Had an amazing morning at the Rumsey Map Center looking at 13 Disneyland maps (1958-2005). Sooo many interesting tidbits, especially when you compare across time.

Currently in Hong Kong and learned that the Chinese translation of my live streaming book has come out 😊 Have not seen it firsthand (yet?) but learned it's available through the usual online sellers fwiw.

Belatedly hi5'ing Martens for this piece. (As someone who has long studied games, I'm familiar with the judgement/stigmatization adults often get in the face of their leisure choices but it's on a whole other level when it comes to theme parks.)

T.L. Taylor @tltaylor.bsky.social · 26/05/2026

as someone doing a project on play in theme parks (and Disney specifically) this is pretty interesting!

We were treated to a showing of the new doc Halcyon Daze tonight (www.halcyondazefilm.com). Really cool chronicle of the life & impact of the Galactic Starcruiser on the people who got to experience it. It’s hitting the festival circuit soon but you can still snag a digital copy for a bit longer!

Back in Orlando for Halcy-Con. Have I mentioned how fun fieldwork has been for this project on play in theme parks? 🤩 Assuming my role of intergalactic ethnographer means I’ll be dressing up again.❤️ the fantastic toy thermal print camera I’ve added to my gear (with some Aurebesh customization 😉)

❤️ AARP reporting on the landscape of 50+ players (of which I'm decidedly one 😆). The numbers often surprise folks, as does the diversity found in that cohort. I generally caveat industry reports, but until other outlets (*coughPewcough*) start tackling, I'll take it! www.aarp.org/pri/topics/s...

Gamers 50-Plus Are a Growing Force in the Tech Market

The number of gamers 50-plus has grown to 52.4 million, according to a recent AARP survey, and they're ready to spend on games designed with them in mind

Fellow internet studies friends: fascinating right now to listen in/watch on the platform itself as the SC debates the TikTok ban. Looking forward to reading future work on this!

One of the most important podcast series you can listen to is Charismatic Revival Fury which does a deep dive into Christian Nationalism and Trump. Seriously, please listen. More crucial than ever to be informed about this intersection. www.straightwhiteamericanjesus.com/episodes/cha...

It’s a national student-led movement now. A good illustration of why authoritarians target universities.

As a faculty member I’ve felt pride in seeing our students tackling what is happening in Gaza. I’m encouraged when visiting MIT’s encampment and yesterday offered an amazing lesson in de-escalation. Please read and get a glimpse of what is possible ❤️ sites.mit.edu/allianceofco...

Happy to announce that, due to the support of the MIT Libraries and @mitpress.bsky.social, my first two books are now available as free PDF's ❤️ While they are very much histories at this point, hopefully they will still hold tidbits of interest!
