My most used hashtag was a self-generated one (#roqueamerica). Not much of a hashtag person usually.

Fukuoka Airport sunset. I think I can now make a sweeping yet accurate generalization about my trip: in America, air was the best way to travel and everything else sucked; in Japan, *precisely the opposite*. #roqueamerica #aftermath

Crazy couple of days. Further observations will have to wait until I’m back in the mother country. My ride’s here.
#roqueamerica #終

My bus was delayed more than 2 hours. I went over to a gas station to get some drinks, drank them, started feeling unsafe, walked to a Hertz office to rent a car, there were no cars, went a couple blocks to a Budget, they had cars but I failed the credit check for my debit card (it’s been almost 20 years since I lived in this country) and they had no ATMs, so I went back to the bus stop and by then it was only 20 minutes until the bus would arrive. Now I’n on the bus.

“Get to the bus station early,” the Greyhound email said. The bus has so far been delayed 50 minutes and the “station” is a piss-stained parking lot with a sign that says “BUS STOP” and a QR code. Most of the waiting passengers are clustered together on a dirty concrete slab high enough to sit on. There’s a (homeless?) mentally ill guy in a wheelchair yelling at everyone from across the street like Damien’s dream in the Exorcist.

TIL what I knew in my youth as “American Gladiators” has become “American Ninja Warrior.” And it’s been going for 15 seasons.
