Many of you know that my true love in life is music, and how it affects the themed entertainment experience.
I spent a year working off and on to create this loop - I call it my love letter to USJ - and I couldn’t be more proud of the results and how the Guests have responded 🥰
I may cry… the king has returned 🥹🥹
It’s okay to grieve for what we could’ve had.
It’s okay to cry. To mourn. To be afraid.
Take some time, I know I am. But then it’s time to get back to work fighting for the America which works for everyone, not just the oligarchs.

Thank you.
I’m not ready to go to bed and wake up with the America that comes next.
I want to stay awake and have it continue being an America I can believe in, but I know that cannot be.
The best thing about USJ isn’t the rides or the shows, it’s these amazing cakes at Beverly Hills Boulangerie.
Unlike 99% of cakes in Japan, these are rich, flavorful, and varied. Over the last 4.5 years none has been any less than a home run
In my top 5 theme park eateries worldwide for sure.
But winter is also just my least favorite time of year, even up against Japanese summer.
The only good January I ever had was 2019, when I moved here. What a time, I can’t believe it’s been six years.
It’s remarkable how much January consistently sucks. Every year.
Coming down from the highs of the holidays and New Years, all you’re left with is bracing cold and grey skies, dead trees and grass, and everyone else being about as miserable as you.
Japan’s war on nature continues… the latest victim is a lovely tree outside my station 🥲
Used to provide such great shade while waiting for the light during summer too…
This may be Disney sacrilege but… I think Shanghai Disneyland has better popcorn than TDR 🫣
FIVE STARS FOR THE WICKED 🤩
I know not everyone is necessarily a fan of TRON, but I was one of the five people who adored TRON: Legacy from the get go. This ride is everything I could possibly want except for being a tad short. But hey, I love it anyway!
First snack of the day: Anna’s Hot Orange Egg Tarts. 4/5 stars for me! 🤤
Happy holidays from Shanghai Disneyland 😁
Yeahhh it’s a good premise but she only sings like one and a half songs the entire movie, The Rock is insufferable, Shiny is so bad… it just loses me.
That being said, the Moana/Frozen sequence in Believe is one of my favorite bits from any night show
I mean… you know how I feel about the first Moana. Not really hyped for the second 😂
I mean, the Splash ones were still out well past close, I can’t imagine there’s an almighty rush even once a close date is announced
Skytree superiority. You know the way.
Lovely! I’ve always enjoyed the old TDL logo
(Just one little nitpick - Shanghai Disneyland, not Disneyland Shanghai 😅)
As I wear my Hogwarts Spirit Jersey, I reflect on the fact that it would definitely be so much better if I could stop caring about Harry Potter because JK is a horrible woman… buuuuut sadly it’s not that easy 😅
I don’t think I could ever trust someone who doesn’t like The Princess Bride. I’ve literally never met someone who has seen this and doesn’t like it
Well this is heartbreaking. So glad we’re losing the best 3D movie ever made for a theme park rather than *checks notes* the abandoned animation studio husk
I’ll have it etched in a lucite pylon for you. Extra bunting. What an aesthetic it’ll be!
That’s such an aesthetic statement
They could bring in the starry skies they use in Shanghai and Tokyo, I think that’s a fair compromise
Father in Carousel of Progress
Oh, haha, I’m sorry, I forgot—we’re posting on BlueSky now! Same kind of thing, different name. Well, that’s progress for you.
Somehow I’ve been home from California for almost a month and STILL haven’t moved the Disneyland app off my home screen in favor of the blue globe app 😂
Hello I’m Spencer and I finally did the thing. Let’s see if this actually gets me to stop using Twitter because Threads and Mastodon sure didn’t 😂
