Chasing the dream.
Disney's corporate "culture" is very firmly conservative and they have very little interest in changing that. They change policies for the theme parks and whatnot when it will financially benefit them. If coincidentally something can be read as being pro gay community that's fine, they're just hoping that no one looks up all of the lawsuits they fought about kicking people out for dancing together. People get confused because of the content of the media they produce but as far as Disney corporate is concerned they mentally divorce themselves from the meaning of the content and consider it a "successful product" if they can make money off it. I worked tech support for them a while back and a week of our training was all about the corporate culture and what's expected. They are downright puritanical internally and will fire a women for wearing a skirt that sits above her knee, or literally anyone for saying a single cuss word. I'm actually surprised they've let Owl House air as long as they have but I'm also not surprised at all that they're killing it early and doing absolutely nothing whatsoever to promote the show. They'll only ever "care" when it means making more money than not caring.

wheres the jester, I could do with some pointless nonsense right about now

You know, i was expecting Dana to to full Alex Hirsch and start tearing into Disney the moment she wasn't getting a paycheck from them anymore (for understandable professionalism/"I'd like to not have the pull plugged on my show or get blacklisted") reasons.

Is she not even going to wait that long?

What does the bill actually do, anyway? This is the first I'm hearing about it.

tbf the plug's already pulled, and with how long the animation pipeline is, a lot of the writing and planning for the specials is probably finished already. She might not have all that much left to do other than sign off on other people's work.

It means that anyone related to schooling can't say anything about gender and sexual identity between kindergarten and third grade.

BeckySucrose

That's what it does? My understanding is that the bill forbids lesson plans focused on gender or sexual identity, not that it prevents faculty from discussing these subjects with students individually. I'm not a lawyer or scholar, though, so my reading of the bill has no more weight than that of any random person.

Oh it's even worse than that. This bill make it so that if a teacher finds out that a kid is LGBTQ+, they are to report it to their parents. You can imagine what this can mean for kids with less than understanding families.

(I believe it does also forbid the mention of such topics in school, which is why it's called DontSayGay, but this is what Dana was referring to when she was talkimg about putting kids in danger)

Thanks a bunch for this. It's really emblematic of the sort of people we are dealing with here. ended up quoting it in the animation thread because it felt relevant. I hope it's okay.

Yeah, it's fine with me.

I haven't worked for them in over 10 years and I'm still hard coded into "Disney speak" at work that I cannot even say words like rear end. At Disney, if you're tech support and want to commiserate with your client you have to say "Oh no, that sure sounds like a pain in the behind!" instead of "wow that's a pain in the rear end." You are heavily discouraged from saying things like "god no" ("heavens no would be OK) because of the blasphemy. I got brainwashed bigtime.

Can you swear by dead/mythological deities or use fictional curse words? "By the Hammer of the Thor what the frak do you think you're doing?"

That depends. If you go too far and the extra evangelical manager was on duty you would absolutely get a talkin to for possible blasphemy. That lady was loving nuts.

Anyways, super excited for the season to start back up again! I need more Eda and King in my life.
