Survey Opportunity

Hello everyone,

I am a Graduate student at the University at Albany studying Educational Psychology and Methodology. I also happen to be hard of hearing so a lot of my research is in line with Deaf Studies. This semester I have been diving into psychometrics and I was tasked with creating a survey for a sample of interest - of course my heart went with the Deaf Community. 

If you are Deaf/deaf/Hard of Hearing and have less than 5 minutes to spare - can you please take this survey about your experiences: https://albany.az1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_6A0ProDTHRGBS1o?fbclid=IwAR3P1jWNEDDl1M540wzXj3EDeY1grMUm04QRlavf3TVnbZ7u_3mpgcW6q48

It is completely anonymous and is not used for any publications! 

Thank you :)

This is what I do when I don’t want to argue. I even close my eyes so I’m not lip reading either lol

I just wish more people had patience for the Deaf and HOH. Please stop getting upset with me for asking you to communicate in a way that isn't verbal. The amount of people who get mad about having to write down or type what they want to tell me instead of speaking is insane. I've had workers in public outright refuse to read what I wrote/typed for them and deny me service. Luckily, for the most part I have someone with me to interpret. It still feels infantilizing though. I'm an adult yet people treat me as though I'm not all because I can't hear.

"Well you should use a hearing aid or get a cochlear implant"

I shouldn't have to in order to receive basic respect.

I don't want to fix my hearing and quite frankly, hearing fatigue is something I despise.

Omg?

My sister found out Ant-man has an ASL version on Disney plus! For the whole movie! Theres a little interpeter in the corner of the screen!

THAT IS SO COOL

I mean, I don't know ASL but. It makes me happy 😊

Apparently it's a marketing gimmick. Marvel plans on debuting a deaf hero at some point. Trying to get more Deaf viewers in.

She said if it goes well, they'll do more!

SPREAD IT. SPREAD IT LIKE WILDFIRE.

Who cares if its for marketing, if it means more accessibility? Hell yeah, make that a thing. ✌

Deaf Awareness

People in general truly do not understand what it's like to live in silence.

When hearing people tell you you're "so good at being Deaf" thinking it's a compliment -_-

For everyone in the USA with wheelchair fundraisers/can't afford a wheelchair: consider vocational rehabilitation. It's a govt program available in every state, and it IS a massive pain in the ass to go through, but if they do a physical eval and find that you can't keep or start working/going to uni without disability aids, they will pay for it. There's no strings attached either. If you have insurance they'll run it through ins first and then pay the portion that insurance won't pay.

[tuttle-did-it]

so I've just realised that the hearing community might not be aware of the genius cult film that is Deafula. I watch it every Halloween, but apparently this is not something hearies do.

Do you need to watch a ridiculous cult movie entirely in American sign language about a Deaf vampire and motorbikes? Yes. Yes, you do.
