Seems like a weird thing to decide heading into a recession.

Heading into a recession? Getting ahead of ourselves there.

Club 33 magic bands seem like a bad idea to the pessimistic side of me. Find one of those lying on the ground, then you know to use it to get in the club. Good thing you need a pin for purchases at least.
You'd have to play it cool when you get inside and just ask for a glass of water.

Thats the nature of Reccessions we shall see, in saying that, if one is coming. DVC raising the number of points required for benefits will have a double edge sword. We shall see a rise in resales at a cheaper price, which means less people who will be able to use those benefits, so the cost per point to Disney goes down, aka makes more profit over the remaining life of the contract. At the same time Disney will have to work harder to sell DVC anyway. With Riveria this year and the reflections in the next couple years as well as Lighhouse Point possibly being DVC, it might actually keep the price of DVC relatively stable for Direct buys, something that hasnt been happening between new DVCs being available in awhile. IF Disney is playing the long game this actually makes alot of since.

In saying that, Im not going to be angry if Reflections per point price is the same as the Rivera, a recession should make the DVC promotions at that time pretty good.

Now Im not saying I want another recession, Im just looking towards the positive if there is one.

This was all balanced out by having the Halloween parties in August.

I am reading that book now - it feels like almost a tourguide of Black Spire Outpost as it mentions all the shops and shop owners and food, etc. Also explains the Resistance being there a lot and just gives a lot of background to the land

Did Mizner's have an outdoor patio area? Or is this something being added or will it be like an indoor space but made to look like an outdoor patio?

Glad I skimmed that entire article, because I found this interesting tidbit:

"All episodes of Marvel’s Runaways season three drop on Friday, December 13th only on Hulu."

You don’t actually know you’re in a recession until after it starts. Economics is weird like that.

Actually not true. Two consecutive quarters of no or negative growth is how it’s defined. There is plenty of data available to forecast growth that is pretty accurate. Some recessions become a self fulfilling prophecy based on the predictions
