I was actually diagnosed with a math related learning disability. If math gets anymore complicated than like 4th grade then I will legitimately start crying.


At the places I worked the cash registers did all the math for you except making change. But now a days there are lots that spit out the coins for you too, so it's even easier!

Real talk for a moment: Can we Go back to that month that Pokemon Go was released. Everyone was so happy and the only people down my throat were old men at work who complained about a cell phone app kids were playing. Can we have that? Please.

Dyscalculia is said to be as prevalent as dyslexia, but it hardly gets as diagnosed.

They didn't give it a name, they just said it was a math related learning disability.
I was given an IQ test and all of my stats were 'superior' except math. They said that it was 'unusually low considering my other scores'.

So whatever that means.

I do think that I might have a touch of discalculia but it's not the main thing that causes issues.


Yeah, one of the registers that do it automatically.


Positive racism is a thing. Which also sucks. (not positive as in racism good, like they assume something that would be positive but it's actually toxic cuz it leads to stereotyping and such)

Positive racism (there's another name for it, but I can't remember) is awful because it gives people stereotypes and puts pressure on members of one race while putting down others.

It can be combination of factors that makes math more difficult. I also know people who are super smart in other subjects but just have a hard time conceptualizing math. Its too abstract sometimes for them.
