wow. i've been lamenting the state of leftist politics for years now, and you just gave me a brand new perspective. great food for thought. thanks for sharing. seems hopeless sometimes but you've definitely made a difference to me today.

in the sense that you're asking, no. but i don't think the Tangier or East Village you're imagining ever existed. Things get heavily romanticized in retrospect, embellished by writers or simply expanded in wishful thinking by readers. Neither of us were there during the "heyday" so to speak, so...

@stukovthetuna thanks for sharing man, sounds like a great formative experience, and you learned the most important lesson of all; when to leave. its been the #1 thing I've learned travelling, and applies to jobs, houses, girlfriends, family, anything. great info and painted a good picture for...

scratch that ^^^^^^ after looking at some mugshots, hilariously enough this is somewhat common, possibly an ancestral marking of the Florida scumfuck tribe

was the Florida tat over the eyebrow with the peninsula going down the side? if so I may know who this is.

shit like this gives travelers a bad name. not to mention you just incriminated yourself. it's lame enough to tweak and steal cars, but you're proud enough to tell the story on the internet? GTFO and come back when the speed wears off and you've got some common sense.

6 foot Matt Derrick butter statue?! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA i am sold

you're gonna wanna get to Thailand ASAP

true. if you hear voices, don't take my advice. but judging by the original post it sounds like good ol fashioned middle American depression to me.

drop the meds. the road IS your prescription. Id be depressed and om pills too if i was stuck in one place that I didn't wanna be.

yeah just use the flight aggregator apps, you can get one way flights as cheap as $150....I was on Kauai a few years ago and a guy I met there found a once in a lifetime flight for like $100. just keep looking at flights. if you're trying to leave within the next month or so you're probably not...

6 years sober here and couldn't be happier. I've never missed it a single time. life has been better without question. I've done every drink and drug under the sun and it turns out that sobriety is the best trip of them all

bummer. they tend to set them up at bottlenecks on purpose to force you through. good luck all. maybe this particular one will be nice. there's one I think near Yuma (?) with a light up "price is right" style counter for how many seizures they make. straight out of a 1980s dystopian future...

I would avoid those checkpoints at all costs, I've been detained, thrown in a holding cell, car torn apart, computers thrown into the pavement for nothing. literally nothing just driving thru. it's nothing but trouble, avoid ICE checkpoints at all costs. I'd drive hours out of the way just to...

good stuff. I'm long gone of course but thanks, filed away for future reference.

man, i say go for it. if you're smart and hesitant enough to be asking about it here before doing it, you're already ahead of the game. you probably are a bit naive, but we all were at one point or another. just be safe, keep your wits about you and walk out that door. there's some overwrought...

good idea and the color is right, but looks too small.

murder capital of the world right now. sounds like what you are going for? lemme ask you something though.....i see you doing this a lot.... where's your money come from?

i'd say that chart is arbitrary at best, and dead wrong at worst. i say this having tried most of these combinations and having nearly died from some (of course I was taking way too much of both). drug interactions are way more complex than an infographic can convey and vary wildly from person...

definition of a "good town": Whitefish, Montana

you just told my story man. i almost choked up reading it. thanks for putting yourself out there, if only to remind me i'm not the only stranger in a strange land. let's stay in touch. i'll PM you my facebook name. if you pass thru southern oregon, hit me up.

squatting alone can be scary. is this place really abandoned? will the cops come? can i use my flashlight? what if tweakers show up at 5am? what if it rains thru the broken skylight? it seems like such a romantic notion until you get woken up at gunpoint by cops. in order to truly enjoy the...

lucky for you there's a fabled freight line in Vermont where you can ride across the border into Quebec without much security. I've never done it myself, but heard about it several times from different tramps along the road

sounds like the overwrought musings of a virgin. just fuck somebody for fun and you'll see its not nearly the big deal you're making it out to be. or you could keep bogarting your sexuality like a precious jewel and stay frustrated.

excellent

def ride the BNSF transcon line (which is the ride described in my post) as opposed to the UP sunset line (I-10)

I've been there man, its hard. if you can pull it off, wean yourself down, .5mg every week. it will still suck but it will spread it out over the course of a month. it will still suck when you stop too. but not nearly as bad and you won't seize or lost your mind completely. also drinking can...

just rode in on a stacktrain, looking for a spot to chill in the streets....don't say E Hastings. anybody know this town?

we're just traveling thru, no land, haha. we're just trainhoppers trying to roll some smokes while we ramble.

looking for good rollies in Canada....loose tobacco is ridiculously priced here, so I can't really experiment. Help! we're used to Bali Shag....anything comparable here? what are the good brands? cheapest places to buy? EDIT: to be clear, this is not a veiled reference to marijuana. i'm...

for that price any jeep you find won't go very far, and definitely not "real fucking far". jeep brand is definitely not known as reliable and can be annoying to work on, i wouldn't get that unless youre a mechanic. the above poster is right, toyotas are great. and for that price, about the only...

awesome info here, thanks everyone. i'm headed up into BC in the next week or 2

i had a wild ride that i wrote about last year and thought i'd share it here. https://thesemichrist.wordpress.com/2014/03/11/weird-or-dead/ tell me what you think! there's also plenty of other posts about rambling in various formats, just click 'posts' at the top of the blog. currently i'm...
