NASA's "Perseverance" Mars rover officially landed on the red planet's surface. It will begin a two-year mission of searching for ancient microbial life on the planet as well as some test runs for techonology that could later pave the way for humans to colonize Mars.

When it landed, it sent out a picture of its "forever home," the celestial body itself.



This is a momentous occasion in humanity's curiosity about space.

Though the earthbound humans of Twitter couldn't resist memeing the heck out of the rover's landing.





The memes ranged from Ted Cruz returning from Mexico in disgrace to Bernie Sanders in his chair, to little green men.

It's astounding how creative the internet can be.





There are several ways the mission helps pave the way for future human expeditions to Mars and demonstrates technologies that may be used in those endeavours," reads the Mars Rover's official website.

"These include testing a method for producing oxygen from the Martian atmosphere, identifying other resources (such as subsurface water), improving landing techniques, and characterizing weather, dust, and other potential environmental conditions that could affect future astronauts living and working on Mars."






The rover itself is equipped with more audio and visual equipment than just the two shots we were shown on Twitter. If we find anything new and exciting, we will surely get the photos faster than anything else.

And Twitter will surely meme them.

Kirk died after an unidentified gunman shot him in the neck as he—ironically enough—mocked victims of gun violence at an event in Utah Valley State University. Kirk's murder has galvanized the far-right, with President Donald Trump and his surrogates claiming without evidence that rhetoric from Democrats is responsible for Kirk's death.

TikToker Hilariously Calls Out Target After Champion Pants Feature Awkwardly-Placed Front Pleat

Sometimes you can just tell when something was designed *for* women, but was not actually designed *by* women.

Take, for instance, the new pleated pants available at Target from the Champion clothing line. While there's nothing wrong with pleated pants and they certainly have a suitable spot in the workplace, the latest rendition of Champion pleated pants are, shall we say, NSFW.

Woman Goes Viral After Revealing How Her Obsession With Matcha Landed Her In The Hospital

Let's be honest: Too much of anything isn't good for us. It's all about the balance!

But the media and social media trends have taught us that certain things are really good for us, encouraging us to be like the "very mindful and very demure" girls and take care of ourselves. One such example is drinking more matcha, especially if you really like coffee or think you have a caffeine addiction.
