While out and about over the past few days, the majority of people who I actually spoke to at The Tourist Traps, besides my own visitors, were tourists from out of the country. Usually they're from out of state. I think it's just happenstance, but the real surprise is the amount of Londoners.

I wonder if they had had this trip planned for awhile, or if they made this trip's plans sometime in the disastrous half a year since 2025 started. I love America, I really do, and the majority of it is still roughly the same as it was before 2025 started getting project-ed, and I'm proud of how friendly people remain in my area despite the pressure to normalize cruelty and bigotry. However, I feel a hostility towards foreign tourists from other leading colonial empires right now. Why support us now? Why put your money into this?

Despite being quite liberal in reality, my city is used as a poster child for conservatism, because of the amount of cultural media that is generated here that is beloved by conservatives. That probably gives away my location a bit, but I'll survive. I wonder if visitors from London, of which there APPEARS to be a larger amount (from my limited observations alone), are genuinely here to celebrate and support the reich?
