this is super discouraging to me (you can tell by the fact that it's made me post for the first time in ages). we just got DAS for our upcoming trip for the first time for my 4-year-old son. he has a diagnosis, and not buying genie+ was never a factor in us saying, "hey, let's give this a shot...

51! we grow 'em big here on long island. speaking of that, though, three separate height checks on him. so if you have a child that's close, know that they're going to check thoroughly.

rode last week with my 6-year-old. we enjoyed it, but we both far prefer guardians. tron is cool, and i think maybe the coolest part is the effect when you're digitized and the queue appears.

i just read through the storyline for the new attraction, which i can only assume was adapted from a boring shark tank pitch. i still don't really understand what i'm going to be riding in 18 months or whatever. it sounds like a synopsis of a bad microsoft teams meeting.

if this was truly inspired by a northeastern deli, it's missing: copies of the post, daily news, and/or newsday that everyone reads for free while they're waiting a (somehow) still-functioning neon mets budweiser sign from the late 1980's a signed picture by an obscure early '90s yankees star...

glad this thread hasn't gone off the rails at all...

he probably just shook a magic 8 ball, as we know most CEOs of multinational corporations are such flighty, go-with-the-flow types.

i arrive march 2, so if disney wants to drop the mandate before then, that would be lovely. then i can stop pretending there's any use at all to the blippi etsy mask i've been trying to get my two-year-old -- who had symptomatic covid two weeks ago -- acclimated to before we get there.

okay, so i doubt anyone is actually going to sell a popcorn bucket for $270. but let's say people are willing to...stand in line for 8 hours to make a $100 profit? weird. i value my time more than $12.50 an hour, but whatever. more power to 'em, i guess. i guess my biggest quibble is...let's...

i think it's probably because common sense doesn't pass scientific method. there was no control arm of this duke study. i.e., there can be no conclusions drawn from this. a helpful twitter thread from david zweig explaining this, and his subsequent conversation with the authors of the study that...

did it? study here: https://statsiq.co1.qualtrics.com/public-dashboard/v0/dashboard/5f78e5d4de521a001036f78e#/dashboard/5f78e5d4de521a001036f78e?pageId=Page_f6071bf7-7db4-4a61-942f-ade4cce464de

better baseball player? explain babe ruth brett gardner

again, you didn't read the whole thing. growth is not exponential, and there is inherent immunity in the population. these are legitimately easy principles to grasp provided you're focused on more than, 1) doing back-of-the-napkin math that literally any 1st grader could do, and 2) being right...

this is not the estimated fatality rate. this was an early guess by fauci et al at a CASE rate in march. from extensive testing, we have discovered this is not true at all, as we know there is a very large number of asymptomatic and very mild cases. estimate INFECTION fatality rate has ranged...

holy smokes this is arguably the worst and misinformed post i've ever read on here. and that's saying something.
