Every store I go to now doesn’t have a chair. 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.

Shop till you drop, baybee

[–] Akasazh@lemmy.world 25 points 4 days ago

I call them 'men benches' and that's where I'll happily peruse some Lemmy when the missus is shopping

I blame anti-homeless architecture.
It un-normalized sitting.

[–] Madison420@lemmy.world 12 points 4 days ago (2 children)

Gotta get a folding chair in a sheath you can bust out like fuckin blade.

i need a back rest though. not a butt rest.

Their use to be a large hobby store near me that had a section in a corner near the entrance with a TV, a couple of couches and eat chairs, a pretty good selection of movies, Legos, and a couple of video game consoles. Great place.

I have to research before i know which of the clothing shops in a new city has any mens clothes at all. Ratio is ca. 1/4. And then 2/3 is for the business guy body type.

[–] RampantParanoia2365@lemmy.world 23 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Oh, I thought it would be a huge store full of purple and other colors, and then half of one rack in the corner filled with grey, with a sign next to it that says "Fuck You."

[–] The_Picard_Maneuver@lemmy.world 15 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago) (1 children)

No sign, but there is a plain gray/white t-shirt there in the men's section.

(edit: Oh, and a sock and underwear. This place has everything!)

Me whenever we went into Forever21.

There's either a "guy's rack" or there is no mens clothes at all

"We have a men's dept."

bath and body works

sigh

...yeah, technically, I guess 🙄

[–] sp3ctr4l@lemmy.dbzer0.com 19 points 4 days ago (1 children)

I mean I unironically love posting up in a back alley and having a chat with some random smokers/vapers, and I love camping.

Now, I love going shopping with a lady as well, but only if they're honest with themselves and actually give a shit about your fashion sense, as applied to them.

If they're genuinely looking for advice, ideas?

Hell yes, fuck I'd call that a fun date, or at least a part of one.

If they mostly just want you to be there as an affirmation machine?

Byeeeeee~!

[–] cenotaph@piefed.zip 7 points 4 days ago

Affirmation machine/packhorse

[–] Derpenheim@lemmy.zip 17 points 4 days ago

If your partner is interested in your feedback/fashion sense, then Im game. Im not gonna just stand there and go "looks great" on every item for 2 hours.

[–] drunkpostdisaster@lemmy.world 8 points 4 days ago

There are two clothing stores near me and I still have to go halfway across town to buy any clothing for myself.
