Tim recounts a two-day Vegas trip during COVID, describing how desperate and grateful the service industry has become, a lesbian valet who took her job seriously, and dinners at Carbone and a sushi restaurant.
- Tim describes Vegas as brought to its knees, with valets now thanking customers for parking their cars.
- Everyone in Vegas right now feels like a high roller, regardless of what they're spending.
- The buffets are closed, which Tim doesn't love because it's part of the Vegas experience.
- Tim notes they had a lesbian running the valet, praising lesbians as business-minded and respectful of their jobs.
- Tim explains why gay men don't do valet work as well as lesbians, using himself as an example of someone who would complain the job is dumb.
- Vegas is depressing and apocalyptic, but in a calm, relaxed way—unlike DC, which has the real apocalypse.
- The new gangster move is wearing a mask under your nose, with old people in Vegas completely unbothered.
- Tim had dinner at Carbone and Menumi sushi restaurant, sitting at an outdoor pagoda table.
- Tim reflects that it was nice to be out having dinner, as LA shut down and it's been hard for him.
