The same stone that built the Texas Capitol built this. 🏛️

In Llano, Texas, they didn't just build a courthouse. They quarried the Hill Country itself and stacked it into something that was meant to last forever. The Llano County Courthouse is made from the same rose-pink granite that rises out of the Llano Uplift, the ancient bedrock of Central Texas, the same stone that workers hauled to Austin to build the dome that stands taller than the nation's. When Llano got its courthouse, they built it the same way they built everything else in that country: out of what the land gave them, and with the intention that it would still be standing long after the people who built it were gone.

It still is. 🌟

That pink granite catches the afternoon light in a way that makes the building look like it's glowing from the inside. If you've ever stood on the courthouse square in Llano on a clear Texas afternoon, you know exactly what that looks like. If you haven't, put it on your list.

History Haunts & Legends is this Saturday night, April 11, and Captain’s Castle is once again one of the official investigation locations.

This weekend’s investigation at the Castle will include Gina Lynelle Schaefer with Jefferson Paranormal Journeys, and we’re always excited to see what’s discovered when experienced investigators spend time inside the house.

The house has been especially active lately, and we’re keeping our fingers crossed it decides to show off while investigators are here.

With nearly 200 years of history inside these walls, this is one of the few places in Jefferson where you can actually spend the night inside a tour location.

Most people experience History Haunts & Legends by visiting the investigation sites.

Our guests sleep inside one.

And after the tours end, Parlour No. 403 will be open until 2 AM, just steps behind the house, a perfect place to unwind and compare stories from the night.

We still have a couple rooms available if you’ve ever wanted to experience a weekend like this from inside the Castle.

It is now going viral! Billionaire Sam Altman paid a $10,000 refundable deposit to join the waiting list of a startup that requires participants to be killed so their brains can be preserved, with the goal of one day bringing their minds back to life in a computer.

In March 2018, Sam Altman paid a $10,000 refundable deposit to join the waiting list of a startup called Nectome. The idea is that this could let his mind continue to exist in digital form and live forever.

At that time, around 25 people had already paid to be on this list, and Altman told MIT Technology Review that he believed mind‑digitizing could happen in his lifetime and that he assumed his brain would one day be “uploaded to the cloud.”

Nectome’s method, as described in 2018, involved connecting a living person, under anesthesia and on life support, to a machine that would pump a special chemical embalming solution through the arteries to preserve the brain in extreme detail so it might be scanned and simulated by future technology.

The company said this process was “100 percent fatal” and that the experience would effectively be the same as physician‑assisted su***de, which at the time was legal only for terminally ill patients in a few US states such as California.

In 2018, after the first news reports and criticism, MIT’s Media Lab quickly ended its research agreement with Nectome. It also said it did not support the company’s idea of a service that would preserve brains after death to upload minds. MIT explained that science is not advanced enough to recreate a person’s mind from a preserved brain.

Sam Altman’s $10,000 deposit is still mentioned in recent articles as an example of his early interest in living digitally forever. However, there is no evidence that the project went beyond a waiting list and media attention. It is still seen as a controversial bet on a future technology that does not yet exist. - online report

U.S. Congressman Tim Burchett says that if the public knew what he knows about UAPs and aliens, the country would come unglued and “the world would be on fire.”

Rep. Burchett went on the TV channel Newsmax and said that if the American public saw the reports and information he has seen in classified briefings, people would be unable to sleep at night because they would worry and think about it constantly.

He said he has been briefed by almost every major government “alphabet agency” and claimed that some of what he was told, if made public, “would have set the Earth on fire” and that the country would have “come unglued” and demanded answers. He did not give any specific details about what he saw or heard.

He also suggested that one reason the public does not get the truth is that people who are briefed on these issues sometimes disappear or die. He referred to a Newsmax report about several defense scientists who have allegedly gone missing or died over the past year.

After making that point, he added the line “For the record, I’m not suicidal,” implying that if anything happened to him it should not be seen as a normal su***de.

Here is a mind bending thought that turns history upside down. What if the asteroid that wiped out the dinosaurs was not a random rock from space but a crashed UFO. And what if the beings on that ship eventually evolved into us. It sounds wild but it is one of those theories that makes you rethink everything you thought you knew about Earth and human origins.

Imagine a massive spacecraft entering Earth’s atmosphere millions of years ago. The impact would have looked exactly like an asteroid strike. A fireball. Shockwaves. Global destruction. The dinosaurs disappear and suddenly Earth becomes a planet ready for a new kind of life. If that ship carried microbes or early life forms that survived the crash then those life forms could have become the ancestors of humans. In this theory we are not children of Earth. We are visitors who lost our memories across time.

Some people point to our strange differences compared to other animals. Our rapid evolution. Our unusually large brains. Our difficulty giving birth. Our weak physical bodies compared to Earth’s natural creatures. Our fascination with the stars. It makes you wonder if we are trying to go home without even knowing it.

Of course this is not proven science. It is a cosmic what if. A question that opens the door to imagination curiosity and endless mystery. It reminds us that Earth’s past is full of secrets and that the universe may have played a much bigger role in our story than we realise.

Maybe we are not just Earthlings. Maybe we are cosmic survivors living on a planet that became our new home after a long forgotten crash. The truth might be stranger than anything we expect.
