This channel normally posts board meetings and short progress updates on specific sections of the project in a pretty dry way. This is the first time I've seen them lean into a more engaging method of getting the word out.

Every dead trans woman is a holy spirit that deserves to be worshipped as one of our ancestors (even the ones younger than us that die B4 we do)

I think having agreed upon death rite(s) would be very good for us, I would have more peace of mind about how my death would affect others if I knew my xenosisters were doing nice little magic rituals for me and rituals for themselves to cope
I also would want to do the same for the other girls here; everyone of us deserves like little magic rituals to make their deaths easier

Additionally I think we should have a holiday in each of the five seasons to honour our dead

PLEASE help me make rent? And help a trans woman become a therapist?

Goal: $455/$500 for August!!! ($90/month in subscriptions!)

So I have a big favor to ask: help me make part of my portion of the rent this month. My total portion of the rent is more than this, but my partner can cover the rest as long as I can meet $700 a month. My unemployment insurance will run out soon, so I'm trying to stretch it for a few months, and I can do that with your help!

I am preparing to apply to graduate schools for a masters in social work or a masters in clinical psychology. I am also working with limited spoons from disability and burnout after losing my job earlier this year. With your support, I can focus on my grad school applications and still have capacity to return to writing regularly! If I can't meet this goal, I will need to find at least a part-time job and probably be too stretched thin to write again.

Help me become a therapist and support my writing either by giving at my Patreon or directly to me through my newsletter's website.

Dude named Ben named Justin

If Trump did anything remotely like this, the leftists universally would call it obvious authoritarian fascism and all of the actors “loyalists”. But instead they call Trump’s cabinet speaking out against it obvious authoritarian fascism and loyalists.

Totalitarians always call the oppressed the oppressors and they always believe it with sincerity because that’s what brings themselves to becoming totalitarian.

Off-Season Marketing Strategies for Amusement Parks


 Turning Quiet Months into Opportunities for Growth

Amusement parks thrive on seasonal peaks, often witnessing overwhelming visitor numbers during holidays and school breaks. Yet, the real challenge lies in maintaining profitability during quieter months when attendance dwindles. Effective off-season marketing requires innovation, precise targeting, and creative reallocation of resources. By implementing calculated strategies, parks can transform low-traffic periods into opportunities for revenue generation and brand reinforcement.

Leveraging Seasonal Themes


One of the most direct ways to attract visitors during off-peak times is through thematic events. Transforming the park into a Halloween spectacle, a winter wonderland, or a cultural festival creates fresh appeal for returning guests. These overlays encourage multiple visits per year, as each season offers a distinct atmosphere. A top spin ride cloaked in eerie lighting and sound effects, for instance, takes on an entirely new persona during a Halloween event, delivering an experience different from its standard operation. Such strategies not only drive attendance but also increase secondary spending on food, merchandise, and themed souvenirs.

Targeted Promotions and Dynamic Pricing


In the off-season, price sensitivity becomes more pronounced. Implementing dynamic pricing models—such as discounted weekday tickets, bundled family passes, or “bring-a-friend” offers—can incentivize attendance. Tailored promotions aimed at local residents are particularly effective, as they require lower travel commitment. Membership schemes, offering year-round access at a fixed rate, also encourage frequent visits even during low-demand months. By rewarding loyalty with exclusive perks, parks ensure steady cash flow regardless of seasonality.

Diversifying Audience Segments


During quieter months, the park has the capacity to attract alternative audiences beyond the typical family demographic. Corporate retreats, school field trips, and community events can fill attendance gaps. Parks that promote their venues as multifunctional spaces for conferences, team-building exercises, or educational programs benefit from incremental revenue while broadening brand perception. Facilities adjacent to fairground rides for sale demonstrations, for example, could double as educational showcases of engineering and physics, appealing to schools seeking practical learning environments.

Enhancing Digital Engagement


Digital platforms serve as powerful tools to maintain visibility when visitation slows. Off-season campaigns can highlight behind-the-scenes content, staff interviews, or ride maintenance updates to keep audiences engaged. Interactive campaigns, such as virtual park tours or teaser videos of upcoming attractions, maintain anticipation and build momentum for the next peak season. Limited-time online contests and giveaways further encourage audience interaction, keeping the park relevant in the digital space even when physical foot traffic is light.

Maximizing Ancillary Revenue Streams


When direct ticket sales decline, parks can intensify focus on alternative revenue channels. Branded merchandise, seasonal collectibles, and bundled experiences such as dining packages or photo sessions create additional income. Hosting small-scale concerts, food festivals, or artisan markets within the park leverages existing infrastructure to draw niche audiences. These events ensure that attractions, from a top spin ride to family-friendly carousels, continue to operate with relevance, supporting both guest satisfaction and operational sustainability.

Collaboration and Partnerships


Strategic partnerships expand reach and visibility during low seasons. Collaborating with travel agencies, local hotels, or regional attractions allows for package deals that appeal to tourists and residents alike. Co-marketing campaigns, particularly those tied to cultural or regional celebrations, help sustain visitor flow. Parks can also partner with manufacturers showcasing fairground rides for sale, using the installations as temporary exhibits that double as promotional attractions, offering novelty without permanent capital expenditure.

Utilizing Space for Offbeat Experiences


Amusement parks often possess expansive grounds that remain underutilized during off-seasons. Repurposing these spaces for unconventional activities—such as outdoor movie nights, fitness challenges, or farmers’ markets—keeps the park active and ensures a steady influx of local visitors. Seasonal workshops for children, ranging from art to science-themed projects, can also be hosted within indoor facilities, strengthening the park’s role as a community hub.

Data-Driven Optimization


Off-season strategies are most effective when guided by data. By analyzing visitor behavior, spending habits, and demographic shifts, parks can tailor promotions with surgical precision. For instance, if data reveals that young adults are more likely to attend after work hours, parks can schedule evening entertainment with extended ride operations. Tracking performance metrics ensures that off-season campaigns are not merely experimental but yield measurable returns.

Conclusion


Sustaining profitability during the off-season requires more than discounting tickets. It calls for a multifaceted approach that integrates thematic reinvention, digital engagement, alternative audience cultivation, and strategic partnerships. By creatively repositioning existing assets such as a top spin ride, and exploring collaborations involving fairground rides for sale, amusement parks can ensure steady relevance and financial resilience throughout the year. The off-season, rather than a liability, becomes an arena for innovation, preparing parks for sustained growth and stronger brand loyalty.
