[my job is word (they/them) @phonotactician]

I want a word for the particular feeling of unbelonging that comes with being surrounded by people discussing an out-group that you belong to. Bonus for variants which reference contrasts in (hyper/in)visibility

[New Leaf Language @NewLeafLanguage]

@MichaelSkyer Yes. I found many of the tests listed on the site to be incredibly helpful for understanding my own cognitive systems, and also for supplementing the evaluation I’ve received from MHPs (which omitted consideration of several important factors for me, like masking)

@jmhenner @MollieKatzen The Enchanted Broccoli Forest has been a huge part of my culinary life. It feels like coming home every time I use it.

Alright friends! I'm doing a thread for my honors class. Who are your favorite Tweeters or Influences on Deafness?!

The idea is to experience many deaf perspectives!

[Jon Henner @jmhenner]

I'm presenting in a couple weeks on if we can crip deaf ed. After ruminating about it for awhile, I believe my answer will be no. Quite frankly, most researchers, doctors, and professionals who work on deaf populations don't see us as /people/

A somewhat frivolous #DeafPedagogy Friday tweet, but one that is close to my heart indeed.

Three years in the making, the major writing and editing phase is at long last complete complete.

Coming soon to a library and PDF reader near you ...

[New Leaf Language @NewLeafLanguage]

@MichaelSkyer I am extremely excited for this. I was looking for your work to cite for my article that was just published… without knowing it existed 😆 (needed a deaf-Ed specific vygotskyan discussion)

[Jon Henner @jmhenner]

My favorite thing to do when talking about assumptions of gender in discourse is to draw stick figures. One straight body and one with a triangle at the waist. Then I ask people to gender the sticks. Most folks pick the triangle to be female bc skirt. Then I show them my skirt.

There is a potentially offensive upcoming film called "Boy Kills World" that is about a "...a deaf mute with a vibrant imagination..." The actor of the deaf character is Bill Skarsgård, who isn't deaf. Produced by Sam Raimi and Roy Lee.

Friends COVID is not a cold or even the flu — when you have COVID you need to *rest*. Rest like you’ve never rested before. I’m talking do not use your brain, don’t read books, don’t use the time to call your mom. Lay in the dark and pretend you are a rock as much as possible.

[New Leaf Language @NewLeafLanguage]

@katerowley0 Would love to be involved! I’ll send you a DM

[Gerardo Ortega @ortega_ger]

@ErinMoriartyH @KymPMeyer I know it’s not immediately contemporary but it could be an amazing thing to pull readings from for contextual / foundational theorizing

[New Leaf Language @NewLeafLanguage]

@ErinMoriartyH @KymPMeyer Deaf Subjects (Brenda jo Bruggeman) remains one of the most powerful things I��ve ever read
