Saturday slow-read: “Aggressive Kindness.”

It's about how old records and basement shows echo when you’re helping strangers.

If that mix of memory and mutual aid sounds like your lane, here you go: adventureadjacent.com/2025/12/09/a...

Crumpled black-and-white punk show flyer on yellowed paper advertising a mid-90s gig at the Sapphire Night Club in Norristown, Pennsylvania. The top half is packed with hand-drawn band names in rough block letters — The Upstanders, Seven-Ten Splits, Space Ate Mafia, The Havoctones, Dr. Fever, and Antix — above handwritten details about doors at 7:30 p.m., an 8:00 p.m. start, and a cheaper cover “with this flyer.” The right side features a chaotic cartoon figure with wild hair and exaggerated limbs, drawn in the same photocopied, DIY style.

“Euro Truck Simulator 2 screenshot of a black and gold Volvo FH16 780 in Adventure Adjacent colors hauling a trailer across the Hålogaland Bridge on the E6 at sunset. The sky is soft blue and orange over dark mountains and a calm fjord below, with the truck in the foreground and the bridge’s tall cable-stayed tower in the distance. Gold text at the top reads ‘MISSED THE DRIVE?

Yesterday’s post, Aggressive Kindness, keeps ringing in my ears.

The older I get, the more it feels like the real legacy of those records isn’t the riffs, it’s the way they trained us to treat people.

I went back to the records that raised me and tried to trace how they hard-wired this idea that you take care of the people around you.

If you’ve ever had a record and make your worldview tilt, you might like this one.

This morning’s Nordic Horizons run is in the books: Haparanda → Alta → Tromsø, heavy cargo and heavier conversations about carbon capture, Sámi history, Anders Poulsen, and joik.

Driving southbound near the county line and the highway decided to pretend it was a whole new place.

I forget how beautiful stretches like this can be until these moments.

🍻 Here’s to the in-between miles

Share your favorite sunset drive pics or stories.

View through the windshield of a Toyota FJ Cruiser driving south on a multi-lane highway at dusk near the Lancaster-Berks county line. The sky glows orange along the horizon, fading into pale blue above. Headlights and taillights stretch into the distance, streetlights are just turning on, and the vehicle’s hood reflects the sunset's colors.

That new Field Note about Live Streams keeps boomeranging back in my head.

It’s about using virtual miles as practice for the real ones: calm merges, better judgment, and a tiny chat that feels like mutual aid instead of doomscrolling.

Read it here: adventureadjacent.com/2025/12/04/w...

Some days I’m up to my elbows in real grease. Other days I’m hauling virtual freight through digital snow.

New Journal entry about why my Live Streams belong next to oil changes, icy creek crossings, and ridge roads, not in a separate “gaming” box.
