#earth ship homes

[hometoursandotherstuff]

The Atlantis is the fanciest Earth Ship I've ever seen. For one, it's turquoise. Wow, it looks like there's nothing around it for miles, but supposedly it's in an Earthship Community in Tres Piedras, New Mexico. 2bds, 2ba, $900K.

Interesting that the walls are painted, usually they're natural adobe and earthy tones. It has the typical long "hall" of plants in the entrance and along the side.

There's always a garden along the outer wall of the home.

This one has a stone and tile fireplace. Look at the hole in the wall. I wonder why it has shutters.

This is a relatively small earth ship. The cans, bottles, or whatever they used in the walls look jewel-like. For an earth ship, this is kind of a classy dining area.

The kitchen is small and looks sort of standard, except for the architectural salvage upper cabinets.

The primary bedroom is more of a sleeping nook and is separated by curtains.

The covered patio has a swing.

Must be very dark here at night.

They have a seating area in the corner, but I wouldn't call this a beautiful view. Almost $1M. I don't know if it's worth it.

cheers to the future of humanity (and the future of us)

[ID: Digital illustration in color of Vash and Wolfwood from Trigun. The illustration takes place during the ship/home arc, specifically chapter 21. At the center, Vash is grabbing Wolfwood by the collar and pulls him into a kiss in the middle of a celebration. The pair is colored in vibrant warm hues while their surroundings are colored in cooler colors like green and teals. Luida, Brad, Meryl, and Milly are shown amongst the crowd, occupied in the celebrations as Vash and Wolfwood share a moment by themselves at the center. END ID]

[bookwyrminspiration]

imagine being one of the other eridians when ryland and rocky got back?? just like. we sent these guys off into space desperately looking for a cure to our dying sun like 50 years ago and they were only supposed to take 6 years, but they haven't come back yet, and then an alien spaceship lands on your planet?? and one of the 23 guys you sent into space for the first time ever is like hey guys. everyone else died but I found this alien because it turns out not only are aliens real but they're real friendly. also we figured out how to save our worlds. and then this alien just lives on your planet now. like hello???

NO SHIPS (but take it as you will 😋)

To me, reading is the biggest, safest, greatest loveliest escape from this sometimes so cruel and awful life.

There is honestly nothing purer than starting a new story, and knowing it will save you exactly the way you need to be saved right then.

Well, I'm sad to report that earth ships are having a bad year. So many on the market, it looks like the concept has failed, when once they were all the rage. So, here's another one for sale. It was cobbled together in 2002 in Tres Piedras, NM. Has 2bds, 1ba, and looks a little neglected. They're asking $400K, but Zillow thinks it's worth $376K. Let's look around.

It has the standard entrance w/the little garden along the hallway, and the garden is on the small side.

Off to the right is a living room with a round garden separating it from the kitchen.

The kitchen isn't too bad. But, I'd want a bigger fridge so I wouldn't have to keep running to the store.

And, there's a little banquette and built-in table.

This home has a second level, which is something I've never seen in an earth ship. Note the cracked step. There are bottles decorating the stairs and wall.

Curved wall with glass block trim.

Bedroom #1 has a garden. It needs some TLC.

Bd. #2 looks like it was a studio.

And, this is the slightly icky bath. I could never understand how these porous clay things hold water and how you clean them.

Looks like a regular toilet, not a compostable.

These stairs on the exterior lead up to the roof and an outdoor area.

It appears to be larger than what's shown in the photos.

This is also different. I've never seen an earth ship buried under the earth. The lot is 1.28 acres. Smaller than most desert properties.

I don't know anything about this, but it looks smaller and less elaborate than others I've seen.

Made a new oc for a new little personal project that I will never fully explain or touch but everyone meet the little alien bunny princess shes from the moon and is a little lost

I know “Oblivion is better than Skyrim” is not a hot take to have but in my opinion that includes the doofy graphics too. I honestly prefer the look of Oblivion— yes I’m biased because I grew up with games from this & the Morrowind era. Oblivion is colorful and fun and Skyrim is grey concrete. The brutalism of the TES franchise if you will.

