According to independent theme park news blog MiceChat, Disneyland must replace the attraction’s gas-powered mini cars by Feb. 1 with a clean-vehicle alternative or shut it down completely.

Reading it is like driving over endless speedbumps. It feels like the matrix is glitching. I hate it.

Also RIP anyone using a screen reader

Also, it pisses me off that they're trying to revive thorn without doing the same for edh (ð), yogh (ȝ) and ash (æ). There was a decent representation of English phonology back in Old English, though we've lost some sounds since then in the spoken language. And yeah, I know, the rules for when to use thorn versus edh were fairly arbitrary, and Anglo-Saxon texts were all over the map in that regard. Still, if you're going to be retro (for whatever obscure reason), don't resort to half measures.
