Quick guide on how to spot someone faking a disability for a parking spot: you can't.
It's none of your business. You have no idea what someone is going through. Some disabilities are invisible. Disabled does not always mean wheelchair. Stop. Go on with your day.

For the 100th time. Disabled people can be sexual. They can be into bdsm. They can post naked pics online. They can fuck 20 times a day. They can be asexual or never have sex. They can be ANYTHING because they are humans. One thing for sure tho, is they don't want to fuck YOU.
If you have disabled friends, remember that they are most likely never not in pain. Even the good days have a base level of pain which you might not even be able to comprehend. Every outing is a trade off between what pain can be tolerated and how long recovery will be.

Filming your child’s autistic meltdown and posting it for clicks isn’t “awareness.” It’s exploitation. Your kid isn’t content, and their worst moments aren’t yours to monetize. I always see more of this at Christmas. Do better.
This SNAP freeze will kill people. Everyone deserves to eat, everyone, regardless of their situation. If you're one of those people who constantly uses the racist dog whistle 'take care of our own first!!' and you're celebrating this freeze, you're full of it.
