful and looking over my shoulder constantly and work is a never ending dread.

3. I am caught by ICE. I have absolutely no claim to stay in the US. I can sit in a detention center while an NGO funded lawyer tells me that I do. And in high likelihood, I am sent back with no money on a cargo jet and I’m banned from the United States forever. This happens at any moment.

Practically speaking, I just cannot picture taking option two which could be three at any time. The fact is, I would know without a doubt, unfair or not that I am here legally, that my state would apply in any European country as well. I cannot fathom how option one is not the best option. Perhaps I’m too risk adverse.

If it was about extraterrestrial life, there would be a massive insider trade and Polymarket would've climbed. It's been static for the past day.

What was that card game that supposedly predicted the outcome of the future? Was there revealing the presence of aliens in the deck? /s I remember reading shady sites in 00s, where the other side claimed that govts around the world will get along on this idea and with help of elaborated holograms hoax will tell populations that aliens are here among us/are about to invade. Here, in the mid-20s it's much cheaper to do…

Illuminati? That game was ripper. Good times…
