You cannot tell if someone is physically impaired just by looking at them. There are plenty of disabilities that impair you physically that aren't visible to the outside eye. I agree with getting scooters parked out of the way so that wheelchairs have access, but I don't think making sweeping judgements about other people's ability status is at all appropriate or even accurate in this case.

It doesn't sound like this would be browsing though, this is specific boxes and cases that OP has already picked out and will be asking for, not just perusing through the stacks.

Also the O street mansion is pretty cool. It's a little pricier but the hidden doors and secret rooms to explore would have blown my mind as a kid.

Lexicon Lane costs extra but it was definitely worth it! It's like a linguistics escape room! Full of puzzles and mysteries and clues

Planet Word is a super fun and interactive museum for all ages! It has games and photo opps and karaoke and all sorts of fascinating and engaging stuff. And for a bonus you can grab food downstairs at either Immigrant Food or Atrium Cafe and then eat in Franklin park across the street! They even have a little playground, fountain, plenty of greens spaces, and actually nice public restrooms easily accessible. Plus you're right next to the McPherson Square metro or plenty of buslines if you wanted to travel around the city some more.

yes they always use disability as a "gotcha" point when it comes to advancing their own agendas of car convenience. If they actually listened to disabled voices they'd know that the priorities are greater public access, more accessible public transit, etc. rather than an "attack on parking spaces".

Hey, disabled person here, don't say differently abled. Differently abled is harmful to our community

Players club and the Board Room are both game bars that fit the vibe

Valid, there's plenty of things to be mad at WMATA about lol

Do you really think that people who are obese do not deserve accessible seating? Since you asked you can scope out this article on inclusive and accessible rail design at https://railroads.dot.gov/sites/fra.dot.gov/files/2020-07/Inclusive%20and%20Universal%20Accessible%20Design%20Guidelines%20for%20Next%20Gen%20Passenger%20Rail-A.pdf . The ideal situation would be moveable arm rests, but forgoing arm rests when that's not possible makes the seat more accessible.

Losing arm rests makes seats more accessible. Sometimes that includes fat people, sometimes disabled folks. It's a bummer that you are prioritizing your own luxury of comfort for everyone else's need of access, I hope you reevaluate your perspective
