Elon Musk wants a Texas compound filled with women he will breed with to preserve his superior genes.

Imagine watching Fury Road and thinking Immortan Joe is the hero.

Imagine watching Total Recall and thinking Vilos Cohaagen is the hero.
@Crispius @pluralistic "Give dees peeple air!"

@Lazarou @Crispius @pluralistic Musk would 100% restrict air supply to enforce his whims.

Or even just to make a buck.

The kind of guy who'd increase the nitrogen content while reducing the oxygen content to save a few cents.

@mbybee @Crispius @pluralistic he could be bored one day and just switch off 'Sector Four' or something, not that anybody useful would follow him to Mars.....
@Lazarou @mbybee @Crispius @pluralistic now you have me thinking about The hitchhiker's guide and the ship's captain who enjoyed taking baths
@allpoints @mbybee @Crispius @pluralistic lol, I see so many 'B Ark' people in charge these days....
The joke there is, though, that the people that put them on the B Ark died from a disease transmitted by unwashed telephones. Its a remider that you cant simply whisk your problems away, down that path too lies danger.
@errant I think it's a joke, and I love it. But not as a reminder.

@errant Ah, the quaint science fiction ideas of the past, where a full third of everyone, faced with existential threat to their planet, united to act toward a common goal

(now which third was i talking about, mahahaha)
