After writing about the subject of alien disclosure I was flooded with social media videos.
I decided to share the pain by sending SOME of this to Coleman Watts. So what did he do? He made an episode of Think This Through... and even contacted the Feds himself!

Day 26 of SKEPTICISM MONTH on @aiptcomics.com is ready! For UFO DISCLOSURE! Any day now ... right? It's happening in @jamesthefourth.bsky.social & @martinsimmonds.bsky.social's "Department of Truth" #28, but @twkskeptic.bsky.social says don't hold your breath for the real thing. @imagecomics.com
Is UFO disclosure really imminent?
Or do we have to settle for the fictional version in 'Department of Truth' #28?
