General PSA for whoever might be finding me here:
I exist on twitter under two handles; DreamfinderGuy and Lorange27. The former I post about theme parks on, the latter I post about everything else on. In the move here I'm only using the latter handle, and I'll be posting about all my interests.

New on my Substack tonight! My longest post to date, & as I'm sure you're all even more excited for, my first non-Disney one! This one's all about the highs & lows of owning my Chevy Bolt I got this past June. I promise it is more interesting than it sounds!!

I hope everyone at RetroMagic this weekend has an absolute blast!! I dearly wanted to attend this year, but life has been kicking my ass lately and I just couldn’t make it happen :(
I got to spend my morning today down the street with The General, a small consolation for not being with y’all

I hope everyone had a wonderful time at the RetroMagic Living Seas event tonight! I would’ve loved to come, but I just couldn’t make it work with my finances.
Spending tonight thinking about my first RetroWDW event in that same venue eight years ago. Feels like a lifetime ago.

Belated congratulations to Disney & GM on the opening of Test Track 3.0! With that being topical I’d like to take the opportunity to show off my new car, it’s a Chevy Bolt EUV!
I fell in love with this car at EPCOT years ago, & when my old car bit the dust it was my first choice of replacement.

Test Track 3.0 soft opened to all guests today, marking a major milestone for EPCOT as its transportation pavilion becomes Future World's first to make it to a fourth incarnation.
That said, I want to take one last moment to talk about 2.0, one of EPCOT's most misunderstood attractions (link below)

Bluesky friends! My car’s engine blew last week (world’s crummiest birthday present) and I unfortunately have no money to take care of that right now. I’m listing some stuff on eBay rn to try and help with costs if any of y’all may be interested in anything.

I know a lot happened in 2020 so it doesn't surprise me that it fell through the cracks, but I feel like we don't talk about the life and swift death of Quibi enough. That had to be at least a top five funniest thing to happen that year

Here’s the details on the Stolen Kingdom art show. Less than a month away! If you still want to submit art, it’s not too late. Looking to have everything by end of the month. If you’re local, come out on April 12, it’s free! See some art and Disney artifacts from Horizons Discovery Island and more!

Woke up from a dream I don’t remember and the only thought I had in my head once I was awake was “The AOL Instant Messenger guy is made of cheese”
I feel like this is probably some kind of vital message to share with the world sent to my subconscious for reasons unknown

Update on little TV! I tracked down an original remote for it on eBay, & once that arrived I was able to get into its service menu and calibrate a few issues with the picture. It’s still not perfect, but it’s working and looking great now!! Been using it for gaming and to watch old animated TV shows

I don't think I'll ever get over losing the Rivers of America to greed. This corporation is now charging a family of four $800 for park entry, $1,600 for special snowflake expedited entry, and $50 for VIP parking that's still a mile and a lagoon away — all before the park even opens.

Spent the last several years purging my DVD collection to replace them with Blu-Ray/UHD Blu-Ray as applicable, but ever since I got this TV suddenly I want DVDs of stuff mastered in Standard Definition (namely old animated shows that haven’t been remastered) to watch on it. What a world.

Went thrifting today and found this lovely 13” Trinitron set. I’ve been looking for one of these for a reasonable price for years now so I am super excited!! She needs a little love but works like a charm.

It is with an overwhelming amount of love in my heart that I can say I saw Stolen Kingdom, & it has truly been worth the wait. It's a lovely look back at the history of WDW urbex leading up to the Buzzy story, which felt like a trip down memory lane for me.
Oh, and I am in it!!

It's odd that for the last decade WDW has been focused on making all the parks (save for DAK which they're only now getting to) more like Magic Kingdom, & now Magic Kingdom itself is becoming lesser

I know there is a lot happening in the world right now but WDW fans should really be sounding the alarms and raising hell that they’re losing their Rivers of America and really try to to everything they can to let D’Amaro and Iger feel the heat for killing it off.
