Paint addicted poet, playful philosopher artist on bugs. (Butterflies for preference.) 🛺 I love oddness and snippets, my mind was born as a rat run, now branching out into highways & sacred places. Often to be found hanging out in or near reality.

Nope. Surface of Mars is full of irradiated perchlorates - poisonous to humans. The atmosphere of the planet is unbreathable. So humans can't touch the surface and the air is unbreathable. Everything needed to live there has to be imported. Not gonna happen and Musk must know this. It's a fantasy.

I'm coming back to painting.... did hardly any last year! And spending more time in nature. Things are such a mess that I'm like - how is me knowing every little detail actually helping anything?

Before "wanna Netflix and chill?" a euphemism for suggesting sex was "would you like to come up and see my etchings?" Some even older euphemisms for sex (and year of origin) were "do a bit of giblet pie" (1892), "dance the blanket hornpipe" (1823), and "give one's arse a salad" (1661)

I've wanted to do it for ages, but couldn't quite prise myself away. So glad I have.

I think it's both. I mean, the whole world situation is dire, in so many ways. Geopolitically, climate change, conflicts, madmen in charge, runaway neoliberalism, eco system degredation speeding up, radicalisation/division etc. AND the G website and some of the journalism....
