As an Asian American, this is cool.

My $3 @RTCSNV bus ride on the 108 line from the Arts District to the airport took 29 minutes, about 9 minutes longer and $35/$40+ less than Uber/Lyft. Drop off at Terminal 1. Bus comes around about every 30 min. #LasVegas @LASairport
Catching my $3 @RTCSNV #RideShare from the Arts District straight to the airport, ya’ll! #LasVegas #PublicTransportation

I once worked at a news org and did what I considered great work and received a 10 cent hourly annual raise. The female reporters/anchors were let go &/or paid significantly less than their male counterparts for doing the same work.

HBD Las Vegas! 🎂 When showing my visiting family and friends around, they ask me how I know so much about Las Vegas history 😅 it's because I get to work on cool projects like this with telling the story of how this town got its' start 🎰
Happy 119th birthday to us!!! 🥳✨
On May 15, 1905 land was auctioned that would become downtown Las Vegas, marking the start of our city.

Totally missed the northern lights but got this gem of the Milky Way last night in Nevada’s Moapa Valley. Always so lovely. #Nevada #MoapValley #Landscape #MilkyWay
