#D/deaf
A good example of this is clear masks for d/Deaf attendees. These are a lot pricier than standard masks, so the ones we buy in bulk are not clear, but we do keep a stash of clear ones in stock for events where just asking someone to briefly lower a mask won't cut it (e.g. speed friending).

Love it, thank you.

I'm born deaf, so ummm, the model might be a little err late for my development. :D

One of my superpowers is that I'm deaf. :D

Recently I got up about 4.30am bc couldn't sleep, went outside with my hearing aids, and discovered that there was a single Tui?making the same song, over and over again. Loudly. I thought, oh, that's what normies hear at 4.30am!!

@xplainthexmen.bsky.social just caught up to the Library of Congress episode (congrats btw!) and as a lowercase d deaf person, I personally very much did resonate with X-Men through that vector. But oddly enough because disability representation in the 80s was so lousy, Daredevil was my main guy.

My fave Magic plane is Kylem (Battlebond's world) because every adult there knows sign language. (I'm a CODA & have some Deaf cultural upbringing.)

I haven't read this, yet. I look forward to seeing how Abigale's adventures might do lil nods toward the d/Deaf experience of living in hearing spaces.
We now have the names for this crew, a group of Strixhaven students who (*minor spoilers*) get Isekai'd into Lorwyn by a mischievous fairy.

Abigale - A deaf and poetic Silverquill owlin
Sanar - A chaotic Prismari goblin
Tam - A by-the-book Quandrix gorgon
Kirol - A beefy non-binary Lorehold vampire

✨ Examples of assistive in restaurants:
• QR-code menus that allow guests to zoom, use screen readers, or read in their preferred format.
• Speech-to-text communication apps that support conversations between guests and staff, especially for those who are D/deaf, hard of hearing, or nonverbal.

V. annoying thing about oralist/eugenicist arguments in deaf ed is how the counter is reduced to amorphous cultural protectivism, which, OK culture is great, but also your way doesn't work! 80% of US deaf kids have CIs and 70% of US d/hh experience language deprivation. Math ain't mathin' babes!

I cat-sat for a capital-d Deaf cat once, and he was hilarious. His sister would hop gracefully down from the couch when I walked in, and he would THUMP down because he couldn't hear how loud he was being.

Real talk, I think one of my cats is deaf. Likely little d-deaf, not capital letter Deaf, but like.

My poor baby. :(

Jason Moody / Dear Deaf Angels

This album is a little more rock-ish than Jason’s previous albums; it’s got a kind of 80s/90s vibe, varying from Cocteau Twins to Afghan Whigs and everything in between. Jason Moody deserves more attention; check this one one.

This woman also told us she was deaf and would often talk about preferring to turn off her cochlear implant. I once asked her whether she was Deaf or deaf, and she said, "I guess both, it doesn't really matter."

Do D/deaf people tend to say this? I always got the impression it was really important.
She's targeted numerous other people, been thrown out of a pregnancy server, and other folks had been suspicious about the story not adding up.

Since the options had been

A) My friend is paralysed,
B) My friend is dead, or
C) This person is not my friend and is lying,

it's the least worst one.

if you're not infuriated after listening to this, with @weissmann.substack.com , you're deaf. part 1 is baaaaad, part 2 is arguably worse (your mileage may vary)

21. DOG ENDS
Hearing Impaired Peer Goes Anything But Quietly. The man-hunting world was rocked on its axis yesterday with the killing of popular deaf peer and author Lord Dominic of Winterstoke. Lord D, Master of the Chorley Hunt, had been, for many years, in the habit of claiming the generous attendance allowance on offer for regularly sitting in the House of Lords, something he was able to achieve safely and without any detrimental impact upon his mental health due to his profound deafness which made him the envy of his fellow peers.

This has been an issue for a while, we don't defend well but our opponents do. Only one goal is on Sam tonight. The rest is being outworked and having shitty D coverage. Carbonneau keeps saying man to man doesn't work. Management is done deaf about this. We won't be a contender until this is fixed.

we also have measles coming back. measles can be deadly; it can also make you blind and/or d/Deaf. babies aren’t old enough to mask or get vaccinated.

We hoped to follow this example, making and holding space to support the practice and pride of future generations of d/Deaf, Disabled, and Neurodivergent artists.
Our community laments that #IDPwD is often ignored by mainstream organisations.

If you didn’t notice which part of your body they were scanning, you were also either…

a) having a full-body for something they REALLY don’t want to worry you about

b) profoundly dumb, and also deaf (those things are extremely f’n loud)

c) lying badly

d) all of the above
If your doctor decided you needed an MRI (indicating concern about something serious) and you claim that you didn't ask why or what part of your body he wanted to look at, you are:

1. Really stupid; or

2. Dangerously detached from reality; or

4. Lying; or

4. All three. 🎯

Beloved & I know 2 signs for #Jewish in #ASL & we don't use either, as both are gendered.
(One references a beard & the other payot.)

Instead, we use a Home Sign; the signs "G-d wrestling."
In Hebrew, "Israel" means "G-d wrestler."
This Deaf Queer Jewtina enjoys being a G-d wrestler.
