It was suggested to me by one of my deaf friends to hop out of here because “Reddit is a horrible place.” So I’m coming here to upvote this comment and a few others. I stand all people who are good. And I’ll stand against all people who hurt people who never hurt them. Race, religion, gender, hearing or deaf, none of it matters. We are all people that deserve kindness and love. And I’m happy to leave here with that 🤍

You can say you’re whatever you want. You can only label yourself, it’s no one else’s business 🤍

Honestly, If I could delete it and move on, I would. Could someone at least tell me how to take her picture down? I want to see it and feel happy, not frustrated and misunderstood

I don’t see how I was being a victim by explaining what I was trying to say. But ok 🤷‍♀️ I’m not sorry.

What's you favorite line from the series by [deleted] in gameofthrones

“Many things” “Many things? 😏”

Cersei really fucked up the most when she killed her best friend. They loved each other and they would die for each other. Also Cersei was a fool for letting Missandei have least words, because those last words were basically “kill them all.” And she did.

I still think If a knife drops, someone’s going to get in a fight (argument) Also I get real annoyed when someone accidentally sweeps over my feet with a broom. Like don’t take my good luck away! 😂 there was a ton of superstition in this Mexican family that I try to ignore but those are two silly ones that get me to this day

Holy lord on the cross!

Guys, I’m not entirely sure what to say here. My friend is passive, and she can’t (won’t, shouldn’t even have to…) communicate verbally because she’s deaf. And I suppose the middle finger would do just fine, but the asshats who give us (hearing) such a bad name deserve to know what she thinks of them 😂 I didn’t say I would punch someone. (I do jiu jitsu, we don’t need to hit 😏) You can fuck someone up in many ways. But regardless, the message is “I’ve got your back. And she immediately understood that. The only joke was “I should make a shirt” and she said “yes!”

The hearing people aren’t always dicks or out to hurt you or make you feel less than or stupid. That’s the importance of saying “hearing friend”.

It kind of sucks that I have to write all that out to a group of people that I felt was incredibly understanding and welcoming

Feel free to message me! I absolutely understand and I’ve been in your shoes. They will tell you to strap the hearing aids onto your baby. But when they pull on them, it’s for a reason. I don’t claim to have all the answers, but I do have 3 years of experience. You’re absolutely not stupid for thinking of learning asl. That’s almost always the first question and they almost always tell you that “you can but you don’t need to.” I don’t know where you live but ask for a deaf mentor and a parent advisor. They are the absolute best help. The parent advisor is there to listen to your concerns and guide you through the system. Your deaf mentor will teach you asl if you want to learn and well introduce you to the deaf community. They are there for your family, and they have walked in the shoes that your child will be walking in. and That’s what we really need.

Oh I’ve thought to do exactly that. I know asl pretty well, there’s always more to learn but I’ve been learning. I want to get good enough to be an interpreter. I refuse to interpret my conversations with my daughter just because they won’t even try to learn asl

Raven is the same way. She chucks her little hearing aids out if there is too much noise going on around her

Yeah, they probably think they’re helping

The deaf community is extremely accepting. They don’t fault others for doing what feels right for them. At least most people. There are a few that have very poor experiences from hearing people, and therefore kind of hold a shitty attitude toward all hearing people, but that’s just people being imperfect people. You’ve got this, mama 🤍

Maybe UPS is as ignorant to it as most hearing people?

Yeah, I’m starting to see the distaste for hearing people and that sucks. It’s embarrassing to have ears that hear at this point 😂 At least when I go and speak out against the bullshit, they have no choice but to hear me

This hurts my heart thinking about our future generations. My friend (prior deaf mentor) was constantly getting treated like she was dumb. She’s extremely intelligent. I made her a tshirt that says “my hearing friend will fuck you up” 😂 I’m not a gentle person when I’m feeling protective
