Mercifully she was kidding a little bit with how upset she was but thanks for the suggestions, that's very nice of you. Trust me she's plenty familiar with their website though! We're hanging out and watching some UFC right now for some contrast, she's a lady of many interests.

chitoryu12 posted:So the complicated part of Small World is that while it has stereotypical animatronics, it stereotypes every ethnicity (including all of the white ones) and takes a very anti-racist stance. The art style is outdated but the entire message is "Our diversity is awesome and makes the world great, and we should celebrate it." We have a local theme park that has a ride that's basically it's a small world, except it's called Carnaval. Unfortunately Fact that literally everyone is a caricature doesn't matter to a lot of people. As soon as the more egregious parts are changed that ride will become the new target.

While I can't go into specifics, if you are planning on visiting the modified Disney World, may I suggest doing anything else with your time. This isn't going to be fun for anyone.

This isn't going to be fun for anyone. I figured as much. I feel really lucky we got our trip in at the end of Feb. I don't have any plans to go back right now until probably Feb 2022. Them killing FP+ was enough for me to go.... nah, not worth it. We're heavy planners and users of FP+ and park hop daily. Just doesn't fit our style with the restrictions.

and I'm going to just out and say it; if you take a trip to Florida right now from out of state you are straight up putting your family and yourself in direct danger. Don't be a part of the problem, we don't need any more vectors. Just let us self implode as fast as possible so hopefully, hopefully, there's a way to get back to work in 2021.

Yeah, as long as you are smart and isolated then it doesn't really apply to you but people going to Disney and such can not do that on any level no matter how prepared they are.

Pretty sure we're going to cancel our Platinum Plus APs. Looking at the reservation availability, weekends are already getting booked out through August. There's just no point with a) very limited availability, b) no park hopping, c) masks, and d) the global pandemic. It's just not worth it. We'll likely do our AP preview day just to see how bad it is, cancel the last few months, and regroup later.

I went ahead and banked my dvc points till next use year. I feel that WDW is going to be a cluster at least through October at this point if not longer.  One of our friends is taking their family down in late July for a week at WDW. I can’t imagine how miserable it would be with all of the restrictions, heat and other unknown issues.

The Tokyo parks opened and seemingly went well, because Japanese people don’t go Karen and shout about their grandfather’s sacrifice to the flag wasn’t so we could all wear masks. People wore masks and stood where told to. gently caress them not testing CMs, though. Union lawsuits are going down in Nevada about a lack of mandatory testing and lack of protection for service workers, but not even setting up an employee testing site at a convention center (probably Coronado since it doesn’t have DVC attached) and giving people access to a test even if you don’t require one is so stupid.

Disney has more CMs than the number of tests done each day in all of Florida. I can see how that would be a logistical problem.

The obvious fix to the logistical problem is either Disney plowing its corporate might into testing or just...you know, not opening. But (I get you're not necessarily defending their decision making here, I'm just sayin')

I think the problem is that Disney knows there’s no end in sight so they’re conserving their cash on hand.

What I find funny is that despite this poo poo show, ultimately I think it's going to be southwest that officially kills our planned September trip. They changed our direct flights to add a layover and it'll cost an extra $400 per ticket for the only direct flight available lol gently caress that and gently caress you I hope the airlines all go out of business.

Yep, new show and the tickets went live after news of the bankruptcy went out, you’d think they would have nixed sales if it wasn’t happening. If I were getting tickets, there’s no way I would do so until closer unless I felt like fighting a bankrupt company for a refund.

Obviously it's developed and cast/crewed by Cirque so that could be an issue, but like, the theater staff and such is provided by Disney, and I think the overall budget comes from Disney.
