Well, shoot...I didn't know about that, but I looked it up when I saw the meme, and voila!
Apparently, in 1891, Louis Gatthman of Chicago, IL patented a new weather manipulation technique called "cloud seeding" [which many of y'all are likely familiar with], called "Method of Producing Rainfall".
Gatthman found his method of producing rainfall is best done by the sudden and rapid evaporation in the upper atmosphere by the evaporation of varuous highly compressed gasses, but said, "the evaporation consequent upon the releaase of liquefied carbonic acid gas is thought to be the most efficient."
He stated in his patent, "In accordance, therefore, with my invention liquefied carbonic-acid gas is liberated in the upper regions of the atmosphere and spread out in a sheet of vapor of an extremely low temperature and produce a cloud."
He went on to say, "the surrounding atmosphere will be chilled by its proximity to the cold vapor and the moisture in the atmosphere will be condensed thereby. The condensation takes place in large quantities and with great rapidity, so that a cloud is formed that will precipitate a rain-fall upon the earth."
Pretty neat-o for a dude in the 19th century to be even bothered with inventing a method of controlling the weather in some aspects. I'm personally not a fan of weather manipulation, but I'd be lying if I said I didn't find this absolutely fascinating!
And before y'all go keyboard warrior on me, with, "but Sara, they can't "control" the weather; they can only manipulate and influence the weather," let's get the definition of "control" settled.
Control: 1) to exercise restraining or directing influence over, and 2) to have power over
I reckon manipulating the weather would fall under "directing influence over" the weather. So leave that sentiment for a different post, y'all.

If these are "deepfakes" then I'm a monkey's uncle! Hahahahaha! I WISH they were deepfakes and that our president wasn't a walking gaffe factory! 😅😂😂😂
Cringe Jean-Pierre is a genuinely fantastic liar. I have no clue how she has such an easy time delivering her binder of lies to the American people. I truly miss the days of Kayleigh McEneny with her well-stocked truths binder that she used daily to dismantle the utterances of the despicable lying Lefties.
Don't believe your lying eyes, folks!
Obummer needing to take Biden's hand in his and lead him offstage the other day must've been a trick of the light!
Biden freezing with his hand extended to shake the air's hand? Deepfake!
If you've seen Biden pop a squat like he was taking a poop with a blank expression on his face before stiffy being escorted away before shaking the hands of WWII veterans, at a D-Day event, leaving France's Macron to swiftly run around and shake all their hands with an apologetic expression? Deepfake, y'all!
...
Resident Biden was caught saying something bizarre to French President Macron, on a hot mic, at the recent D-Day event.
While he walked into the ceremony with Macron and their First Ladies, he can be heard on video saying, “My advance team said I gotta leave, be the first one to leave, because I hold people up.”
Macron did not respond, continued heading toward the event, and then was left to run around shaking the WWII veterans hands after Sleepy Joe and DOCTOR Jill swiftly took off under rather strange circumstances.
Directly before he was whisked away by his wife, Biden stiffly appeared to pop a geriatric squat as though he was having the issues similar to those of a non-potty-trained toddler.
Apparently, it was, in fact, the plan the whole time to leave the visibly shocked French President to do the American President's duty to run around greeting and shaking the hands of the brave American soldiers who fought the Nazis on D-Day.
Silly us! Here, we thought it was due to an all-to-common ...

After losing 100lbs, I maintained it until my best friend died in July, and have gained a substantial amount of weight since then...
Well, I'm officially back on the fitness wagon! I started this Sunday, and have already lost an inch or two on every body part and lost 3lbs! 🙃
I stopped living and caring about myself when Mallory died. I don't know why, but it's way past time for that to end.

I wish there was a way to make my notifications contain only things like likes, comments, tags, tips, etc, and not every post from every single person in every community that I follow...it's good that there is a way to filter that stuff out, but y'all need to make it an option that's more permanent..
It's a lot like these booby clouds...you see it and think it's really frickin awesome, even making you smile in delight...however, when you look away for a few seconds, it's gone and the sky is back to its usual self.
If anyone knows how to make that stick, please let me know because I seemed to have tried everything and they just keep switching back.
That, and my newsfeed never shows recent posts in chronological order...it just shows posts from Steven Crowder, Dan Bongino, Viva Frei, and a few other notable public figures...I'd love to fix that too.
Thanks,
