       I'm sorry, the thought that ball lighting might be real and might come in your house is terrifying. Please consider the deadly ball of energy that bounces and hovers. No thank you.

       @futurebird I have seen it. West texas prairie during a particularly nasty dust storm (haboob). A tornadic thunderstorm was on its heels. Plenty of static electricity about. It bounced around the living room of the trailer we lived in at the time. Blue. About 5" in diameter. Wildest thing I have ever seen.

       @futurebird I don't know. Something is definitely going to kill me at some point, and it will probably be unpleasant when it does, whatever it is. It could at least be a bizarre and ancient mystery???

       @futurebird Just think of it as a Silksong mini boss. You'll know exactly what to do by, oh, the 40th time of so.

       @futurebird @TheEffekt Okay, just finding out now that the video is an animation. (FAKE.)Still, no thanks.

       @futurebird It's wild that there have been so many sightings and yet we've only gotten like... one plausible video recording. Understandable (it's rare, unpredictable, and ephemeral!) but frustrating.I'm *dying* to know what causes it.

       @TheJen @futurebird My grandmother told us about ball lightning bouncing around in the very same room we were sitting in when she told us, pointing to all the places it bounced. That was in the Adirondack Mountains of New York State. Intriguing and terrifying at the same time. But I've never seen it myself.

       @MedeaVanamonde @futurebird An elderly lady in NC told me about a time when her house had one of those old style telephones with a separate ear horn on a cord, and mouth horn attached to the box on the wall. Lightning struck the line and shot directly out the mouth horn and across the kitchen, hitting the stove. It missed the people by inches; the spot where it hit the iron stove welded it shut.

       @futurebird The book of that name by Cixin Liu is extremely good, in case you haven't read it.
