Not to jump on you, but we have steel straws for a paralyzed relative. They can’t drink without assistance unless they have a conveniently placed container with a straw; even then, something like a soda can is impossible for them to drink out of without a straw.
But yes, paper straws are garbage and plastic straws are generally unnecessary.
thank you for reminding me of my privilege in society and how silly my little issues are… not being facetious
