this is so ironic
but the very first boy who ever asked me out
has become my first [actual, legit] date
even after so many years have passed. [Like eight years or so?]
People mistake ovulation and menstruation to be the same thing when in fact they aren’t
Ovulation is when the eggs are saying “hello friends I am here”
And menstuation is when the eggs are saying “goodbye friends I am gone”
around this time last year people finally started taking notice of the food-related issues in the upper northern reaches of Canada; consider this your reminder that even since then, juice is still $26 in Pangnirtung, Nunavut, and that the predominately indigenous communities in Canada’s North are forced to pay extraordinarily exorbitant prices for basic groceries due to structural inequity and the contemporary effects of ongoing settler occupation.

This has been something I've been thinking about for a bit, and I was just wondering your thoughts on it; since Deaf Culture is its own culture, would it be considered cultural appropriation if say, a hearing person decided to make up their own sign name? For more context, let's say this hearing person isn't in any way associated with Deaf Culture or Deaf people, but they just wanted a sign name because it seemed "awesome", and/or they think sign language is interesting/amazing/etc.
Hmmmm, this is kind of a tough question.
Well, in my opinion if a hearing person wanted to make up their own sign name, that’s alright with me—hopefully they will actually want to learn sign language—-the point of sign names is for people to identify who they are in conversations and whatnot and if they don’t plan on being a part of the deaf community, why would they even spend time thinking about a sign name? lol.
It does get annoying though, when people are like, “omg teach me sign language and make up a sign name for me” when they basically don’t do anything to learn the language on their own time… *rolls eyes*
Hmmmmmmmmmmm. Any other deaf ppl or CODAS want to take up this question? I’m not sure if it’s considered “cultural appropriation.” Maybe just really culturally insensitive and ignorant?
ohgod i’m going to throw up rainbows and unicorns and possibly actual vomit
just made a date with a very old guy friend who recently reconnected with me.
we used to be sparring partners in MMA together
and he was also the first boy to ask me out officially
and I basically said, “IDK, I’ll get back to you on that” and never talked to him again because i was such a wussy…. then we met up like YEARS later and basically left on an awkward note….
never saw him again, and then we found each other on facebook last year, talked via message sometimes, and then we stopped talking cuz we both got busy
and then TONIGHT he randomly messages me and says hey, and IDK what compelled me to do this, BUT i asked if we could hang out and grab some lunch to catch up on everything!
he was like “i’d love that, let’s get some ban thai food” and i was like sweeeetttt
and then he asked if it was a date and I was like, “it’s whatever you want it to be”
and so basically that was how I, by the powers of serendipity, got myself a date on friday … ????
