"a man calling himself 'beast' is bribing men and women to participate in unholy games" you would tell that to any arbitrary person in europe for centuries and they would not need any further convincing to say it was the doing of the Adversary

It’s kind of funny that WDW is celebrating today as the start of the holiday season, but it really already started at MK on Nov. 2-3, at DHS on Nov. 7-8, and won’t start at Epcot or most of the resorts until Thanksgiving week.
So I guess what they really mean is it starts at DAK today?

Wow. This looks awesome. It’s been a while since DHS did something that made me think “I really need to visit DHS” but this fits the bill *and* feels like something that would’ve been right at home in original concept MGM Studios.

Who wants this? Social media is already overrun with thoughtless, pointless, ugly AI slop. Now it's going to proliferate to paid streaming services too? Does Disney really want their brand associated with this?

Well, if you were curious how things are going on X - the everything app - they are currently forcing everyone with a FIDO key and/or Passkey associated with Twitter dot com to reenroll it with x dot com, but the reenrollment process doesn’t work and forces you into an endless authentication loop.
