    Ikr, I can’t relate to Vegas-enjoyers, even before Trump.
    Unless you’re into fake gold, cigarette smoke, tire dust, concrete, gambling, objectification.
    I don’t believe in Hell, but Vegas is straight up nightmarish.
    It’s like a pizza oven over there, the concrete radiates heat well after the sunset.
    They abuse AC everywhere to a level where you’re either freezing inside or cooking outdoors.
    The strip itself could be pedestrian focused but it’s instead car-centric for no reason.
    Trucks go up and down the strip for the sole purpose of pulling an ad-trailer-TV thing.
    Crossing the street is potentially a 5-10 minute affair that takes you through a mall because reasons.
    It’s basically an incarnation of the worst of capitalism and consumerism in the most unsustainable way in the most stupid place.
    I hate the place with a passion and I cannot imagine willfully spending time there when one can be literally anywhere else instead.
