The Loneliest Road
Oct. 16, 2023
From Carson City to Salina, Utah, we completed our gifting of US Highway 50 today, the loneliest road in America.
There was only light DOR in the morning which was transmuting quickly. There were very few "planes" all day on the entire drive and they were all struggling, with short trails, some curving and breaking. There were areas where there had been recent rain in Nevada, and even green grass in some places.
As we got closer to Utah, we saw very defined stumps of ancient silicon trees. The destruction was very complete here. The land was open and desolate this whole trip. There were few towns and they were over an hour apart at times. There were also few cell towers, but what there were are gifted now, and many more towerbusters were thrown in between.
The road was relentless, with one summit and wide valley after another and the several hundred miles seeming to last forever. The towns we passed through were weathered old west towns which maintained their history in the bleak landscape. The land will transform and re-green this winter and spring, with snow and new lakes forming following this gifting.

Highway 50 (No. 5)
White Pine County is a largely rural, mountain county along the central eastern boundary of the U.S. state of Nevada. As of the 2010 census, the population was 10,030. Its county seat is Ely. The name "(Rocky Mountain) white pine" is an old name for the limber pine (Pinus flexilis), a common tree in the county's mountains.
The county boasts dark skies, clean air and millions of acres of unspoiled public land. It is the home of Great Basin National Park, one of America's most remote and least visited national parks. It is also home to no less than 14 federally designated wilderness areas, offering an abundance of terrain available to explore for hikers, backpackers, skiers, hunters and anglers.
The Ely Shoshone Indian Reservation is located in the county, on the south side of the City of Ely. The reservation has a land area of 104.99 acres (0.4249 km2) and a 2000 census official resident population of 133 people.

Road Trip 2k24: Part 11 - The Liminal Space between States
Tumblr media
So I'm driving towards my next destination and I need to make a pit stop. The last services were about 80 miles behind me, when appearing like magic out of the desert was the above sign.
Tumblr media
The place had a weird vibe. Maybe it was because the intentionally built the Inn on the state line so that the Utah side could have cheaper gas and the Nevada side could have the last possible casino on the highway. Maybe it was because the lady behind the counter looked shocked that someone walked through the door and bought some powerade.
Maybe it was the glitched out prices for gas. Hell, maybe it was the actual fucking phone booth!
Tumblr media
I bought my powerade, checked my phone (which, for a place that was 80 miles from anything else in either direction had full 5g coverage), and moved on to my next stop.
Tumblr media
Hell of a view though.

Out In The West
A couple walks through the rain in downtown Reno, Nevada I n The United States today is Labor Day. It’s a day to celebrate workers. We celebrate by not working, burning hot dogs and hamburgers and trying our best not to start a wildfire, especially in the west where these pictures were made. When I lived in New Mexico I traveled even further west to Arizona, Nevada and a bit of Utah. I made…

Gotta say there's something a little funny to me about everyone taking SUCH issue with Jon's whole "stalk people for their statements" avatar of The Eye feeding thing because like
Gertrude Robinson chopped up Jan Kilbride and threw him in a hole.
Like not to make this a competition of reprehensible evils committed by Head Archivists but we ARE part of the "chop people up and throw them into a hole" institution.
Like yes yes Gertrude did it to prevent the end of the world and Jon's doing his thing because he's hungry and inhuman and no one's supervising him I get that it's different and yes everyone being unhappy about this is deeply thematically important for Jon's whole I'm No Longer Human arc.
I just almost kinda think that after all the maggots and spiders and death and puppets and changelings and C4 and more deaths and end of the world and end of the world and other end of the world, that maybe everyone associated with the Magnus Institute would be so fucking desensitized to it all that they'd instead be like "Oh Jon's eating statements from people? Is anyone dead? No? Okay then happy for him glad he's living his truth now get the fuck out."

Highways: US 50, Eureka County, Nevada, 2020.
In 2020 much of US 50 in Nevada was outside of cell phone coverage, and this photo was not geotagged.
