It sucks because some people in the comments I’ve known and worked with for a long time and they just can’t seem to separate Anti-Zionism from Anti-Semitism.

Just saw a post and a ton of comments condemning students graduating from GALLAUDET that either waved the Palestinian flag or wore the keffiyeh with their gowns.

… and a lot of Deaf community members are showing their true colors.

What do you call the student loans of a Deaf person?

NOBODY SPOIL SHIT FOR ME OKAY?!

Homer Simpson with fingers crossed saying “Gay gay gay”

Me, watching Sein’s storyline on Frieren:

With inspiration from Baldur’s Gate, “Well met.”

Gallaudet came up with a new name sign for Coke (THE DRINK) but it’s just C-O-K-E. How is that a name sign?

People who vape at bus stations annoy me. I don’t wanna be inhaling that shit.

Last year when we got an air filter, I remember having the most bizarre dreams. That faded away eventually but my partner replaced the filter yesterday and omggg… I just had the WEIRDEST dream that I’m still shooketh about.

I am CONVINCED that introducing an air purifier to your bedroom will give you the most vivid and weirdest dreams.

Ew. I just got an email about a workshop discussing how interpreting will need to adapt to AI, and how to integrate it in their practice. What really put me off is this quote: AI will not replace interpreters—but interpreters who embrace AI and emotional intelligence will replace those who don’t.

Ok but who was gonna tell me that a negroni is just straight up alcohol? I wasn't trying to get lit on a Sunday night before school.

Colleague: Omg this administration… it’s like communism.

*beat*

Me: You mean fascism…

Colleague: oh well um… that too…

Me: *confused look* 🤨

Y’all hating on Korra is the reason why people with trauma and mental illnesses have such a hard time opening up. I will die on this hill.

Disabilty community! I need your help finding a TikTok! There was this skit by this lady that was like “if people treated breaking the law like ADA violations” and I can’t findddd ittt. She says something like “oh you’ve [insert egregious crime]. I should file a complaint about this”

Maybe I’m just a hater… but I would like to see more Deaf movies that don’t center around White people… that’s just me.

But on the contrary there seems to be a thriving Deaf community on Xiaohongshu, but a hearing white man is like capitalizing on our culture.

I joined another app 📕 (just to lurk for now) and of course, the first thing I see when searching “deaf” is an American hearing coda and I’m a little miffed. 😤

me and who? #TheDragonPrince

Tried making a piece of art for a christmas gift the day of… got too ambitious… injured my elbow… hey macarena!

First of all, who is this “we” you speak of?!

Second of all, … yeah.

White-dominated workgroups exhaust me, y’all.

White people will really start a meeting with “community agreements” to address potential harm but when the actual harm gets addressed, all of a sudden, there’s not enough time because we have to “get through everything” in the meeting.

My professor told me on the last day of class that he thinks I have what it takes to pursue a PhD and I can’t tell if he likes me or hates me. 😂

Such a good threaddddd… my skin are clear, nature is healing

I took a trip down memory lane by watching like OLD TikToks I posted back in 2020 and damn… I don’t even recognize that person anymore… but good on them for being creative during the pandemic.

Hey I’m always here for the murder references. Also, you can DM me if you prefer but I’m curious to know more about why you’re not a fan - would love to know your perspective!

It’s a real mindfuck to have a Speech and Hearing clinic right next to the School of Social Work. One wrong turn and I’m back to my childhood trauma. Good thing there are social workers around though.

Ahh, yes, I believe it’s the C-hand shape with the palm facing your neck as if to choke and making an upward circular motion… from what I can remember from my grad class at Gallaudet.
