I used to work in Oral-B, and one quick tip for using your power toothbrush: let the brush head clean one tooth at a time. The round brush head is meant to cup each tooth to clean it thoroughly. If you are more used to the "sawing" motion, you should get a longer brush head, or a sonic-technology toothbrush.

Seriously though, I live in my truck and my pee setup is right there close to me when I'm sitting at the desk-thing I built, right -- and it really does make me better about drinking more water because it's more convenient to pee when I need to (I'm not very body-aware so it's easy for me to accidentally ignore physical needs for long periods) because of the convenience of being able to do it without having to break away from the task I'm doing, since changing states/tasks is a big job for my ADHD brain. Previously I would struggle with subconsciously hydrating less and less because my body and brain would work together to prioritize convenience and not-having-to-pay-attention instead. Point is, I vote we normalize solutions like this even for people who are housed, because neurodivergent people like me can benefit from it and there's nothing wrong with changing systems to enable better tendencies in ourselves. Rah rah, destigmatize pee containers! 😝

You are the only who convinced me to buy an electric toothbrush. I derided them from many years as being for the lazy and rich. But after I saw this video a few weeks back, it has been at the back of my mind. I finally decided to research more and realized that there's a lot more to an electric toothbrush than just comfort-it cleans way better. So, thank you, Ali. There aren't many videos on KZread, no matter how useful, that can immediately impact you in a practical and positive way unexpectedly.
