The @devononearth.bsky.social anecdote about the staff knowing them from the “Sexy Beast” episode of @killjamesbond.bsky.social is the most “we have people everywhere” story. 😁😁

Student media rules. They are lapping a lot of the spineless media orgs this year and showing how solidarity is the way.

Study after study shows that it's remarkably cheap and easy to solve the problems of homelessness and poverty with low-barrier supportive housing and universal basic income, but our own fear that someone, somewhere will get something they didn't "earn" keeps us looking for other (punitive) options.

“In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Those affected receive a small apartment & counselling with no preconditions. 4 out of 5 people affected make their way back into a stable life. And all this is CHEAPER than accepting homelessness.”

It costs a lot less to house people.

Finland ends homelessness and provides shelter for all in need - scoop.me

In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Why? The country applies the "Housing First" concept agains homelessness.

Also insane to learn, in what is a minor aside, that the reason you’re a fan of a baseball team is because Robert Moses didn’t play ball with the Dodgers’ owner over a new stadium -> who then decided to relocate to LA -> and convinced the Giants to go to SF to maintain the rivalry.

I’ve finally finished the Power Broker after like 1.5years of reading it. The insane part is that now I wanna go back and read it again.

Credit where credit is due: the SW Trading Post does put some effort in stylizing the tool boxes. There’s paint and weathering and a stylized wrap on the handlebar!

Better than the matte black finish you see in Galaxy’s Edge!

There are just so many in this ride in particular.

Chris Woo @chrisdwoo.bsky.social · 1d

There’s no way I missed three of these the last time I was in line for this ride.

Chris Woo @chrisdwoo.bsky.social · 1d

Still a dope sight.

Chris Woo @chrisdwoo.bsky.social · 1d

Huh there’s a second one. Makes me wonder where the rolling toolbox is…

Chris Woo @chrisdwoo.bsky.social · 1d

(I’m on the smugglers run ride)

*first toughsystem small box that I’ve seen

Chris Woo @chrisdwoo.bsky.social · 1d

This is the first ToughSystem small toolbox. Which is unusual cuz it usually comes in a three part set with the larger box.

Chris Woo @chrisdwoo.bsky.social · 1d

I’m serious when u say the use of toughsystem boxes is super weird to me

People who wear those ponchos on Grizzly River Rapids are cowards and should be ashamed of themselves.

I assume somebody has done the One Battle After Another music over the bunny humps of Radiator Springs Racers right?

Chris Woo @chrisdwoo.bsky.social · 1d

Honestly started cackling in the middle of Disneyland seeing this.

New and returning cast for ‘Euphoria’ season 3.

Out Spring 2026.

I would also say it's criminal the lack of Andor merch available.

Chris Woo @chrisdwoo.bsky.social · 1d

Am I the only one who notices this thing? (It's all over galaxy's edge, in both Rise of the Resistance and the Millenium Falcon ride). I wonder if it has a wookieepedia page? It should.

Every time I go to a Disney park I see the Dewalt ToughSystem 1.0 tool box being used in a Star Wars setting (just saw three at the Downtown Disney SW Trading Post).
