i know what you're saying, but i empathize with
@Raging Bird. just because you're traveling doesn't always mean it's an
adventure. sometimes traveling just for travel's sake can get a little stale.
Yeah, thanks for saying that for me. One of the darker points in my life was the moment I realized wandering aimlessly for no reason no longer brought me any joy, and actually just kind of fucked my life up in ways I'd have to deal with when I stopped moving. No more running from the real world.
Actual adventures, though...fuck yeah, I still go in for that stuff. I like having a mission and journalism lets me scheme those up for myself. As for resources? I don't even know, to be honest, I like finding out about stuff through conventional means but my favorite shit in the world is finding out about something
nobody knows about, then telling everyone I'm going there and seeing what they're curious about. I read stuff like Cometbus a lot, who does a lot of awesome cultural history about the west coast. Anti-Gravity here in town has an
amazing section called Hidden Louisiana where this girl writes an article about some insane shit you didn't know existed around Nola, like a 200-acre scale model of the entire mississippi river delta, which the corps of engineers would flood to estimate when and where the levee system would break when hurricanes hit. Yeah I mostly just keep my ears peeled and go down a lot of internet rabbit holes.
