    I’m not asking a retail worker for permission to pee.

    Will someone please tell the Europeans having to have cash to piss or shit is a crime against humanity?

        In my travels across Europe most countries give a massive middle finger to the disabled. I hear the argument in preserving old building and architecture but you’re essentially walling off an entire sedition of ppl from living normally. As an American living in Germany I’d have a tough time choosing between German cheap Healthcare vs American handicap friendly infrastructure if I was disabled

          Though problem with the US is if your disability prevents you from driving your fucked.

            If you’re in a larger city driving isn’t necessary, the problem is paying for living in a larger city near the public transport stops.

                In rural areas there are organizations that pick up the disabled and elderly that’s covered by the medicare (or Medicad I can never remember the difference). There are limits but it’s something

        Holy shit. I don’t think I ever recall paying more than 0.20€. Granted it has been over a decade since I have paid at a public restroom.
