    Hello, I'm . If you clicked on my profile because you couldn't remember why you followed me, it was probably this.

  2. There's an interesting element of privilege to the assumption that children with learning disabilities would be "picked up on." Never mind the assumption that illiterate kids all get the help they need/even attend school.

  4. Plus, yknow, adaptive tech for blind people also works for seeing people. Speech-to-text and vice-versa.

  5. And as much as tech is still text-based, most illiterate people can work smart phones enough to manage video calls, emoji chats, apps like Snapchat and the like.

    Yep. A lot of people rely on partners/family. There's a huge stigma around it so they find other ways.

    Over the years I've discovered that a lot of older illiterate people use the "I don't have my reading glasses" excuse to have things read to them. Adult literacy teachers will tell you the same thing - the coping techniques are remarkable.

    For the record, I dont want to let the Scottish Government off the hook on this. Benefits may not be a devolved power but the Scot Gov still have a responsibility to our citizens in terms of literacy, poverty and access to education.

    On the phone again, asked one of the guys how he spelled his surname. He used phonetic letters and then said "I think?"

    For the record, I would LOVE to teach them to read. Give me time, funding, training and a space to do it. OR DO YOUR OWN FUCKING JOBS AND HELP THEM.

    I'm sick of this. I've had so many arguments with the DWP today on behalf of starving, homeless people. People who are just numbers to some burnt out drone in a call centre working to a script. This is fucking bullshit. Tory Britain.

    How the fuck in 2020 are people who don't even know which letters are which shapes supposed to just rock up to a library and respond to DWP sanctions? What the fuck do they expect library workers to do?

    Adult literacy classes have been stopped in our area due to a lack of volunteers and funding. There is nothing I can do for these people who are now destitute.

    They've been told that they need to print out and update their journals by hand, as though the words on the screen are the problem. What do they want from these guys, drawings?

    The job centre have sent us four people today who cannot read. They cannot even tell me which letters are which. One of them described a C as "the curly one." Legally I can't even look at their universal credit account. Do they expect me to teach these poor people to read?
