Signing off. Sad to depart from this space- the disability and deaf academic communities here have been life-changing.
I’m keeping my account and I might still check in occasionally, but come find me on IG!

This episode holds deaf heart and culture like I’ve never seen. Thank you @MarleeMatlin and everyone involved in the production for your work making this vision come alive.
Im watching the phenomenal episode of #Accused directed by @MarleeMatlin and starring @StellaNogueras and @CastilleJoshua. I knew it would be hard to watch, but I still keep needing to pause to take deep breaths.

I am in a conversation right now (and over the last few days) on an Instagram post that echoes this experience. The original poster has been very engaged and open, but the way others have responded to invalidate and dismiss my feedback has been frustrating.

Excellent thread but no image descriptions
Less than 20 years ago, the world was headed for a >4C warmer world by 2100. The amount of change that would occur under that much warming, that fast, was almost unimaginable and certainly unsurvivable for human civilization + a large percentage of the world's species. (thread)
Currently watching Love Is Blind as my trash downtime tv, and I would like to put out a PSA on behalf of all speech language pathologists:
WE DO NOT ALL THINK THAT BIRTH DEFECTS ARE AN UNAVOIDABLE CAUSE OF LASTING FAMILY TRAUMA

CW suicide, corporate disregard for human life
Buckle in for this thread.
Last Friday, CBS cancelled a segment about our clients suing Amazon for selling suicide kits to their now deceased kids. CBS’ cowardice gave me renewed clarity about how urgent this litigation is. 🧵@naomi_leeds 1/
CW cops, forced hospitalization
An NYPD cop accurately reported wrongdoing by his supervisors, so they raided his home, hauled him to the hospital in cuffs, and held him there for SIX DAYS under false claims he was having a "psychiatric emergency." When the ordeal ended, the hospital sent him a bill for $7,185.
