laeffy:pileofknives:derinthescarletpescatarian:opened-rootbeercan:prudencepaccard:axmxz: axmxz:makiruz:phoenixonwheels:queenofthefaces: Thank u @tiwaztyrsfist for context HSJDKFKGL Oh my god, the story’s real? i love how OP describes something straight out of Stephen King, and a bunch of people are like “yeah it’s one of them fake CIA towns”, like it’s just one of those things everyone but the OP knows about update: i started telling this story to my military brat husband, and he was like “oh like one of those fake special forces training towns?” ok are OP and I the only ones out of the loop?? apparently the FBI has a non-secret one of these: https://www.fbi.gov/services/training-academy/hogans-alley OP be like This is so much funnier from the POV of the staff“Sir, can’t I just show him my ID and tell him to leave?”“No, we can still salvage this. Put on the McDonald’s uniform.” Let’s do Dashcon 2 at the Undisclosed CIA Plausibly Deniable La Quinta Inn and Convention Center Y’all okay I went down a rabbit hole trying to find this place when I first saw this post a few months ago and couldn’t find anything, but I went down that rabbit hole again and check this out:This is the east side of Piute Reservoir, just slightly southeast of the main body of water. I believe this is the security gate @thegaysociallyawkwardcat mentioned. If you follow it east on Google maps, you can see a few spots where it looks like other gate openings. No sign of the actual town further up though, my guess is it’s been censored on Google Maps.But here’s where it gets interesting! Here’s the same spot on Bing Maps:At first, you might think, “Oh, there’s cloud cover. That’s convenient.” Well…maybe a little too convenient. These clouds are photoshopped in. How do I know? Well, because if you zoom out a bit, here’s what the other clouds look like in the same area:Notice something different? They have shadows! The ones right above the security gate do not. Also, if you follow that security gate east on Bing Maps, there’s a couple of smaller roads that look like they got scratched out compared to the images on Google Maps. You also can’t see those other security gate openings like you can on Google. Also, what the fuck is this?This is directly west of the security gate area (about half a mile), right across the river that runs south of the reservoir. And just for fun, here’s another couple of spots in the area that are fucky:Left and right side of one of the nearby roads on Google Street View. A little hard to tell, but on the left side (top image), there are spots that have been smudged/blurred out near the mountains. I circled one spot that’s particularly noticeable, where some sort of structure has been blurred out.Another spot in that same area. Look how much more has been cut out on the Google Maps version (left) compared to Bing (right). No idea what all of that stuff is in the middle either.Obviously at this point we can safely assume this is one of those military towns, but…it is creeping me out to think how much of the satellite information we have might be intentionally fabricated. Who knows what else is being covered up and kept a secret. Anyway…y’all have a good day ☕️ -- source link
