We all know that Elon Musk
has plans to colonise Mars.
Quite how the red planet’s rocks,
valleys, mountains and hills
will react to this coming
event
is anybody’s guess,
but it probably won’t end well
for them.
The best they can hope for
is a wildly dysfunctional
democracy
and perhaps the introduction
of some Victorian sport to
divert their attention
from the planet’s plundering.
We all know that Elon Musk
wants to colonise Mars.
What most people don’t know
is that what he is planning on
establishing –
is an ant colony.
He’s a man with big ideas,
the biggest of which being,
‘Can I convince people
that everything techy was my
idea?’
His second biggest idea,
and his first and only
original one,
is the dream of setting up an ant
colony.
On Mars.
His epiphany arrived while he
was listening to
a cover version of Bowie’s ‘Life
on Mars’,
by, of all people, Adam and the
Ants.
But I guess that’s just how
genius works, eh?
