OpenDyslexic is a free-to-use font that is designed to help those with dyslexia read better. The text is weighted, having a heavier bottom, which is thought to increase readability for dyslexic people. You can download it for free here.
I don’t have dyslexia myself, but in the event any of my followers do, I thought I’d share. Maybe it will help people.
It totally undermines the character, too, to assume theyre trans. The character has gone through a lot of trauma as a kid as well as an odd upbringing by a borderline abusive parent. As a result, he's super insecure and hides his real emotions a lot. But a lot of people are saying hes insecure and such because he's trans? That just like... makes his entire backstory invalid or something. No, hes not emotionally wrecked because abuse. He's wrecked because he's trans. Its like... what.
AnonymousAbout three things I was absolutely positive. First, tumblr is full of idiots. Second, there is a part of tumblr - and I don’t know how the fuck this happened - that keeps me from leaving. And third, Edward, was a vampire.
I hear you're from Philly, or at least close to it, do you have the famous Philly accent?
AnonymousProbably a bit more fair to say central Pennsylvania, but I drive into Philly more often.
I am not sure that I even have an accent at all. Of course I have an accent, but not like the ones I’ve heard here. People sometimes ask me if I’m a tourist, because of the way I speak. I’ve been living here for nearly a decade yet I don’t quite sound like the people in my area. I suppose my father has had the most influence on my accent, but it’s not something I worry about.
He wrote it around 20 years ago but didn’t know how to go about getting it published so it’s just been sitting around only being read by his grandkids which is a waste b/c i loved it.
But now w the help of my dad he is finally getting it published and it’s going on Kindle v soon!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
but before it can go on kindle we need a cover!!!!!!!!!!!
and i’m not the best artist and my dad came up w this work of art
so we are looking for someone who would like to help us out w the cover!!! it could be u!!!!
We can’t offer you much, but you will get a special mention in the book and your work will be on the front cover! a big old bunch of people will see it and be like wow what a beautiful cover!!
if u know anyone who might be interested pls tell them!!!! or just reblog to help out an old man who wants to write children’s stories!!!
thank u
I keep trying to be someone else other than myself because even though I pass very well my transition is stuck. I'm pre everything and people don't treat me like the boy I am. How can I stop trying to be someone else, it's exhastive and I feel alone
AnonymousWhat do you mean you are trying to be someone else?
How do people feel about public breastfeeding where everyone can see?
I don’t understand why this should be any different from any other situation, just because there is a baby involved. Public nudity is in most cases indecent behaviour.
People usually get mad when you say that because “breasts are a normal part of the human body!” Well, so are penises, do you also think it’s okay for men to whip it out in public then? No, it’s indecent.
Or they say that “breastfeeding is completely natural”. Well yes, but so is peeing, and we don’t do that in public either.
I don’t think they need to go all the way home to breastfeed their child, I just think they could at least go to a more secluded area, that’s all. Or do it in such a way that there’s nothing to see.
I don’t think the penis/breast comparison is quite fair though, there is no use for a penis in public, other than to pee but there’s bathrooms for that, and it’s private as in no one will see your penis. Breasts, however, in the case of breastfeeding infants, are a necessity for an infant. You cannot deny an infant nutrition on the basis of your comfort level. Breasts are a normal part of the human body, and as are penises but again, no one really has a use for a penis in public. Otherwise, I do not think people should really have a need to be shirtless in public, male or female. Most places here have a strict “no shirt, no shoes, no service” rule. Beaches and beach towns are the exception.
I don’t think women should really be forced to go into a public bathroom to breastfeed, but to just be considerate of where they are breastfeeding. Obviously it’s inconsiderate to breastfeed in the middle of a restaurant or a store, but a rest area (we have them here at the malls, it’s an area or rather areas that have several seats/couches and tables) would be a reasonable place to do this.
I go to a small, private, liberal high school and the students/teachers I've told have all been very supportive. What's the best way to come out? I mean, I want to clarify that this is a medical condition, not a choice, and that being transgender is NOT a different gender. However, I don't feel like it's my job to do that, nor is there a way to get that info out other than at an assembly. I can do a school-wide assembly, a grade-wide assembly, or just have my friends spread the word. Thoughts?
AnonymousDo you have any teachers that you are close to? And counselors? The best way to come out would be through them, because they can offer their support and if anything were to go wrong, you could consult with them for a better solution. I don’t necessarily think you have to tell everyone at the same time, then again, I don’t go to your school so I don’t know what’s best. But the trusty teacher/counselor route seems best in this case.
I was called transphobic once because I said I disagreed that a character was trans, considering the main argument for it is his insecurity (which in the actual comic is because of a lot of reasons, none being physical dysphoria). I laughed at being called transphobic for thinking hes not trans; considering i myself am trans.
AnonymousI don’t know if I should laugh or be angry, perhaps I should be the latter.
