I'm not sure what moth chick is supposed to change to with dyslexia? Is it supposed to be goth? Dyslexia puts letters out of order, it doesn't make different ones...

Dyslexia is broader than you're thinking. Struggling to spell, read, or write can all be signs of dyslexia: https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/dyslexia/symptoms-causes/syc-20353552

Scroll down to school age/teen symptoms for such examples.

It’s okay to say the joke doesn’t work.

Lol wtf. This answered nothing... Could you explicitly state what a mouth has to do with dyslexia?

The irony that this was a badly written joke?

[–] essteeyou@lemmy.world 5 points 6 months ago

The irony is that you said "mouth" and the comic says "moth"

Thom. He's into dudes.

I agree. Should I tell her that it was a typo? would have worked better imo
