for anyone unsure of why an ASL (or other sign language) interpretation of a movie is important there are a 2 main reasons

many Deaf people are not native speakers of English. reading captions means reading a foreign language. Deaf people whose native language isn't English deserve equal access to media and captions are not true equal access.

Deaf literacy rates are incredibly low due to improper and inadequate teaching. 1/5 of Deaf students graduating from highschool have a literacy rate at or below 2nd grade. this makes reading captions difficult for many of us.

Ranting into the void that is Tumblr.

I hate being single & I hate dating apps.

I hate this pandemic lifestyle & I hate credit.

I am home 98% of time. I get lonely, I join a dating app. I tolerate it for a month, have no luck then delete it. I focus on myself & practice gratitude & go to therapy. I get lonely & try again. I get ghosted, stood up, lied to & get myself all pissed off cause humans are trash. MEN are trash.

Sometimes I think I should have settled. I should have followed the generational curses. I shouldn't be alone. It's soul crushing.

This isnt fair!
