        Oh that too.

        For context, the Grox are a species in Spore, the evolution simulator from 2008, made by Maxis (which got bought by EA).

        In there, the Grox are an aggressive species, which control a vast empire around the Milky Way’s core, and can only live on T-0 planets. In Spore, planets have a “terraforming score” of T0, T1, T2, up to T3.

        A T0 is unlivable and is too hot, cold, humid, or dry, too thick or thing an atmosphere. It has no species.

        T1 or T2 is what Earth has in the game. T3 is the “perfect” world. You can terraform a planet to T3 using the Staff of Life, which you get at the Milky Way’s Core.


        So, by proxy, I’m already calling Musk’s Grok a ruination of the world.
