if you watch the Internet backwards, the nerds kick the corporations out and simplify the communications protocols until a single person can understand everything at once

In 1985, I asked my brother David (age 15) to be the rotoscope model for my new game, Prince of Persia.
38 years later, I've made him a (present day) cartoon character in my new graphic novel memoir REPLAY.

Moving React to the server was a mistake. I've never had a more miserable experience than using @remix_run and @nextjs these days. Can we forget the last 10 years of ""progress"" in JS land and go back to @rails? EVERYONE was happier back then
A good friend and coworker just had his book go to print. hands-on-tdd.com/ I've worked with him for 5 years, and I can tell you, it's a good book on TDD coming from true hands on experience! Buy your copy and leave him a review today!
I'm pretty sure that hearing aids first function isn't to help the wearer hear better, but instead to slowly over the course of a day, remove earwax by clogging the in ear speaker portion several times per day.

As a person with a southern accent…when an actor/actress has a really bad fake southern accent, it feels… I don’t know how to describe it. You want it to stop but you kind of don’t because you’re blown away by the self confidence it must take to do it.
Learning to be deaf is hard. Frustration 982: Today, I had my alarm set, and instead of hearing it, wife woke me telling me it was going off. I’ve had and used this alarm clock for 27 years. Even walking up to it to turn it off, it was inaudible. Yet loud enough to wake my wife.
I’m so happy to see this! signupcaptions.com/
If only I could convince people to learn sign just because of how much easier to understand it is.

In less than 3 minutes, you can understand why I feel so drained after even a brief conversation.

I try to keep my social media away from politics, but I am highly upset about Sarah Huckabee Sanders’ attack on Trans people. Governor, Trans Americans are still Americans and deserve equality.

Just gonna highlight it here:
News related to the deaf and deaf world is signed in ASL on video daily at the dailymoth.com
If you are new or learning, there are english captions provided. Great tool for learners, and a great resource for deaf.

Why is Zoom closed captioning so difficult to set up and enable?! On a @NCworks Zoom meeting where organizers say attendees have a “more” button to enable it. I don’t see it, neither do other attendees who asked for captions. #ADA #accessibility #deaf #NCpol
ALT Zoom chat box, where I asked about enabling closed captioning.
Because there weren't enough retweets for these ppl doing good work for MSD kids. Doing it again!
