You can easily get another cm in there and not be at significant risk of spilling it and I’m dyspraxic so more likely than the average person to just randomly fuck up carrying a cup of tea.
Dyspraxia is a learning/developmental condition, broadly similar in cause to dyslexia but presenting different symptoms.
In dyslexia there’s a disconnect or error in the signals sent to and from the eyes so the brain struggles to process them. In dyspraxia there’s a disconnect or error in the signals sent to and from the rest of the body, which means you have difficulty with things like coordination, motor control, balance and also your ability to learn and retain information.
that just makes me wonder more. they mention several times a day though but like for me I bang into the sides of doors or portals or such more than most people I know over the course of a year. Curiously the bane of my school days was not being able to short term memorize at the level my peers could. Was even worse when I got further along and people dropped out of the major. Thing is its not really a totally bad thing as I also notice that when I memorize things I tend to retain it longer. I still know a shakespeare soliloquy and poem I had to memorize for an english class in high school. I pull them out as part tricks on occasion (years between). I also get balance things out of no where but again not daily. Its only noticable over large spans like a year or years so like my wife notices it. Mostly in a what the heck was that way. So yeah given its not daily I don’t think I have it but it makes me wonder if I have like some of the genes.
It’s a spectrum like everything else, you’ve definitely got some of the markers! It’s not a 100% thing either, like it’s not a cerebral injury or a palsy where there’s a specific damage or something.
Like for me I have terrible hand/eye coordination, I have to have my phone keyboard take up most of the screen to hit the right button reliably, I’ll also have what turns into a borderline speech impediment if I’m trying to do something fiddly at the same time. I’ll randomly drop things for no reason or I’ll just spontaneously misstep and end up on the floor every now and then.

4 ain’t bad at all nice work!
wait is that what that means? like i just sorta called myself accident prone but basically I tend to bang into things more often then others.

I’d go 5mm gap if you’re not leaving the room with it, 7mm if you’re nearby on the same floor, 10mm if you’re up or down stairs, or far away :)
I had never figured to leave more of a gap if going upstairs but it makes a lot of sense…
