Deaf Culture: Let Everyone Know (all the time, every time) #AreYouImpressed? 🙌🔥🔥 #TheBern
Wanted to share some of what my own thought process looked like when developing ASL concepts to understand and discuss topics regarding bacteria. Maybe some of the signs will be a fit for you, or at least spark ideas for using a bacterial feature such as the peptidoglycan cell wall for an ASL sign.
Biology signs mentioned in this video:
Gram Negative Bacteria, Gram Positive Bacteria Gram Positive Stain, Gram Negative Stain Peptidoglycan Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) / Endotoxin Binary Fission
Bacterial culture - dividing into two every generation - lag time, growth (log) phase, stationary phase, death phase

(English Summary available in the comment section on youtube) Nutrition Facts in ASL: 97% of US Americans Deficient In Nutrient Linked To Several Top 10 Causes of Death
Health Literacy in American Sign Language: In this video we learn how the Standard American Diet (SAD) is increasing the risk of 97% of our loved ones dying from several of the top 10 killers in the United States.
The GREAT news in this video is that we know what to do to DECREASE OUR RISKS. We’ll talk about the science, what the overwhelmingly consistent findings in the best and latest research says we should do if our goal is to live longer and more healthful lives!
Also: We know non-vegetarians get a lot of #protein from meat, right? Well what about #Vegetarians and #Vegans? They can’t possibly get enough protein from #plants. Well to answer that, let’s take a look what the medical literature says … in American Sign Language!
We know that within our community health disparity is a huge issue. Accessibility to information is a big part of why our Deaf community suffers disproportionately when it comes to preventable diseases. Having access to knowledge about how our diet and lifestyle habits can negatively or positively impact our health is health justice.
thank you so much for posting things about asl!! sometimes i feel like its a language that gets forgotten about but i think it's the best language ever! P.S. i love your blog so much!❤️
ASL is seriously cool! and i don’t think it gets seen as a “language” in the langblr community v often. But how cool is it that three separate languages share the same written form (ALS, English, BSL)! i think that’s pretty dope
@languagenerds Agree with the first part of your msg, but want to clarify an important point regarding the last half of your post. Written English has nothing to do with ASL or BSL. It is incorrect to think of written English as a form of ASL or BSL, similarly, it would be a mistake to think of ASL or BSL as manual representations of the English language. Each is a separate, bonafide language. You cannot use English to ‘write in ASL’ (its linguistic parameters, grammar, syntax, etc.). The fact that many language users of ASL or BSL happen to write in English has to do with bilingualism and the simple shared geography of an English-speaking majority culture.
To summarize: ASL’s relationship to English is not a linguistic relationship akin to written standard Chinese being the written representation for more than one spoken language/dialect (word choice = political distinction) or that of the Latin alphabet being used by more than one language.
[H]earing people on tumblr be like:
*Learns how to sign: “Hi, how are you?” “My name is …” “Nice to meet you.” in ASL*
*Updates resume to: Conversational in American Sign Language*
*Emails boss, CC HR : "Hi Ted - I would like to request a meeting on Monday to discuss adjusting my pay scale to reflect my new status as a bilingual employee.*
That awkward moment when a colleague asks if you could give her private fingering lessons, so she can introduce herself to her Deaf patients.
#1 You don’t even know how funny this is, since we were rotating OBGYN. #2 Definitely don’t introduce yourself via fingering anyone #3 It’s called “fingerspelling” #4 Good lord I love my life. It is such a pleasure to exist.

Navigating Through Negativity
More often than not, a negative comment says more about the person saying it than about the person it is being said to — it’s uncanny how people who are hurting tend to hurt people in ways that are highly specific to their own insecurities.
I avoid injury from negativity by using the following workout plan:
1. Develop your hug muscles; only pull close to the chest that which uplifts. 2. Develop your shrug muscles; big traps ensure you won't get even a little bit trapped in any negativity.
Protip: Cultivate an extreme love for people. Kindness is infectious.
Fascinating how the Nyle DiMarco phenomenon has even impacted my amateur surfing career.
I agree with the original anon. Sure, ASL fulfill the requirement of a language. But to say that there's a culture for deaf people is kinda b.s, and to consider asl a world language is an insult to languages in general. I'm not gonna go to a country and start "speaking" asl. ASL is making lemon juice out of lemon, so claiming that deaf culture is a valid culture is such bull.
Dear Anon #1 and #2 – I hope you both realize that your contentions aren’t viewed as being on the forefront of some esoteric philosophical debate, in fact you both have demonstrated a gross lack of thought-coordination in your tripping-up-over ideas established back in the 1960′s. Of course ASL and Deaf culture are real and valid. Feel free to talk to the squad: Butler, Skelton & Valentine, 2001; Dolnick, 1993; Lane, 1992, 1997; Padden & Humphries, 1988; Wilcox 1989, Stokoe, William C. 1960. In conclusion, no, Deaf culture is not, “bull,” and I hope you get a papercut while flipping through ^ research and somebody pours, “lemon juice out of lemon,” on it.

That time I walked into the room and my mom signed, “I-LOVE-YOU,” — so I signed, ‘I LOVE YOU TOO” — she frowned and signed, “Not you, silly!” Turns out she was signing to my sister who was also in the room.

For those of you awesome people incorporating Clint’s hearing impairment into fic...
Here are a few things that you should ABSOLUTELY NOT INCLUDE (and not do to hard of hearing people in general).
Characters responding to Clint asking them to repeat something with “Never mind” or “It’s not important”
This is frustrating because it essentially cuts the hearing impaired person off from knowing A LOT OF INFORMATION, and is important never to do no matter how inane the comment was
Characters making statements like “What are you, deaf?” in response to anyone not hearing something
First of all, this kind of joke is rude and not funny because among other things it implies that there is something inherently wrong with deafness
Secondly, these statements are essentially guilting the person who didn’t hear for not hearing something, which is RUDE AND NOT FUNNY
Having absolutely everyone switch to American Sign Language with no problem because they all know it already
This one just denies the sheer frustrating difficulty of the relative dearth of people who know ASL and fails to acknowledge the fact that it is a whole other language
Portraying Clint losing his hearing as the worst thing that could happen to anyone ever
Many hearing impaired people do not consider hearing loss a disability, because of the uniqueness of deaf culture
Even those who do consider it a disability can do pretty much everything with their lives that fully hearing people can do and therefore most certainly don’t consider their lives to be over once their hearing is damaged/gone
Characters mocking Clint for speaking too loudly
This is literally the equivalent of mocking a paraplegic person for not walking properly and is rude and awful and is not a thing that should ever be written without at least eight other characters giving the character who does it a serious side-eye
In short, please do a tiny bit of research (or just stop and think) when deciding how to bring Clint’s hearing impairment into fan fiction. Thank you!
Also don’t do what OP did ^ and use the slur ‘hearing impaired’ #backtobasics #StopMedicalizationOfDevianceFromImaginedNorms

I didn’t realize SODA (Sibling of a Deaf Adult) was a thing. Now I keep going, SODA SODA SODA and wanting some coca cola. /mature
Just to clarify: I know there are siblings for deaf people. I just didn’t realize we have the word SODA like we do CODA. I’m still thirsty.
Coca coda~~~
If you enjoyed learning the SODA acronym you might also enjoy knowing: Coca-Coda is a real thing. Coca Coda = Child of Coda Adult + Child of Deaf Adult = a child who has one parent who is Deaf and the other who is Coda.
