The Super Bowl ASL performances have been an annual disaster for the Deaf community who are watching on TV. It’s usually a frustrating experience.
It won’t change as long as the NAD is in bed with the NFL and the founder of Love Sign, Alexis Kashar.

"Imma just wake up early and do it then"

[Mary_Coltson @MColtson]

Hey! Cool in theory, but there are plenty of resources to learn ASL from Deaf people and the Deaf community

🚨 NEW RESEARCH 🚨

Want to be a more impactful communicator?

Speak more slowly.

-Boosts customer satisfaction and positive evaluations
-Makes communicators seem more empathetic (i.e., caring and understanding about audience's needs)

[Deaf Hottie🧏🏾‍♀️🥵 @bluejay19xx]

Unfortunately 95% of Deaf babies are born from hearing parents and they refuse to learn ASL for their child. Instead they will make them wear hearing devices and force them to speak

One thing that people might not be aware of is that Twitter had its own sign in American Sign Language. We adopted the sign BIRD to also mean TWEET/TWITTER and this is unique to that platform whereas other platforms had lexicalized signs or simply I POST ON I-G or F-B

Well done to the only brand who know how to behave

STOP MISUSING ACCESSIBILITY FEATURES. It’s not trendy or funny.

[Mary_Coltson @MColtson]

What an amazing experience it was to take this class this semester. I truly feel like the content and information is so beneficial and I definitely won’t be forgetting this class anytime soon 😄
Thank you so much @mimsPR for teaching a fantastic class!!

If you're looking for talent, skills, and energy, you've found it. This latest cohort of #MasonComm students has finished 15 weeks of hands-on immersion into social media strategy and content creation, and they've got the work to prove it! #ProudProf @MasonCommDept #ReadyforHire

[Mary_Coltson @MColtson]

A huge thank you to @laurennneff who shared such an inspiring and wonderful story of herself and her experiences. You gave such great insights on the reality of navigating career paths. And also shared about her great experience from her job at @sagecomm ! 😄

[deaf van dyke ☼ @missundaaztood]

I feel full of hot takes lately but yes, always learn from Deaf and HoH folks.. but from those who are fluent or native to ASL. Not every Deaf or HoH person is a good one to learn from.

Every ASL video assignment ever…

Twitter has been widely popular since it’s early days and is apart of many people’s everyday routine. Why is that? The Jonah Berger’s 5th principle, “Public” can be apply to the virality of Twitter. #mimspr #twitter #contagious

Really interesting look into Burt’s Bees! I wasn’t even aware of their story

[Kaitlyn Petersen @KPetersen_98]

Storytelling is the way humans connect and can be a way we remember brands. Most of us have probably used Burt’s Bees chapstick. But have you ever heard of their story? Read below to learn about the importance of storytelling & how it connects. @BurtsBees #MimsPR #contagious

[Mary_Coltson @MColtson]

These iconic @LouboutinWorld shoes have a trademark of having red bottoms which make them a perfect example of @j1berger ‘s key element, public. You instantly know them when you see them!

Ugh these commercials get me every time! A really good use of emotion strategy

[Sara Zariry @SarazariryPR]

At some point in time, you had to come across an ASPCA campaign video featuring sad music and heartbreaking content of malnourished animals. This campaign's reach and engagement uses @j1berger emotion strategy to successfully leave an impactful message. @ASPCA #MimsPR #animals

[Mary_Coltson @MColtson]

Remember when everyone would remind you what day it is on Wednesdays? The GEICO commercial uses triggers, one of @j1berger elements from STEPPS. We recall the silly camel and his excitement every time it hits the middle of the week!
