PSA to authors writing dyslexic characters (and just people in general) that most dyslexic people don’t experience letters “jumping” or moving around on the page.

I myself am NOT dyslexic, but my mom and brother are, and I work full-time with dyslexic children. The research on literacy and dyslexia is constantly changing, but nothing I have learned supports letters floating, moving, or jumping, nor have any of my students reported experiencing something like that. It is a part of some other disorders and may occur for some dyslexic people, but it is not the most common presentation.

What I do see very often in my students: b/d/p/q reversals (eg reading “pig” as “big”,) guessing words based on the initial letters (eg reading “spot” as “spin,”) and changing vowel sounds (eg, reading “bet” as “beet.”)

In terms of writing, I often see letter reversals outside of b/d - for example, students writing g or s backwards. I also see spelling errors that come from difficulty distinguishing similar sounds in words. An example of this would be a child spelling “train” as “chrain” or “clod” as “cod.”

I work with K-5th grade, where we spend most of our time working with one-syllable, short vowel words, but of course multisyllabic words with complex vowels (like “treatise” or “diorama”) will be even more difficult for dyslexic people and may be a struggle for dyslexic adults - and don’t even get me started on loanwords and other words that aren’t phonetic (chauffeur, government.)

JJ Maybank in Outer Banks Season 2 Episode 2

@stupidthingsgoodoutcomes this is rlly bad but it's all I could do, I am so sorry

[stupidthingsgoodoutcomes]

hi guys i need psychological help because wtf was season four

[stupidthingsgoodoutcomes]

if anyone has any JJ gifs from the rain scene (where they see Ward kill Gavin) in 2x02 please give them to me I am in love with him in that scene

[stupidthingsgoodoutcomes]

Have you watched part 1??

No not yet!! I’m waiting until the whole thing is out bc I KNOW I cannot handle watching half and then having to wait. I also know this is an unpopular take but I’m using the time to rewatch the first 3 seasons!

[stupidthingsgoodoutcomes]

this may be fueled by my delusion but I think season 1 JJ and season 2-4 JJ are different people

[stupidthingsgoodoutcomes]

Ward Cameron was actually so crazy bc like if I heard some teenagers talking about how they found 400 million dollars I’d be like “wow that’s epic” and not like “I must steal that from them immediately”

[stupidthingsgoodoutcomes]

jj saying “I know you’re about to hit me right now, I can sense it” is actually extremely depressing

[stupidthingsgoodoutcomes]

trouble has been the third song on my jj playlist for YEARS and I feel extremely vindicated now that it’s been used in the trailer

[stupidthingsgoodoutcomes]

Asking bc I am definitely not going to watch it until the full season is out and I want to avoid spoilies

[stupidthingsgoodoutcomes]

is anyone else getting major luke-maybank-is-back energy from the trailer or am I going insane

alr i have nothing to do rn so all i'm doing is watching Obx......but i just want to ask what is your fav lines from each character?

my personal favorite line from JJ is HoUseKEeping!

Ooooh okay let’s see!!

“Our mission this summer is to have a good time, all the time” is a pretty classic Jombie quote that matches my own outlook on summers and life. And “Well, that’s disheartening and scary.”

JJ is tough for me because I’m in love with him but I think, as basic as it may be, “Stupid things have good outcomes all the time” resonates with me. I also love “I have polio, bro, I can’t walk” and “Have you lost your mind??” “Probably!” in 3x05.

For Pope it’s honestly “Life is five minutes of pleasure for a lifetime of pain.” Like he’s being so melodramatic idk it makes me laugh every time. Also I will never stop cackling at “But how would that keep us safe?” Kudos to JD for that improv. Honorable mention to “You have a death compass” because that whole scene is hilarious

Kie’s “Yo, Top” in season three had me rolling. “Great, Pope read about it, so somebody’s gonna die” is such an underrated line too.

As for Sarah - I’m sorry but I have to give bonus points to “You love the IDEA of me, you love being SEEN with me, but you don’t LOVE me!” just because the TikTok trend makes it absolutely hilarious

For Cleo I’d choose “Nice work, rude boy” or possibly the entire scene where she and Pope are stealing. I love her disgust at his fake accent
