Almost certain they were playing it up and this is satire, sorry to spoil everyone’s fun. https://www.instagram.com/jaayfilms They started again on September 30 this year and are now in Missouri. If these content creators are good at one thing it’s creating a compelling narrative and this guy did it by getting himself called illiterate.
Oh shit, he’s in the home state of illiteracy now

Micro cosmology is a problem a majority of Americans live with. If they can't see it from their front porch it don't exist. That played a major factor in the current shitshow preloading in d.c.

Well, if you're following him, did you bring more clothes? Maybe you can lend him some.
we live in a society.
Not sure he does.
Two weeks, huh? The US is around 3,000 miles from coast to coast, so that puts him over 200 miles skateboarding every single day... I'm not sure, but the person who didn't know mountains exist might be dumb.
Just go faster. I don't get it.
Paint the skateboard red if you have to.
Paint it yella to make it shootyer

Casper and Cheyenne Wyoming have the 75k most powerful voters in the country.
They control the same number of US Senators as the world's 5th largest economy.
The fact that 75k can filibuster 40m is the peak of absurdity.
If he's from California then my vote counts a little more because my state has less population. The smaller the state's population the more their vote counts.

The idea behind wisdom of the crowd is that the people who don't know the answer cancel each other out. It's the reason why the audience joker on who wants to be a millionaire is so powerful.
Wisdom of the crowds works when people are making somewhat educated guesses. It falls apart though if everybody groups themselves into camps that either think A or B and no other option because their camp leader has told them that they think A or B

I feel like a longboard would be better for this.
If the longboard is the length of the US and he mounts it, does that count? Does he have to walk the length on the longboard? I have so many (very stupid) questions!

I met a guy like that in the 90's except he was on a lot of LSD and was making his way around the world. IDK if that was true but my buddy picked him up one night and we had a party with him and he cut his dreads off and burned them so a witch wouldn't get them. Good times!
