I still don't but I can see how others are answering it.Without computer technology, I would tell myself stories and they would go no further. I have a variety of cognitive challenges that affect how words and spelling co-exist with my brain.

I was told not to bother with cursive because of my dyslexia. Despite my fondness for calligraphy at the time. It never occurred to my teachers that enjoyment is the best way to get a handle on <a href="https://mastodon.nl/tags/dyslexia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#dyslexia</a> 🤷‍♀️ I add a bar through my Zs like that.

Juggling With EggsFor those like Hitchens who still think <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/Dyslexia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Dyslexia</a> has exploded in the 21st century because of lazy, woke, leftwing teachers…try reading this. Then imagine you are a young child who cannot read..but desperately wants to read and catch up with their classmates: <a href="https://geon.github.io/programming/2016/03/03/dsxyliea" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">https://geon.github.io/programming/2016/03/03/dsxyliea</a>

Juggling With EggsWhile reactionary dinosaurs like Hitchens seem to wonder why life didn’t just stay caught in the aspic of their blinkered 1950’s childhood…Cambridge researchers believe that <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/dyslexia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#dyslexia</a> actually played a key part in human survival, exploration, invention and creativity. Having worked with many innovative dyslexics I know where my money is. And yes, one of those is my partner, a librarian.<a href="https://www.cam.ac.uk/research/news/developmental-dyslexia-essential-to-human-adaptive-success-study-argues" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.cam.ac.uk/research/news/developmental-dyslexia-essential-to-human-adaptive-success-study-argues</a>

Juggling With EggsI’m sure Peter Hitchens writes vile stuff in the Daily Fail most weeks, but this has belatedly caught my eye from a few days ago.

Joseph FingerHey <a href="https://floss.social/@XOrgFoundation" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@XOrgFoundation</a> and fedi in general, I wanted to know your opinion.

SecondUniverseI ask periodically but haven't found an answer yet. My partner has dyslexia, and I definitely don't have that (I can easily help her spell any word she asks), but I when typing I transpose S/2/5, 1/L and of course 0/O. I also substitute words like suitcase/briefcase. I also reverse the order of letters. When reading, numbers in particular, the digits seem to shift around, and if a digit is repeated I struggle to count how many times it is repeated. Is there a name for this? <a href="https://autistics.life/tags/actuallyAutistic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#actuallyAutistic</a> <a href="https://autistics.life/tags/dyslexia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#dyslexia</a> <a href="https://autistics.life/tags/brain" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#brain</a> <a href="https://autistics.life/tags/neuroscience" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#neuroscience</a>
