At this point, if you have kids teach them Chinese so they can go to a top school.

Ironically I was there in mid August and there were lots of hispanic tourists, then some french. So many people from mexico that there were tijano bands on every street corner near the bellagio.

We should watch for Melania and the trump kids visiting trump’s lawyers (to ask about his will)

I have a hope that the scramble for power will break the machine, but not much.

Ding dong.

Gavin should fire Trump and order all US agencies to not take orders from losers that have been fired by a real leader.

We’re now a regional power with a large army, which will have to either attack things or reduce over time to survive its budget cost. We have to accept that a majority of voters chose this, and China will outpace us in many fields over the next 50 years.

And their families, sadly.

People are dying to volunteer.

Trump is not intelligent but he is savvy, and he has put together a coalition where no one idiot can hold a majority like he can. People only rebel when they have to or when it’s strongly in their best interest. The second can’t occur if you don’t hold a strong core to rebel with.

Yeah we sent troops to Louisiana in the 1860s, we can do it again if we need to.

Yeah, being an adult is recognizing that Obama was a great President, but he did not deserve that Peace Prize.

Self Dining only months away.

Wifi signal must be incredible.

Actually walgreens and cvs are pretty handy, I was able to stock for a small party on the cheap, and they’re every block or two

I’m currently here, and I have a $50/day resort fee, there is a parking fee (no car so don’t know it), $500 if they think someone smoked in the room, my $27 room service was $44 after convenience fees to take it up an elevator in the same building. $125 to stay an extra 2 hours on check out.

I’m here right now, wrapping up from a conference.

This place is dead.

I’ve been to Vegas many times, and the lack of foot traffic and crowds is incredible. The most notable thing is the lack of Americans and the strange increase in Hispanic visitors. I saw 8 separate tejano bands set up near the Bellagio with moderate crowds, similar to how it used to be for buskers in the early 2010s. You can get a reservation about anywhere for dinner, same day. Attractions are all walk in.

I’ve been chatting up my uber drivers, and they think it’s down 30-40% based on ride frequency.

If you could put in like ten minutes a day planning how to stop the Trisolarian invasion, we’d appreciate it.

I want to build garbage burning power plants in the US like in Scandinavia. It would remove methane emissions from landfills and you can do some carbon capture with scrubbers on the plants as they operate. Also, your fuel is free and the garbage companies can even charge less as they don’t have to maintain a landfill.

Last time Texas sent troopers to force their will on the North, it didn’t go so well.