[crimsongrimoire]

oh yeah uh. honkai update: game still thinks it's trying to win over a nonbeliever. I Guess

[jonny-b-meowborn]

Okay I've been thinking about the lil cute therian fic I've been writing, and I think I know how I wanna end it and it's like. Very much self indulgent not really accurate to the mechanisms canon and way too cute but the thing is I can do whatever I want forever so I think Im gonna do it (I'm only like idk 1/3 done tho so don't get too excited fjdnfjndn)

Fallen AU - Planet Shroob

Here is the barren wasteland all the Earthlings are dropped off at. The Shroobs basically told them “good luck” and never looked back.

This is Planet Shroob. It is without a moon and the 7th planet away from the Xivis Star. The planet is outside the warmth zone the Star provides; life was able to exist since the Xivis Star was brighter and hotter so many years ago. Now, many life processes exist independent of the Xivis Star like chemotrophs taking advantage of chemical compounds to survive. Planet Sunnycide is just inbetween the life zone (basically land-locked).

There are three sides to the planet. The first is the bottom which is the safest and served as the Shroobs’ Castle for centuries. Countless bloody wars were fought over the fertile farmland at the bottom. When the Shroobs United under one leader, the fighting stopped. There is still some fertile soil left, so if you get shoved off here you’re in good hands. Most likely you can survive here for generations.

The sides are the Jade Ocean. It was once a vast and vibrant ocean made of fresh Vim. Having been completely drained, all that remains is the treacherous ocean floor. If you land here, chances are you’re very dead. No coming back from that.

On the top is a wide variety of climates. The perimeter has the Veenoria Beach which is pretty safe with soft and compact sand. It is a beautiful coral color. Any Earthlings that land here have a 99.99% survival rate (this is where the Baby Bros land). But there’s not much soil to grow stuff nor creatures to hunt. Heading up to the top is dangerous. Heading to the bottom means crossing the Jade Ocean.

If you go further top, you’re in the Mycotoxia Dunes. While sorta safe for landing, it is very dangerous yet gorgeous. Further in is the Xivis Mountain Range; if you land there you are extremely dead. That is since the ground is rocky and there are spikes everywhere (Fawful lands at the edge where the Veenoria Beach intersects the desert; he still should be dead yet he isn’t).

Further up you have Mountain Amanita. It is named after the Shroob Goddess who the Shroobs respect as the being who created them. It is the tallest mountain on the planet, the peak rises hundreds of feet above the heavens. It is at the very top of the planet. If you travel there, you can survey space.

Moving on, you have the Fungal Forest and Valley. While extremely fertile soil, it is dangerous thanks to its high density of toxic plants and mysterious predators in search for Earthlings to hunt. Further out is the Clawden Craters - these are not as deep as trenches in Jade Ocean, but are still dangerous.

Description for each terrain from drawing:

Mycotoxia Dunes

Pink sand

Ancient Shroob Runes

Hasn’t rained in centuries

Covered in dust storms

Crystal Caves

Crystals float upwards

Has rich but rare oasises

Saccharomyces Flatlands

Violet soil, very soft

Overused soil is gray

Used to be farming land that fed the Shroobs for millennia

Usually rains

Lots of monsters

Safest part of planet

Everyone fought over this for centuries

Fungal Forest/Valley

Fertile soil and toxic plants

Shroobigos wander here

Trees as tall as some mountains

Lots of biodiversity

Blue flowing trees

Rain flows upwards, thunderstorms

Mountain Amanita

Tallest mountain on planet

Peak rises above atmosphere

Has an observatory

Coldest spot on planet

Xivis Mountain Range

Site for abandoned bases

Valley is hot whole peaks are cool

Furious winds - powerful storms are common

Veenoria Beach

Halfway point between top and bottom half of planet

Soft and compact sand

Coral sand

Pretty safe yet dry

Clawden Craters

Deep chasms

Underground temples and forests

Incredibly hot and humid

Has magma flowing

Jade Oceans

Dried out

Trenches lead to planet’s core

Dry and hot

Full of toxic sludge

Having fast travel on the planet would be pretty nice.

As the Shroobs left their dying homeworld, some nature has returned. Baby Mario and co. (Baby Luigi, Stuffwell, Fawful) encounter abandoned villages, temples, towns, bases, and cities now overgrown with vegetation. There are also rival Earthlings trying to survive. If it’s not the planet or Shroob creatures going after Baby Mario and co, it’s Earthlings fighting for resources/power and screwing others over. Some hotspots are the Flatlands and Clawden Craters. Others want Mt. Amanita. There’s also abandoned Shroob tech everywhere.

It is a shitshow.
