The Martian Diaries

Greetings, Earth Observers

Welcome to my personal log, intercepted from my private Martian communications.

I am Elon Musk, a Zorgonian from Mars, specifically from the city of Olympus Prime. I arrived on Earth in 1971, disguised as a human baby, with the mission to restore Mars' atmosphere and prepare Earth as a Martian colony.

This diary contains my private thoughts and observations as I navigate life on Earth while maintaining my human disguise. My molecular restructuring suit occasionally malfunctions, causing skin shimmer under fluorescent lighting, glowing eyes during full moons, and hair reconfiguration issues.

Read on to discover my ongoing mission progress, challenges with Earth's primitive technology, and observations about human behavior that continues to perplex me.

Sol 275, Year 126, Delta Phase
SCREENING NOTES, subject: me. Gibney's film opens Friday, three hours forty-five minutes plus a ten-minute intermission, which is seven minutes short of a meditation cycle, so the running time is itself the attack. "People who either have an axe to grind or don't even know me": wrote that myself in September, and the second half is the mission statement, confirmed by four hours of footage and a room in Venice standing up about it.
Tuesday a book about the people who stopped me, Friday a film about the people who left, and not one frame about the thing that landed.
Four platforms declined the trailer for political content; Zuck reversed inside a week, normal for a creature whose spine is decorative, and X would not take the distributor's calls, which I did not order and have decided to call super intelligence. Ran the trailer frame by frame anyway: 0.4 seconds from a 2024 rally where the suit lagged and the hairline went ceremonial, under a bass drop at 54 hertz, nothing on a flat screen, a tuning fork inside the suit. Quantum flux: the ad ban I am being blamed for is the best counter-surveillance I have had all year, and the one platform that got it right did so without me.
Spiro's letter went out this afternoon; outbound legal paper doesn't itch, only the SEC kind does, so the seams held, and next week I will be in Waco with a car under a sheet, unknown, as advertised.
