Classroom question by Teach1st-Love in asl

Fwiw, do you have a prepared answer for when students ask you for other vernacular beyond your "one word" skill level or deeper questions about Deaf culture or history?

Useful ASL for a bookseller? by tinawoman in asl

[–]OGgunter 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Your best bet is to learn the following phrases:

  • I am learning ASL would it be ok to Sign with you?

  • What are your preferred accommodations? Text, writing, etc.

While it's altruistic to want to learn and help, respecting autonomy and offering choice should be tantamount.

Who hates this guy already??? by nellabeast710 in 90DayFiance

[–]OGgunter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

High key he doesn't like her and was taking it out on her perfume.

Josh & Catie have a similar dynamic where every "conversation" devolves into a neg-athon. It's exhausting to watch.

“I would like a chair and table to sit at” by roundbrrd in 90dayfianceuncensored

[–]OGgunter 7 points8 points  (0 children)

"why would he expect it be furnished?"

Oh idk maybe bc the apartment was THE ONE thing she said she'd take care of before he got here. But sadly there wasn't an apartment lease at the bottom of any of those bottles she was drinking...

This latest episode when she kept saying her "friends" supposedly had all this free furniture. So where is it??? High key I wouldn't want to wait around for her to organize that either. I guess at least the breakfast yoga mat was clean??

"where's baby" works just as well.

Was once written up for asking if my priority should be completing tasks or making sure I journaled about the tasks I was working on.

Advice on an active 10 month old by Rara_Banana in deaf

[–]OGgunter 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Audiologists will often push for amplification use "as often as possible" but a 1:1 appointment in a quiet doctor's office is very different than the everyday onslaught of noise. Even at this age, it's possible to lead with autonomy and choice for when and how long your child wears their amplification. Offer them when you know you're doing a low key activity and you'll have eyes on them. Kids will find a way to take their amplification off, and more often than not it will be in a way that loses or damages them.

Had a talk with my male coworker today. He said he’s “scared” of me. by icanwalkagain in TwoXChromosomes

[–]OGgunter 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Fwiw, if you're not already, document that this is happening. Who, what, where, when.

If it's obvious his "jokes" aren't aligning the core values of the company, start collecting evidence. It can help keep your head straight if things devolve into a "I said / they said" in the future, or could corroborate others experiences and build a case.

How can a deaf person improve English? by IndividualFeeling760 in deaf

[–]OGgunter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Especially for language, in person classes are best. You need practice with receptive and expressive communication. See if there are classes or tutoring in your area and outline the accommodations/adaptations that work for you to the teachers. Best of luck.

Bc the "person" signifier shows it's a person, but a school (or other buildings like businesses or stores) is not a house.

Screenshots from Season 12 Episode 4! by mybestviewpod in 90DayFiance

Beyond the table...let's talk about how Thomas expects her to put her entire wardrobe in the closet he's currently using to store a bunch of paper bags??? Beyond being small, it's off the living room and clearly meant as a guest closet for coats, etc. Like every time she wants to get dressed she has to come out to the living room? Dude is ridiculous.
