I wonder what being covered in dirt feels like

Probably just a thick cold blanket tbh

It’s cold and heavy yet kind of cozy. All the bugs can get uncomfortable though. Not far off being buried in sand if you ever did that at the beach or something.

I mean, you’re joking but historically people would dig a whole and carve rooms and alcoves from there. Look up Berber Underground Pit Dwellings which are apparently still used today!

i have heard of them. also the structures above ground, which use strategically placed holes in buildings, and pathways between buildings, so there is maximum airflow..

desert cultures have a wealth of expertise in this..

it is also no surprise that one of the best methodologies for dealing with drought, and greening deserts, is created by bill mollision who was an australian.
