Posting this for no particular reason. Some people might find it interesting. Some people enjoy looking at asses. Who am I to judge?

Working at a mafia-owned establishment isn’t for the faint of heart but it helps a ton when dealing with ownership groups in the hotel industry since bringing in “silent partners/investors/my uncle” guys who make the Mustache Pete types look ethical. #hotels #resorts #owners #travel

Leaves turning color, crisp mornings, and hotel owners giving their banks a budget that is 99.999% fiction with no semblance of reality combined with a business plan that is laughable in every possible way (nowadays mostly written using AI making it demonstrably worse and more illegible). #hotels

PSA: if you’re at a bar and feel that you’re in danger order an Angel Shot. Three options: Neat (they will escort you out to your car), On the rocks (call you a cab/rideshare), Lime (means they call the police immediately). Bars and restaurants are trained on this. And I’m also Jane Doe. #bars

Given the interactions I’ve had with dozens of Cornell graduates (their hospitality program produces a ton of people in leadership positions in the hotel industry), I’m not surprised what has come to light. I tend to avoid most of them and the fratbro contingent are best avoided entirely. #hotels

At this rate he’s going to start canceling shows. He should probably talk to Morrissey about what excuses work best given his penchant for canceling shows.

2/ To be nice, the one thing she did was hire some really smart people to manage her inheritance which some people should have done rather than cosplaying as a hotel magnate (if you like gaudy shitboxes DTs your guy). But the ad itself last night was tone deaf given the state of affairs. End.

1/ As someone who spent a long period of time working for Hilton (and knows more than I should) trotting out Paris Hilton to do ads is hilariously stupid given how most people there can’t stand her (breathtakingly dumb and not remotely pleasant towards people) #hotels #resorts #travel

Thankfully they included Randolph Mantooth in the “in memoriam” segment so I don’t have to go full riot mode.

youtu.be/OBNDrVEblFs?... It’s mid-September but when you find out that Shaggy and Sting did this from watching Taskmaster (on Hulu) you’re required to share because you can’t say that you have experienced the festive season until you’ve heard this…song. You’re welcome.

Tomorrow will always be a solemn day. I don’t need to remember because I can remember every single minute of 9/11 without thinking. But I will always think of the people of Gander who welcomed people during a true emergency and did everything they could to help them. Be like Gander.

DT should go full Mrs Slocum for his next hair color (for the young ones, it’s from the 70s BBC show “Are You Being Served” which you should absolutely watch- getting reruns of this and Eastenders on PBS in the 80s and early 90s was a comedic gift).

Calling this administration incompetent and corrupt is becoming complimentary at this point. Publishing FY2027 per diem rates in September on the Friday before a holiday weekend? Bravo. Utter stupidity. Worst administration to work with. Ever. Diabolical. I have socks that are smarter.

Randy #Mantooth spent decades supporting #FirstResponders after his show #Emergency! ended. While we are all hurting from his death on Friday, we remember his commitment to the industry he portrayed on television and honor his memory as he has done for so many #FirstResponders ...

Spewing bullshit and having her head up DTs oversized ass cheeks isn’t what I’d call being good at her job. Guess we’ll see her on Dancing With the Stars soon like Spicer, Tuckums and this donut (Rick Perry for the uninitiated)
