Disneyland Handcrafted is great. Was lucky enough to see it in a theatre today and it was a treat to see all of that never before seen, restored footage on the big screen. Loved it.

Lotta people get mad at me when I criticize Democratic messaging but THIS IS HOW DEMOCRATS SHOULD BE TALKING. Like normal people using normal language to communicate normal human emotions about the fucked up situation.

Q: After you told ICE to get the F out, Republicans are criticizing you for escalating tensions
FREY: I'm sorry if I offered their Disney princess ears, but if we're talking about what's inflammatory, on one hand you got someone who dropped an F bomb & on other you have someone who killed someone

Really annoyed by those new Vault Collection Disneyland glasses for three reasons:
— they’re really really great designs but I don’t need more cups
— they’re $15(!) more in the parks than they are online ($64.99 vs $49.99)… why?!
— the Disneyland logo on the cups (and matching tray) says “Resort”

I don’t care that they’re tearing out ticket booths for Porto’s but I do hope that they have a larger redesign plan for the esplanade and they they aren’t just going to tear out the booths they need to remove for Porto’s and leave the rest of the esplanade just sitting there as-is.

Remember when Disney had a reputation for industry-leading guest service? So much so that they released books about it and held seminars to teach other companies about it?

Sometimes you spend way too much on something on eBay and sometimes it’s worth it.

it’s very funny to me that they have two massive two story restaurant buildings in downtown disney that they’ve turned into to stores that occupy only a fraction of the restaurant buildings.

Moving sidewalks, people movers, and a functional purpose-built monorail transportation loop. Never forget what they took from us.

It isn’t even a matter of opinion that he’s wrong - the country was founded on the basis of freedom of religion but it’s wild to me that all of these Christian nationalists at AmericaFest are cheering him saying this shit but he’s married to an Indian woman & practicing Hindu who refuses to convert
JD Vance gets the biggest applause of his speech so far when he says "by the grace of God we always will be a Christian nation"

Words are insufficient for me to summarize the extraordinary life of the brilliant Eddie Sotto, even after a day of writing notices of varying lengths. Although I knew this day was approaching, I still don’t know where to begin. Eddie had been signaling it to me in the most paradoxical, “Eddie” way…

Absolutely devastating loss for the theme park nerds with the passing of Eddie Soto. We are lucky to live in a world where he designed amazing things.

It seems that the news has gotten out that we've lost Eddie Sotto. It's hard to know what to say about someone who was not only so wildly talented, furiously and energetically creative, and all around brilliant, but also incredibly kind and generous. It's an enormous loss for us all.
