"You know what I love most about Mars? They still dream. We gave up. They're an entire culture dedicated to a common goal, working together as one to turn a lifeless rock into a garden. We had a garden and we paved it."

During this time, the fantasy genre is probably going to boom because everyone wants to escape back into the nature we helped to destroy. A fantasy that was once reality, but now there is no escaping the reality of being stuck in the fantasy.

A patch of weeds in a field: Amazing, beautiful, worth preserving.

Paving over that patch to build a skyscraper full of hydroponic gardens, trellises full of beautiful and edible plants, and mixed residential and commercial spaces: gross, dystopian, inhumane.

About how it goes when the A/C repairman shows up at the office here. The guy has the grace of a wet fart at thanksgiving dinner.

The best evidence that there's an ocean at Europa was gathered by NASA's Galileo spacecraft, which orbited Jupiter from 1995 to 2003.
Scientists think Europa has a salty ocean beneath its icy crust with about twice as much water than all of Earth's oceans combined
