#Math disability

[xxstorm86skytte]

Okay my new discord server is set up! Again it’s going to be a support group for people in school who have learning challenges, such as adhd, autism, dyslexia, math disabilities, social anxiety, etc and much more! Whether you’re in school or not, neurodivergent or not, all are welcome, but it will be about neurodiversity. I can’t guarantee it will be a success because it’s hard but I’m giving it a try! It’s still empty because it’s brand new but I hope to fill it with lots of individuals, feel free to reblog<3 here it is!

Having Discalculia is like having a computer crash every time you see an equation. The teacher wonders why you keep overthinking it, but you can't tell them why. Leads to feelings of failure and worthlessness because you can't 'just figure it out' like your peers. Always feeling like your lesser than, and like your not smart. It hurts, it really hurts.

Relearning math is a pain in the ass and I still hate fractions

love when men cry about body hair bc "it's hygiene" and yet 15% of cis men leave the bathroom without washing their hands at all and an additional 35% only just wet their hands without using soap. that is nearly half of all men. that means statistically you have probably shaken hands with or been in direct contact with one of these people.

love when men say that women "only want money" when it turns out that even in equal-earning homes, women are actually adding caregiver burdens and housework from previous years, whereas men have been expanding leisure time and hobbies. in equal-earning households, men spend an average of 3.5 hours extra in leisure time per week, which is 182 hours per year - a little over a week of paid vacation time that the other partner does not receive. kinda sounds like he wants her money.

love that men have decided women are frail and weak and annoying when we scream in surprise but it turns out it's actually women who are more reliable in an emergency because men need to be convinced to actually take action and respond to the threat. like, actually, for-real: men experience such a strong sense of pride about their pre-supposed abilities that it gets them and their families killed. they are so used to dismissing women that it literally kills them.

love it. told my father this and he said there's lies, damned lies, and statistics. a year ago i tried to get him to evacuate the house during a flash flood. he ignored me and got injured. he has told me, laughing, that he never washes his hands. he has said in the last week that women are just happier when we're cooking or cleaning.

maybe i'm overly nostalgic. but it didn't used to feel so fucking bleak. it used to feel like at least a little shameful to consider women to be sheep. it just feels like the earth is round and we are still having conversations about it being flat - except these conversations are about the most obvious forms of patriarchy. like, we know about this stuff. we've known since well before the 50's.

recently andrew tate tried to justify cheating on his partner as being the "male prerogative." i don't know what the prerogative for the rest of us would be. just sitting at home, watching the slow erosion of our humanity.

#writeblr #warm up #ps edited so it is more clear where “half” of men is coming from: #15% literally don't even touch water #an ADDITIONAL 35% ''wash'' by just running their hands under water WITHOUT SOAP #15+35 =50% #like that is not washing ur hands. go back and use soap #btw the numbers for women are 4% never washing and 15% ''just water'' #which is still gross but like. sooo much better yikes #ps i know we're all gay on this site but watching ppl ''correct'' my math on this has been wild #i have a learning disability im genuinely bad at math so i check EVERY time someone corrects me #but no they're just confidently wrong..... #182 hours is a week babes. 182/24 (number of hours in a day) is ~7.6 #that's where i got that number from. also from rent we know there's 168 hours in a week. #ALSO btw if u read this and ur response is ''men are also struggling rn tho'' like babe you missed the point of it tho #this doesn't even make fun of men it's legit just pointing out that bigotry against women isn't founded #in anything men actually CARE about . like they don't actually CARE about ''being clean'' when they make fun of armpit hair #or they would be WASHING THEIR HANDS. #men pretend to be rollin' in cash and Apex Predators and instead they are trained to be lazy and unwilling to act in emergencies #i have never and will never make fun of men for asking for more support on important topics like DV and mental health. #this is so clearly not about men; it's about how common just being plainly misogynistic has become. #like they don't try to hide it anymore.

Shout out to people with dyscalculia or math struggles, basically. I am with you. I am here for you. I see you. It sucks, and most of the world doesn't even know about dyscalculia. But it'll be ok. It won't go away but people will help you, you can adapt. I love you. Screw math ❤

#dyscalculia #discalculia #it's not just “math dyslexia” by the way #It's so much more than “just maths dyslexia” #not saying people with dyslexia have it better off at all just saying it's a different disorder and we have no awareness or visibility #neurodivergent #neurodivergence #neurodiversity #I hate maths #learning disability #learning disorder

I have a very love-hate relationship with math. On one hand, when I get and understand it, I love it, and I feel proud of myself for understanding it. And when I don't get it, and have to spend long hours having one problem explained to me, I want to burn it, think it's stupid, and who the fuck made up rules like that, they barely make sense?? What were they on when they made those rules??

Like on one hand, as an alter, I hold dyslexia, and apparently that makes math easier for me and "lowers" dyscalculia, but on the other hand, who made these and can I have a friendly chat with them.

having a super short memory but being good at understanding math concepts is so funny.

