Any kind of travel is a luxury. Hell, I'm not even interested in going to a restaurant when they offer a kids meal free with adult entree purchase because that adult entree is still insanely expensive for what you get compared to going to the grocery store (and even THAT is already pricey). Nope.

Check out how Las Vegas is being affected by this. (Not my video) youtu.be/LHwU4lQ46nA?... it's ridiculous

I'm getting priced out of everything I love. Thanks to Trump's tarrifs and general inflation, my spending habits have been severely curbed. Coffee, groceries, restaurants, toys, movies/entertainment... damn near every "nice to have" has become a longing I've been walking away from with anger.

well, at least the love is not artificial, @gretchen-yanover.bsky.social
