Detroit -
what can i say about a place that i had never been to ... which reputation precedes it ... and i was warned over & over to never visit.
1. it's worse than people ever warned about
2. the air quality is apocalyptic
3. i felt the fear of other humans for the real first time ever in my life
so on the third attempt of driving completely out of the city limits (chicking out & leaving) i bucked up returned & rode out the concert event š¤¢
i have never seen such abject degenerate living conditions in all my travels.
even the whole foods there was a creepy fear factory
never again - never ever
fyi that was the last big city in this country that i hadn't experienced
& if i thought that -
baltimore sucks
boston sucks
los angeles sucks
new york sucks
detroit is the biggest sucking sound you'll ever hear
God wants me to understand what's happening to my country & the amount of traveling that i do is as good a sponging tool as there ever was that lead
I got a man. Not here to date. No DMās. Sad that I even need to write this.
I grew up in the suburbs and lived as an adult in the city proper for 20 years. The decline was rapid. It was so bad that they tore down the projects.
Now I have people coming to me and telling me how FABULOUS it is. All the development andā¦what ever they consider to beā¦FABULOUS.
Talking about gow theyāre putting in a train system to Pontiac. What for? There isnāt anything in either city for anyone to need a train for.
Donāt get me started on the Bunny Hill they were building on the outskirts of the city.
All a lie! They took the brownfield dirt from the riverfront to build casinos and trucked it to the Rouge River area that had just been cleaned up and contaminated that area again. A MF BUNNY HILL!! IN THE CITY!! WHERE PEOPLE CANāT PAY TAXES!!
Johnny Knoxville did a video a few years back about the abandoned city of Detroit. Very depressing.

honestly ... you know "it" exists when you do go to these places ... you can tell the only way people have anything is by keeping other ppl from taking it
there is no civilization anymore in those realms
urban jungle(s)
