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.

I visited this car so many times at Test Track…mine’s even the same color! Huge thank you to everyone who helped me with raising money for a down payment. It was very difficult to make happen but a lot of time, hunting, and determination made it a reality. I am so happy with it.

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)

On the other site a few people have asked me about direct donations rather than bidding on stuff. I feel weird just taking money, but if anybody feels inclined I have some of these Wonders fun packs to mail out as a thank you! You get all these stickers and more.

Shoot me a DM if interested! 💛

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.

Please check it out! 🫶

Checking in for my monthly attempt at being active here. Did you know they’re opening up a new theme park in Orlando? I checked it out the other day, seems kinda cool

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

Who up loving their retro tech and EPCOT Center

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

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.

Sick Cranium Command reference at the pop up SNL 50 thing in the Race thru New York gift shop

Also found while thrifting, this old HP “iPAQ” Pocket PC, which the thrift store had labeled as an iPad (lol). It was $2, a neat oddity.

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!!

Just got on the monorail to look at Future World in case anybody is wondering how life without my WDW AP is going

Came home from work to find my Switch (which has been idle for months) was suddenly glowing bright orange and not responding to any input

That’s good, right?

While I have the equipment I think I may try to dump all this stuff too. Is it impractical? Sure, but this is way more fun than using rom sites
February 13, 2025 at 10:47 PM
Last month I happened upon something enormously cool - some prototype NES games from Taito. A video game preservation group graciously loaned me the hardware to dump the contents of these cartridges today, which has been a really fun way to spend my afternoon.

Ohhhhhh your cat is so cute!!!! She reminds me of mine, I love tortoiseshells

Every social platform is becoming insufferable but I just can’t seem to migrate here completely…I think I am going to try again. Sucks watching everything become enshittified and being powerless to do anything about it

This is all I’ve been able to think of throughout the whole Dreamfinder head saga (this has been going on for like a week, only got permission to share yesterday)
