    They all had chairs near the changing room, now not a single store has one.

    you know what? i’m a disabled person who needs to sit. i’m going to start making ADA requests for sitting areas.

      Yep, I currently gotta get around with a cane.

      Can’t stand up for more than about 15 minutes straight.

      Went to the DMV the other day… strategically sat myself next to a pair of 20ish yo brothers, waited untill it was maybe 15 minutes till my ticket would be up, and asked if one of em could pull the chair I was sitting in over to the actual service window thing.

      Thankfully this worked, they were mostly happy to have someone to chat with…, one of them’s phone had died and they kept trying to check it…

      But uh yeah, yeah… you’d think it would maybe occur to, I don’t know, a presumably ADA compliant government office, that there exist mobility states in between ‘fully mobile’ and ‘in a wheel chair’.

      Oh also yeah just fuck you and die if you wanna take busses anywhere, can’t have homeless people with anything resembling a bed, therefore if you’re crippled, well just suck it up buttercup.

      That’s messed up. Here I am just complaining. I didn’t even think about folks who legit need to sit. I’m so sorry, friend. That sucks.
