Perhaps you’re struggling with your mental health? This could certainly be a project to follow…Here comes another project I have fortunately had plenty of opportunity to get to know thanks them being a member of the Aussie Alpha Collective, and a product of Medy Labs (the company behind NFT Brisvegas). Between the personal interaction and the project’s goal to combine comedy and community, it was a no-brainer to get behind the ‘Outback Martians’.One of my Outback Martians, #337Another project coming from the Sunshine State, the Outback Martians are built around the adage that ‘laughter is the best medicine’. With the founding team including a couple veterans, there is a foundational understanding of the detrimental effects that mental health can have, so that is the core issue that the project sets out to address. As part of this initiative, they have selected the Black Dog Institute and Legacy as charities to donate to, regarding mental health and veteran support respectively. Additionally, they already have a strong community that are ready and willing to support each other (and from what I’ve learned, have already made a strong impact on some lives). If you’ve been around the web 3.0 space for a while, I’m sure you’ve heard of P2E (play-to-earn) gaming. As part of the comedy facet of the project, the Outback Martians plan to introduce ‘Laugh-to-Earn’, through which holders would be rewarded for regularly engaging with events. Events are slated to occur both in the metaverse and at an IRL OM comedy venue. At this point I have yet to even cover the lore behind the eponymous extraterrestrials that form the NFT collection, but that’s something I’ll leave you to discover in your own research. So whether you’re someone who loves a good laugh or someone who might need a mental hand up, the Outback Martians are certainly a project to follow along with. You can learn more from their website.If you like what you read, go ahead and follow me here, or check out my Twitter and DeSo profiles to stay up to date with what projects I explore. ## Publication Information - [RealAqua](https://paragraph.com/@realaqua/): Publication homepage - [All Posts](https://paragraph.com/@realaqua/): More posts from this publication - [RSS Feed](https://api.paragraph.com/blogs/rss/@realaqua): Subscribe to updates - [Twitter](https://twitter.com/aquathickshell): Follow on Twitter
