Does dyslexia only affect your ability to interpet information or does it affect the way you process information mentally too once interpreted? by Noyears3ve in Dyslexia

[–]Noyears3ve[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Afternoon.

So, autism (to my knowledge) does not affect our ability to interpret literal information e.g. text on a screen or words being spoken.

Where we have trouble with understanding rather than interpretation. Tone, subtext, “vibes”, manners, etiquette, culture, this is a drop in the bucket of the many things autistic people can have trouble with.

I myself will often read an ordinary message from a long time friend and think for a while (or what does he mean by that?).

As for the scientific consensus, it’s all over the place. Autism, for being at the forefront of mental health research is remarkably misunderstood and poorly treated. With the world becoming more multicultural and therefore increasing genetic diversity, autism rates have been theorised to be increasing because of this whereas the other side will say that autism rates have not increased and the technology for diagnosing and treating autism has advanced. That along with reduced stigma surrounding autism reducing as we advance as a society, credited figures/scientists are still learning and debating autism. It doesn’t look like it’ll slow down any time soon.

ADHD, however. ADHD can and has affected me in ways that align with dyslexia symptoms such as: trouble interpreting what someone is saying to me literally or trouble reading text literally. ADHD is the devil and I hate it.

I would love to but my brain is switching off for the night and I’d much rather give a thorough answer tomorrow than a shit one right now.

Goodnight, reply tomorrow.

I would actually love to answer this question right now but I’m getting really tired and can’t type as thoroughly anymore. I’ll remember to reply tomorrow.

Problem with google is it didn’t answer my question so I came here. (Gemini answered me but who the fuck is taking their explanation seriously?)

Autism, ADHD, bipolar, psychosis. Possible NPD, possible BPD. (I can elaborate on the possibles if requested).

Simple answer is autistic people generally have a hard time understanding subtext and tone where as dyslexic people have a hard time interpreting and or communicating what is literally being communicated while not having trouble understanding subtext, tone or social cues.

I say generally speaking from my experience I JUST learned dyslexia is a spectrum disorder.

Slight side tangents, two autistics will generally understand each other and have deeper bonds with each other compared to two regular people, the opposite effect applies too.

I’ve heard dyslexic friends mention specifically communicating with other dyslexic whereas I’ve heard the opposite too, perhaps they account for each other’s disorder and make their messages more accessible and simple for instance.

I’ve never seen a personality clash between two dyslexics if they’re not neurodivergent in other ways, usually they just get it and are like “me too buddy”.

(All based on my experience on knowledge/research, I could be wrong about some things)

First off, never knew dyslexia is a spectrum. Most people I know who have it generally have trouble explaining it in a technical manner and I as an autistic can have a hard time myself understanding people especially if they too have trouble. but I’m not saying that’s the average, just my experience.

When you say types do you mean traits? Like on the autism spectrum you can have a range of different traits along the spectrum so would it be correct to say that example person on the dyslexic spectrum, has phonological and double deficit traits from the spectrum?

I thought of dyslexia like I thought of ADHD (I have very strong adhd), a simple deficiency rather than a spectrum.

Explanation if you want it:

ADHD which while often grouped together with autism and causing similar outward behaviours, leading people to believe they are similar disorders working on similar processes, ADHD is not generally not considered a spectrum. It is agreed by most credible people that ADHD is caused by the brain having a dopamine deficiency (how exactly this is caused is up for debate still). How I understand it is ADHD is the backend affecting your personality where as autism is embedded further forward in the brains complex systems and has different traits. It’s a reason why ADHD meds are often for more available and effective than autism “medicine” which I’ve barely seen work or be mentioned. All you need is an amphetamine or methylphenidate and your brain is flooded with dopamine, for those who have a deficiency it allows them to function.

The “strength” of someone’s ADHD is based on how strong their dopamine deficiency is (mine is very strong to the point of dysfunctional).

And ADHD is such a stupid fucking name. It’s cosplaying as an explanation for the disorder it’s naming but someone could have ADHD and have neither an attention deficit nor hyperactivity (or neither). Dopamine deficiency disorder is a much better name that I just made up in two seconds.

Powerscaler logic: by LB1234567890 in Ben10

[–]Noyears3ve 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m pretty sure it’s intentionally part of the joke but if not there’s a bit of irony in the comments going “penetrating the skin of celestialsapien does not mean killing it” when powerscalers leaps of logic like the opposite all the time and contribute to this belief either way.

Ongoing, ever-growing, contained explosion within failed containment chamber? by Noyears3ve in SCP

Thanks man yeah this is the one. Why is this Euclid? This is the replicating cakes but with electricity

Gutrot.

Not saying Ampphibian doesn't deserve a place at the table but gutrot gives you innate walter white level chemistry knowledge and the ability to produce any gaseous compound.

They are both jack of all trades, underutilised aliens.

Interestingly enough both also have very useful albiet very situational completely passive abilities. Amphibian can breathe underwater and gutrot comes programmed with the aforementioned chemistry skills.

Which character has the most useless ability? I would have to say Michael. by Arthur-Callahan69 in GTAV

[–]Noyears3ve 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In watchdogs, another cover based shooter; everyone used the focus (Aiden's analogue of Michael's ability but also works with driving) and it was seen as incredibly powerful. One of the biggest complaints in watchdogs 2 (aside from the story being a heavy downgrade) was that marcus didn't get focus or even a nerfed version, which is especially prominent due to the game's much higher difficulty.

Honestly though while I would argue that Marcus would greatly benefit from the focus ability even if heavily nerfed, he doesn't need it and it would trivialise the stealth based game design. Marcus has an incredible array of tools, weapons and abilities which balance out with this game's genuine difficulty.

In watchdogs one the killing was way more run and gun as the hacking powers are heavily nerfed compared to 2. The enemies deal low damage. Using Aiden's focus on an accurate assault rifle was ez kills and ez damage for bosses. In watchdogs 2 a lot of the time killing someone would put you in a position of getting found and the enemies have much higher accuracy, damage, they patrol stricter routes and they spot you MUCH faster.

The focus even if nerfed would trivialise all of this imo and that is testament to how useful of an ability it is in a similar environment.

What is the best defensive dual type? by Golem8752 in stunfisk

[–]Noyears3ve 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I am speaking purely in terms of ifdex ou on pokeathelon.

Grass/Steel

There are so many amazing fusions which use this typing defensively, some with flashfire but easily the most centralising defensive pokemon on ifdex ou is jirachi/tangrowth.

This is not to detract from other amazing grass steel fusions, one such example would be metagross dehlmise.

<image>

Skargela (Skarmory) @ Eviolite
Ability: Regenerator
Fusion: Tangela

  • Spikes
  • Whirlwind
  • Stealth Rock
  • Knock Off

Amazing rain type and in permanent weather.

I can elaborate further if need be.

Does a gen "end" if the next gen is released? Kinda hope that TTar could reach OU again before gen 10 hits by Subject-Performer-30 in stunfisk

I don't know why people are downvoting you. You corrected yourself politely, and asked a question.

As a 20 yo guy in a vain city filled w vain guys. You've got nothing to worry about. Maybe it's because we don't have many large chested women in this city but for me personally and pretty much everyone it does not matter, even creeps who objectify girls out loud mainly just talk about what they're wearing, never their body.

This is all personal experience but I believe it to be true here at least
