nothing makes me feel more pathetic than when I’m trying to do a basic as fuck sum in my head and my brain is giving me absolutely nothing
not a single gear moving up there. Brain just clocks out when numbers are involved and trying to force it to figure out even the simplest calculations physically feels excruciating and exhausting
meanwhile my dad and my brother will be looking at me like I’m some alien experiment bc how can I be so stupid that I can’t do this shit in my head?
#I’ve always suspected I’ve got some degree of dyscalculia bc there are other related issues I have in that area#I used to slam my head on the table in primary school in frustration and cry when I couldn’t get my brain to figure things out#my exams and jotter margins were peppered with loads of tiny dot marks from where I would have to physically make a mark to count#and then count up how many marks I’d made to do the multiplication or whatever. Like 6x7 I would do six sets of seven dots and count them#I can’t do it in my head and school made me feel like an absolute moron for it but no-one ever suggested I might have an issue there#I couldn’t memorise times tables beyond like 2 and 5 and 10 consistently. Even 4 wouldn’t stick somehow#and 6 7 and 8 made me cry from how much I struggled with them. I still can’t remember them#I had a maths tutor in high school for my last year and every week he would have to teach me things again bc it wouldn’t stay in my head#My dad would shout at me when I was asking for help at maths homework bc he somehow thought shouting the sum at me would make me Get it#uncle would throw questions at me and my bro to figure out and my brother would get it instantly and I would be sat there struggling#and then the inevitable impatient sound of a disbelieving ‘come on!!’ would follow and I’d feel worse bc im expected to do it and I couldnt#there’s a home video of me trying to figure out the difference between the years 1982 and 1987 and the pause while the gears struggle#ton work out the number before saying it is agonising to listen to bc I am genuinely taking that long to do it

I wish we taught kids math games to help them practice addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division in their heads.
I just started playing Cult of the Lamb and I loved the knucklebones mini game so much. It's addition and simple multiplication and would be great for those just starting to learn multiplication. (Play here, wiki here)
Another good one is sticks, its just addition so it's great for first and second graders. (Wikipedia entry here)

Building notion i have that jan might actually have two 40ft tall fathers due to the recent story events NOT dissuaded by both of them showing up to protect him at the school being attacked by the dinoforce [comedy villians that do NOT require the protagonist heavy hitters powerup combiner mode]
Anyway

I'm currently watching a YouTuber react to episodes of Buffy. The first one was Once More with Feeling because her reaction popped up after I watched a bunch of its songs in a row, and I was like 'hey I wonder how she reacted to earlier episodes' and now I'm kind of hooked.
Anyway at the moment she is Not Having A Good Time and I am forcibly reminded of being twelve and trying to act Normal around my family after watching the episode where Jenny dies.

How am I supposed to go from being ridiculed and judged for asking for help with my assignments/lessons in primary school to casually asking for help in college?? Am I supposed to act like my teachers and classmates didn’t screw me up in the head or

tbh the only reason why I'm not skipping every math lesson and actually giving it ago is bc I know Alan Turing would be disappointed
