I do feel kind of old though that my first thought in seeing that would be of the "gay friendly" days and non-discrimination in the parks (well aware that record has not been spotless either). My culty church of my childhood used to protest the parks on "Gay Days" and boycotted it the rest of the year and it was a very big Bad Thing That Will Ruin Our Country because Disney wouldn't denounce or discriminate against the people coming in.

I'm kind of glad that someone else's first thought might be to roll their eyes and assume that the person getting the tattoo was ignorant to Disney's problematic at best decisions for their films and franchises and the objection is to it being a media conglomerate. Totally not denying that's a problem. But to me that is kind of progress, where of course it is not unique for LGBTQ+ folks to feel welcome and wanted at any amusement park or vacation chain, so why would that be even thought of.

But by the same token? Maybe it's just a stupid tattoo, totally could be. I've totally seen stupider (to me) ones, but I'm sure their wearer must have liked them just fine.
