Last night there was a candlelight vigil held at the Magic Kingdom at park close to honor the victims of the Pulse massacre. It was unofficial and not sponsored by Disney in any way. And yet, Disney showed their solidarity and respects in a uniquely Disney way.

After the nightly “Kiss Goodnight,” the atmosphere music was shut off and all of Main Street was cloaked in dead silence as hundreds of people held candles, phones, and glow sticks into the air. And then, in an unexpected show of support, the colors of the castle changed from red to yellow, then green and blue and finally purple.

Disney also allowed working cast members to attend in costume and even shut down a few of the Main Street shops. Emporium cast members, who lost one of their own in the shooting, stood directly in front of the castle with a heart made of glow sticks. Inside the heart, among the candles, were trinkets and small things that cast and guests left to show their respects such as stickers, celebration buttons, maps, even Photopass cards and Mickey ears.

As guests exited the park, they were handed rainbow Mickey pins or Mickey love pins by working cast members. And cast members who left through the tunnels were handed rainbow Mickey antenna toppers.

I cannot put into words how comforting and important it is to see Disney showing their support for the LGBT+ community. They didn’t have to acknowledge the vigil at all but they did and they made it more magical than anyone expected.

Orlando friends, if this man comes to pick you up for an uber ride, DO NOT get in the car. The entirety of my trip with him, he was talking about his female customers, referring to them as either “fuckable” or “not fuckable” and told me that he knows one of my employees, and how “she has a great fuckin rack bro.” He referred to a prior customer as “a trick whose boyfriend is pimping her out” as well. He clearly sees women as sexual objects. I refuse to believe that a man who is willing to make these kinds of remarks to a stranger, would be able to contain himself if he were to come into contact with a woman in real life. As always, be safe when using Uber because you never know who is picking you up.

Boost this to get the word out and keep the women of Orlando safe. The perpetuation of sexism and rape culture should not be tolerated by any means. I have contacted uber and they are reviewing his file, and meeting with him to decide whether or not he will be allowed to remain an uber partner, but until we are certain that he is no longer contracted as a driver, it is important that everyone stays safe. Thank you for taking the time to read this. Please be safe out there.
