Chronic pain and general malaise ✨️
Feel free to scurry onto more pleasant things
I've attended conventions for years, but this is only the second time I've ever required one of my mobility aids for the entire con- and I was appalled by how rude and impatient everyone was. I recieved backhanded comments when I was allowed to sit early for panels. This was all so disappointing.

Day. Saturday they didn't allow anyone to sit ANYWHERE outside of the paid areas of the con for any reason and I was forced to leave because I can't stand for long periods of time. Sunday was the only day I was able to enter, but I was literally shoved around by everyone the entire day.

They only had two elevators in the two buildings that made up the con, as well as two bathrooms- one of which was only in the building with the convention itself, that required a pass to access
The other was in a building that required a long walk to get to, and was blocked off for at least a full

After the con on the last day, security was still enforcing using the paths they placed for the event so despite myself and two friends being the ONLY people left in the area, they made me limp to the very end of a long hallway and back with my cane, instead of just moving a light barrier slightly
