I mean this in a kind and friendly way: your respons

I'm certainly sorry if it came across that way, but the disability I thought it was mostly about was ADHD, which I do have (well, probably, I don't know how to pursue a diagnosis), and which was the only disability specifically mentioned in the original post, and as part of that there's sometimes this problem where you get stuck in a loop of something where you can only do it if it's one way. So that's who I'm meaning to address-- if you think you can only drink water if you have your water bottle because that is the routine you have, I'm saying, there are other options. If you have a disability where you can only drink out of a bottle, which I apologize, was not a thing I had really thought about, then this is indeed a wildly inappropriate answer.

No, I surely do not intend that people who can't take my advice should take it, and I'm sorry, I forgot that this is the era of the Internet where we don't have context, we don't just talk to people who know us, and we therefore can't assume good-faith intentions by speakers anymore. I know that also sounds condescending but I genuinely do mean it-- I was fully flabbergasted within my own assumed context, and did not think of other contexts there. The post did not mention special water bottles for disablities etc., or anything of the sort, so I didn't pick that up. I don't know if that's ADHD of me or what, because again, diagnosis beyond reach (you have to have executive function to pursue it, it turns out, and I'm using mine up not dying of other things apparently), maybe it's just me missing the point like I generally do.

So, yeah, no, if you can't do a thing, then you shouldn't do it, whatever lifehacks you can do to manage your conditions you can do, you should do them, and I suppose a note to my future self, if a post seems really wildly weird to you, you're probably missing the fucking point of it, but this note will not do me any good because I will forget it when I next need it (after dwelling on it in every quiet moment between now and then, of course, because that is the way).

So, cool, how many of my other notifications are people also mad at me for missing this same point? Let's find out. (Your picture was not posted)
