I picked up this book at a Scholastic Book Fair when I was a kid and read it over and over until the pages wore out. My interest in monsters began at a very young age, and I'm thankful to have always had resources like that book fair to help indulge it.

What's a #paranormal hill that you're willing to die on? Mine is that the nature of experiential evidence is such that it is unreasonable to expect anyone to find the same meaning in our experiences as we do. No one is obligated to believe any particular narrative without proof.

I had a dream visitation last night from a friend who passed away several years ago. He told me that he was okay, but also that we were okay. All of the regrets I held (he died unexpectedly) needed to be let go. I didn't realize how much I needed to hear that.

It's easy to become cynical in the #paranormal , especially with all of the BS spread by "big names" with even bigger follower counts, but let's get positive today. What's something that keeps you researching and investigating these subjects?

So, this was weird: I just watched a bright, white light travel east across the sky for 30+ seconds before gradually growing dimmer and then disappearing. Of course I didn't record it because I assumed it was a satellite or something, at least until it disappeared. #ufosighting

If you're actually interested in #UFOs and what happens to the people who see them, please stop referring witnesses to MUFON. All that does is ensure that they are interrogated by someone who will make certain their experience goes unheard. Secrecy is anathema to discovery.

#ufotwitter is debating whether or not to believe experiencers, but I don't think that's the right approach. I treat witnesses as though their experience is authentic unless I have evidence to the contrary, but even assuming that's true, I still don't know what to believe.

I second this. I'd also like for folks to recognize that men can be abused by both men and women, and that dismissing such abuse reinforces patriarchal archetypes and toxic masculinity by forcing us to hide our emotions. So like, please don't make fun of male victims of abuse.

Years ago I was physically abused in a relationship. That's a big part of why it was so devastating for me to be falsely accused of misogyny in 2020. It brought back all the old feelings of anxiety and helplessness. We have got to normalize men being able to talk about abuse.
