Earlier today, I was asked to comment on the current state of disaster preparedness in the United States.
That was already a fraught question, even prior present chaos, but then I saw today's headlines. 🫠
"Top Disaster Response Official Claims He Teleported to a Waffle House"
Sitting on a park bench in a sunny day years back, doing the ham radio hobby, I had a vertical antenna, a few radials tossed out on the lawn.
Curious guy walks up and asks me about it. I say how the electromagnetic waves go out from the antenna.
But the guy stares at the antenna with these wild sketchaboo eyes, and then he suddenly blurts out,
"I can see the waves!"
Someone like that guy!
That's the teleporter who's in change of FEMA response.
@murodegrizeco Of course you can see the waves. Everybody can. Can't you? 🤔
I like watching the waves flowing out of my 9el 2m yagi when pumping 160W toward NZ when there's an Es opening. 🤭 @weatherwest
multiple...that's the problem. Multiple. One, I can go for, but multiple? hmmmm.
They all have that fun combo of insanity and lack of self awareness, arrogance or maybe just being stupid enough to talk about it.
I have known people this crazy, who have pretty normal lives and just 'believe in' an assortment of conspiracy theories etc. However, they usually realise that their beliefs are odd, so that they generally don't talk about them publicly.
@GutterPoetry one wonders how he thought revealing that would go?
"Wow, that's amazing Gregg. You're just fantastic as we've always thought you were!"
His mother probably always said that to him, no matter what. #MAGAwomen
@weatherwest
Thank goodness he teleported horizontally! If you ever find yourself randomly teleporting 50 miles, don't go vertical.
Unless you have a parachute.
Or a shovel.
Another tool in the cabinet of fools.
Says what?
@klefstadmyr @weatherwest Absolutely. I always get randomly teleported places.
Jokes aside, is that a serious question?
