I’ve explained this so many times. I grew up in rural Georgia and I’ve been shout and yelled at so many times by some old boomer dude that I’m just immune to it. Would rather just avoid listening to their bullshit at all.

And then suffer 0 consequences because our legal system is petrified of the wealthy.

Minecraft playing as a nomad. Just watching sunsets over a mountain and sleeping in a giant mushroom.

 

This place used to be a state park but lost its status. Still some good hiking and kayaking though and almost never very busy.

During Covid the sherpas took the opportunity to really clean up Everest, including Green Boots. It’s such a shame that their best option to earn a living is to watch rich folk trash a mountain they consider sacred.

Not good. Just watery ketchup. But it was a hell of a lot better than nothing. It did help that I snagged a few packs of crackers for texture.

Went to visit my gf in college once a few hours away. On the way back I put every penny I had into my gas tank in hopes it would be enough and it barely was. While at the gas station I mixed some ketchup packets, salt, and hot water for “tomato soup” because it was all free.

That’s a really good way to put it that I’ve never heard before.

Born in the south and moved to Philadelphia in my early twenties. It was more culture shock than some other countries I’ve been to. Folks in Philly don’t hold back. If they don’t like you they tell you, to your face. They also don’t feel the need to add all the extra and often unnecessary pleasantries to every social interaction. Honestly for a “well mannered” southern kid it was pretty liberating to get to drop all that.

Lol, no they won’t.

 

I always feel like folks sleep on Stone Mountain but the red trail is such a treat and it’s only 20-25 minutes from town.

Except that 90% of the time you answer and it just hangs up because it’s testing to see if the line is active to sell to telemarketers

We’re pretty much the same although I ditched WaPo cause Bezos.

I do add the BBC and France24 if there’s a large international story breaking.

It was called “Drunk” and was about human’s history with inebriates with an emphasis on alcohol. For a book on booze it was incredibly dry and while the author made some decent points he tended to just repeat them over and over again.

 
 

After hiking what feels like a never ending climb up Blood Mtn seeing the famous AT shelter at the top is such a relief. Then just spending some time with your fellow hikers at the top sharing stories and snacks is a dream come true. Makes the hike down feel like nothing.

 

Not as pretty as some of y’all’s pics but man this is such a great hike!
