    The Running Thread--2024

    Edit: Result is showing now. Not sure what caused this whole bizarre removal. But I got it back and officially set for Grandmas. Don’t mind me need to vent to people who’ll get it. Did a half marathon this morning. Not quiet the time I was hoping for but coming off of a flare and fastest half...

    Yeah the AI generator is a real concern. Considering I’ve already heard on the health insurance end of one person being denied their physical because of an AI on TikTok. AI should not be the end all be all for these kind of decisions. i think at least some of my concern at least now that will...

    When I apply for my DAS in July my current plan is to explain that I have a developmental disorder. And that while I can handle lines in small bursts like the LL. A queue that is in a loud, crowded area, possibly in the sun. (Especially in August!) Will trigger my sensory issues and lead to a...

    I feel like some of this convo is straying away from developmental and towards intellectual disabilities. Which can be comorbid of each other but aren’t 100 percent the same thing. Like I personally fundamentally understand that I can wait in line. But my support needs that are related to my...

    The Rider Swap thing goes back to an issue I’ve had to bring up to Guest Services multiple times. (Usually in relation to location of lines at DLs after hours events last year when I went). Not all disabled folk travel with a party. And even when we do that doesn’t mean one of us is going to be...

    That feels like a bit of a conclusion jump. I have a developmental disorder so I do qualify under the new system. But I also don’t want to see people shut out. But I also have to acknowledge that developmental isn’t limited to just more mental issues among other things. I really don’t want to...

    I’m with @dreamer17555 on this. Reverting back to this feels like it would be punishing us and them even more then we’re getting punished by the revamp. Plus some of the areas where you can scan in are a mess as it is before you add in the DAS scanning in twice (Everest on a crowded day is a...

    Can remain in wheelchair at..?

    I think you might have to ask. Like only hope said there are ride vehicles that can accommodate chairs and scooters. (Ie Small World at DL as well idk about WDW) With the conservation station I actually told them I needed my scooter with me. And I was sent to a spot to back into. They only...

    I definitely agree though I kinda wonder if someone released it as a means of gauging ahead of time if they need to make alterations to what they have planned. Which isn’t the best in terms of everything but I would rather have them realize that they need to maybe rethink something. Then have it...

    I mean sure it happens if you’re lucky. I was walking around with Classic Hashimotos for 2 1/2 years and had doctors ignoring the symptoms and the test results adding up before I finally got a diagnosis in March. Let’s not even start on my neurodevelomental disorder took years of knowing...

    Yeah I really want to know how the heck they’re going to handle certain disorders that can get triggered in queues that don’t fall under this system. This genuinely feels like a problem waiting to happen Like I keep worrying for people who have conditions that can be triggered by sensory...

    DAS changes coming WDW May 20/ DL June 18, 2024

    Yeah and this is unfortunately a real concern for me. (As well? I’m sorry I haven’t seen if your in the same lump of category of rare conditions. Feel free to correct me). I have a condition that around 50 people have. In the entire world. It’s comorbid to more common conditions that still fall...

    Honestly part of me is worried with the working with inspire thing is how it’s going to go down when those of us who have diagnoses that most people have never heard of (med professionals included) have to bring it up. I have a feeling I’m going to start carrying around a copy of the nih...

    There was a big time user whose name I’m forgetting right now who just got trespassed I think for going somewhere they weren’t supposed to. So yeah I would think so. Hell they weren’t the first Disney influencer banned. It’s going to come down whether these people wise up and shut up or not

    There is no way that isn’t a result of the 3rd party groups. And the people who have been bragging about faking their disability. Will that stop these people? No But that has to be why it’s there. To try and stop that group

    I think it’s probably a good time to remember that they have some time to iron out the kinks. Especially for those of us who are next trip isn’t for a few months. Does it suck this is happening? Yeah. But they’ll probably have to make some changes in the coming months again. As they see that...

    DAS changes coming WDW May 20/ DL June 18, 2024

    I know they have an active online presence for years. So I definitely agree us talking should maybe get them to realize there is some flaws already with this system. At least i suppose it wasn’t entirely last minute so they can see the feedback. Admittedly there are other diagnosis that fall...

    DAS changes coming WDW May 20/ DL June 18, 2024

    Yeah I suspect the first couple of months is going to be a bit wild and rough with this new system as they sort out the kinks. And realize that what they think works on paper isn’t going to work in reality. I’m kinda glad my trips not until August now so it has time to sort itself out. Yeah...

    Well there about to get me saying my rare diagnosis I guess… (I have a neurodevelopmental disorder that about 50 people have). Kind of wonder what’s going to happen to those who are stuck in the middle of not having a developmental disorder, not having needs covered by the bathroom pass, and...

    Marathon Weekend 2025

    Oh that was the logic that also got me into my first Dopey. 'I'm going to be doing the 5k with my Mom, and Goofy by myself might as well just make it a full Dopey'.
