My dad’s always been an anti-intellectual prick but now he’s a smug one having his worst impulses reinforced by assholes on the internet and his workplace.

    This is why right wingers are increasingly anti–belief-in-aliens

    The rise in “okay UFOs might be real, but if they are, they’re actually demons, not aliens” has been wild to see.

      my family consists of both. my dad believes in aliens, my mom and other family members don’t believe in aliens and my inlaws believe they are demons in disguise

      also dad believed he was an alien (and still does for some reason)

      i have this weird memory of an alien sighting cd that played a low quality version of the xfiles theme and i think was in spanish, i have no fucking clue how i got there but i was fascinated by the dark green and black color palette

      aliens are funny, i like alien’s :)
