I'm a dyslexic helping combat climate change in the planning system. I know my thinking has been a massive help on the few occasions I'm not bogged down with repetitive reports.

Whenever I hear these definitions I always think, it's as if we always deceived left handed people as "having a clumsy right hand instead", then I rembeber they actually did do that in school to my dad and after much effort society moved on for the better.
Yep. It was shocking, wasn't it. And now, still, they treat dyslexics as though we're broken, just like they did left-handers. 💔
I’m a dyslexic book designer. I feel like it my way I made books better, more readable, and fun.
I'm 100% certain of it. It's only a guess, but may I ask whether it's a combination of your creative streak (a very dyslexic thing) and a previous struggle you might have had with reading and books?
I'm still in shock from his passive aggressive, extremely weird and rude introduction of his coworker.
Hi Kim, Rachel and I giggled that in together during the "scripting" of the presentation, along with a similar one she aimed (happily and in a similarly friendly way) at me later on (something to do with "I wanted to work with an expert in dyslexia awareness, but he wasn't available so I asked Martin instead"). In fact, she encouraged the line you refer to, because she's wonderful and has a similarly ironic and facetious sense of humour to me. This was a true co-creation, made together, and with mutual respect. I'm sorry you didn't find the line funny, I suppose that's the danger with making quips (even rehearsed ones). My only regret about it is that I let slip the "she's beautiful but she isn't my assistant" line to immediately follow it that I'd toyed with including (but which I hadn't run by Rachel, so wasn't sure I should use).
