how to escape to alaska

Post by Hugh »

anybody here from alaska?

I found some videos about homeless drunks in anchorage alaska. looks pretty fucking brutal. the cops go out to the camps and try to either help them or arrest them or some shit, i don't know, but they show all the beer cans and liquor bottles all over the place. they say that they find people frozen to death there all the time.

but what about escaping there with a little bit of money to have a place to live, but far enough away that nobody can bother you? i'm thinkking something like kethcikan alaska where the weather is mild and rainy. i think i would do well there if i could get there. i could just rent a cabin and drink all the time. do you think that would work? I have about $50K saved up right now. plus I get social security soon. I'm 52 years old. do you think there is internet there so i could submit my poems and novels to publishers? would they rent to me if they know i am from california? if they know i'm from california maybe they will think i'm not tough enough to make it. but all i want to do is drink and write and be away from everyone. do you think it would be quiet there? i want to go where it is quiet and there is water. but i'm much to scared to move to alaska. but i want to. any advice is appreciated. fuck i wish i knew what the fuck to do. all i know is that where i'm at now it is malevolent with the landlord raising my rent and people assaulting me with noise.

you know why i posted this here instead of on facebook with the normal people? because drunks can be honest and really try to help. of course they are funny and full of shit, but if they know something they will say it. that's the greatest wisdom i've found yet - to trust fucking drunks.

I've heard that there are still plots up in Alaska that you can homestead, meaning that if you stake a plot and live in it for a few years it's rightfully urine. You could do that, take your cash and build one of them tiny houses. Of course, you would have to dig your own hole to shit in which may be a chore digging through the permafrost, and I saw one Alaska show on T.V. where the hole was full and they had to dig a new one and move the outhouse. The thing that fascinated me the most was when they picked up the outhouse and showed the giant frozen shit stalagmite that had grown underneath.
I doubt this is much help to you, but I appreciate your posts and the fact that you want to give to the drunkard community, whereas my posts are all meaningless, banal, insipid tripe that should have been deleted and the poster banned like over a decade ago.
Cheers to your dream of solitude, go ahead and move up there. Who knows, with climate change maybe by the time you get your house built and shithole dug the area weather may turn into something close to Southern California.

One nice thing to note: after you've lived in Alaska for more than a year, you qualify as a state resident, and state residents receive an annual dividend from pipeline revenues. In 2017 this amounted to a little over $1000 per person. Some years it's north of $2000.

There are other places you might consider.
Libertarians are quite accepting of differing viewpoints.
For them, is all about personal liberty; fuck the machine.

Here's one, in a lovely read. It's in New Hampshire.

That's a bonus, but I've heard that booze is harder to come by and can be staggeringly expensive. A couple grand may help, but barely makes up for the price difference in your yearly drink budget. Or maybe build a still before you dig your shithole.

There was a chick in Alaska on the board for awhile. Worked in a bar, wore a cowboy hat, that's all I remember.

Booze is definitely way more expensive in Alaska, which is kind of ironic because drinking is the official state sport. If a person were to go somewhere like the Matsu valley, you'd have enough fermentable material nearby to set up a still. You could make a year worth of booze from the potato cullings alone. I once heard from someone up there though that the biggest threat to a still isn't the blue shirts but the grizzled instead. Moonshinnin in Alaska would be a trip.

Hey, I think I saw that poopcicle episode of Alaskan Fuckers. What you need to do is tamp a bunch of dynamite and blow that poopcicle to kingdom come in a big ceremonial event involving lots of liquor and drugs. Or maybe shoot the shit with concentrated fire from a half dozen AK-47s. Just sayin', there's ways of dealing with it.

I've heard New Hampshire is a fake state. Seem to remember being there once, but I'm still not convinced it exists.
