1961 Mercury Meteor

It seemed like all of the automotive brands were going for space-themed nameplates during the 1960s. The US was on its way to visiting the moon and people were excited. But a space-named car doesn’t necessarily translate into performance, and the Meteor was evidence of just that. The car just lacked the performance features that you’d expect from a car like this and the heavy curb weight didn’t help things out. Mercury was innovating as time went on, but the Meteor was a definite dud for the company.

The Meteor was a valiant effort for the company to create a memorable car, but the lack of necessary performance and reliability left many owners disgruntled. You’ll probably seldom see a Meteor on the road anymore and for good reason. Most of these cars have ended up rusted away and in junkyards around the country. There are just better options you can choose from that will last longer and offer more bang for the buck.

Something new about Three lights and their girlfriends.

Fkng artblock. I’ve taken decision, that I’ll ignore all dumb political news. My mental health now is a damn skanky boot with no unbroken parts. Since 24 feb 2022 I’ve been challenging my nervous system by panic attacks, infinite anxiety and scare.

My house is safe, but every single day i worry about “what if the worst thing is happen?” Ah, God… I’m so tired of this.

And again, like in 2019, being in awful depression after my the worst professional fuck-ups, I resume drawing. Drawing is always my sanctuary, my rescue.

Somewhere in AU, in Tokyo, once upon a time there lived 3 handsome guys, they fell in love with 3 wonderful girls…

Just sketches, mb I”ll make something else.

Super funny that Mercury’s name is now just out there for being abnormally strong at all costs. This would normally please them, but. The circumstances aren’t pretty.

EDIT: Mercury is stationed direct on Jan 1st, 2024. The source I used which stated it was in retrograde until the 18th had a typo.

EDIT: Fixed the zodiac signs for the full moons using a new source.
