I want a word for the particular feeling of unbelonging that comes with being surrounded by people discussing an out-group that you belong to. Bonus for variants which reference contrasts in (hyper/in)visibility

Alright friends! I'm doing a thread for my honors class. Who are your favorite Tweeters or Influences on Deafness?! The idea is to experience many deaf perspectives!
I'm presenting in a couple weeks on if we can crip deaf ed. After ruminating about it for awhile, I believe my answer will be no. Quite frankly, most researchers, doctors, and professionals who work on deaf populations don't see us as /people/
A somewhat frivolous #DeafPedagogy Friday tweet, but one that is close to my heart indeed. Three years in the making, the major writing and editing phase is at long last complete complete. Coming soon to a library and PDF reader near you ...
My favorite thing to do when talking about assumptions of gender in discourse is to draw stick figures. One straight body and one with a triangle at the waist. Then I ask people to gender the sticks. Most folks pick the triangle to be female bc skirt. Then I show them my skirt.
There is a potentially offensive upcoming film called "Boy Kills World" that is about a "...a deaf mute with a vibrant imagination..." The actor of the deaf character is Bill Skarsgård, who isn't deaf. Produced by Sam Raimi and Roy Lee.
Friends COVID is not a cold or even the flu — when you have COVID you need to *rest*. Rest like you’ve never rested before. I’m talking do not use your brain, don’t read books, don’t use the time to call your mom. Lay in the dark and pretend you are a rock as much as possible.

Hope during Christmas. A thread of generations past. Every Christmas, I would watch as my grandmother’s hands, dusted with flour, would make varenyky, holubtsi, borscht; she would speak of the last time she saw her brothers before their murder,
New article out! The paper examines the writing development of 8–18 years old DHH children with a bimodal bilingual approach. Except for strong developmental trends, the skilled DHH produced more adjectives and clauses than their less-skilled signing peers academic.oup.com/jdsde/advance-…
The @WFDeaf_org video message eloquently describes the importance of inalienable linguistic #HumanRights for deaf citizens in the world - in terms of expression of #freedom, #justice and #dignity. We need to ensure that these basic rights can be exercised without any constraints.

People usually quick to say BSL is changing, we need to move on, I can’t help but wonder what this means for Deaf people who living with dementia. Their language tends to reflect the era they are in & who can communicate with them if people aren’t learning or understand old signs
You know what? I no longer care if signed languages support speech development. The goal of a language is not to develop another language. The goal of language is languaging. If there are additional benefits? Fine. If there are not beyond languaging? Fucking fine.
When students and I talk about why disabled people may or may not choose to undergo formal evaluative testing, we often focus on financial access. But as I process my practically free ADHD assessment I'm most distraught by the linguistic violence in these deficit-based reports.
HEADS UP! Next Friday, 12/9 at 1P Eastern I'm doing a free ASL #DeafPedagogy lecture. This is the second in a two-part lecture series about issues of POWER and equity in deaf education. Thanks to Deaf Literary Initiative for inviting me. Reg link: us02web.zoom.us/webinar/regist…