"no i dont remember how to do division but can you please put me in the higher level math class the normal one is too slow"

this is really petty but i Have to say it because it's Really funny to me. when i first made that "being a disabled warrior cats fan" post i got a lot of anons (that i deleted bc if you want me to answer your ask and you're also annoying you must cashapp me 10 dollars) saying "aren't Most warrior cats fans disabled? i mean Everyone in this fandom has autism-" my brother in christ. warrior cats has never had two background characters outright call a main character the r slur. it has also never had a character who was semi-canonically sent to hell for being mad about being autistic. it has also never introduced an autistic child just to have it die painfully in front of its mother for the express purpose of traumatizing the abled people who witness it. it has never had an autistic character need to be taught how to cope with their disability by their allistic boyfriend. it has never explicitly said that autistic people are turned allistic when they die and are therefor better off dead. some things are just not about you

#i also say cripple like. multiple times in that series of posts #which you'd think would like. give it away #i say this As an autistic person btw it's friendly fire #sees a post about how it's complicated being a fan of books that routinely treat phys disabled people like shit #decides that this experience is not actually that unique because most fans are Mentally disabled #there's just a level of math i'm not getting here

I took the math test and I did it! I always struggled with math and I wanted to score high enough to at least get into the most basic math classes they have at my school, and I did it! I can take the basic math classes in the fall! I was so nervous, but I did it! Yes!!! 📐📏

Whatever skills or knowledge you think is "universal" absolutely isn't, and when you understand this, you can understand deeper how people experience the world. There are so many things that are deemed "common knowledge" that just aren't to some people.

Maybe you think it's common knowledge to know how to eat, for example. But it isn't common knowledge for me; I don't know how to eat because of my disabilities and because of my history. I can physically eat, yes, but the knowledge of how and when is something I never learned. I can absolutely learn, sure, but it is a time and energy investment, which is why I hadn't done so before.

What would help me more: being belittled and demeaned because I don't "know" something like a normal person would or being educated in an understanding way? Now, apply this to other people who struggle with things you think are "fool-proof," and you will start to understand how people operate when they aren't "normal"

#disability #disability advocacy #food mention tw #disordered eating tw #this isn't solely a disability thing but the venn diagram often overlaps when 'common knowledge' is the topic #this applies to hygiene and 'basic' math/language/ect. and how things work and so many other things #i used myself as an example because i have felt so much needless shame for not knowing 'basic' shit as a result of trauma and disability #and it's just. pointless cruelty. like the cruelty is the point sure but like. why. why kick somebody who is down

I keep seeing people talk about the boys ages and age differences and I realized nobody on Tumblr can do math.

Edwin was 16 in 1916, meaning he was born 1900. He came back from Hell in 1989, which would mean he’s technically 89 in 1989.

Now stay with me

If the show takes place winter of 2023 or winter 2024, Edwin would be 123/124

Using this same logic for Charles, he was 16 in 1989, meaning he was born 1973.

So 2024 - 1973, Charles would be 50/51.

Just because they don’t physically age doesn’t mean they are unaware of time passing or the fact things change around them.

dyscalculic atsushi save me......... save me dyscalculic atsushi..........

#his ass can Not do math #(<- once again projecting onto my favorite characters) #hc that kunikida tried tutoring him once and immediately suspected that atsushi was dyscalculic bc he used to be a math teacher #ofc he can recognize learning disabilities. and atsushi is just like “wtf is that” #bc the orphanage definitely didnt get him diagnosed #and he had No Idea what dyscalculia was #anyways. live laugh love dyscalculic detective agency #bsd headcanons #bungo stray dogs #bsd #atsushi nakajima #atsushi #bsd atsushi #atsushi headcanons

it's always such a strange thing when people say stuff like, "oh, my developmental cognitive delay, mental illness, etc NEVER gets believed in, not like PHYSICALLY disabled people," or, "oh, I NEVER get accommodations for my physical conditions in school, not like other students' LEARNING disabilities," "THIS kind of thing I experienced is uniquely oppressive and one of many roots of evil in the world, other power structures & people in positions of authority are NOT as harmful as the one I experienced, and the world is soooo much nicer & easier to everybody & every kind of cripple except me"

like I know of all the social media platforms tumblr has the rep of being the pity party site, but while you truly may have suffered and nobody is here to diminish that, y'all are moving very weirdly through life

#just saw a post abt gym teachers being sooooo much more abusive creepy & underqualified than academic teachers #and how gym is useless & has NO accommodations unlike how in math or english student accoms. must be honored & material must be taught well #my baby your experiences are nawt universal lmao #and the weird ableist elitism & snobbery of it all is deeply bizarre #like i've had shitty gym teachers who were freaks about people's capacity skill disability etc but you think MATH is better?? bffr lol

[holierthanth0u]

its really shocking to see people who make fun of me COMPLETELY tuck their tail between their legs after finding out im disabled. because quite frankly, making fun of someone isnt okay even if they have no "real reason" for being like that.

#someone called me stupid for practicing 2nd grade math. he only apologized AFTER i explained i have a learning disorder. #“why do you walk like that lmao its weird” im disabled you dipshit #actually autistic #autistic things #autism #invisible disability #disability rights #physical disability #disabled #disability #asd #neurodivergent

Dyscalculia is more than just "dyslexia but with numbers".

It's not knowing if gas prices went up or down because the numbers all look the same.

It's looking at the clock and thinking that "it's been 6:42 for a really long time.." when over 10 minutes have already passed.

It's not being able to tell time on an analog clock.

It's not being able to read a map or understand north from south.

It's not being able to understand how exactly you can travel from point a to point b and wind up in a different spot on a map.

It's not being able to do simple math in your head and using paper, your fingers, or a calculator to do math.

It's not understanding how 3D space works, and struggling with 3D crafts and art.

It's teachers, students, parents and friends thinking you're stupid because you just don't understand anything dealing with math.

It's failing math class and being sent to remedial math.

It's crying at the kitchen table, because you're literally incapable of understanding the problem in front of you. And your parents are angry about it because it's so simple! What do you not understand about it!

Just know if you have dyscalculia, you are not stupid. You have a learning disability.
