My answer to how I learned to fingerspell so fast. Basically: practice, practice, practice. Also, fingerspelling fast is not the same as fingerspelling good. My opinion? It’s better to know a lot of signs and fingerspell slow than to fingerspell fast, but have to rely on it too much.

No, an 8 minute video with no sound does NOT, I repeat, does NOT give you any real insight to being d/Deaf >< Goddamn.
But, aside from the comments, for ONCE, this is a pretty cute video (note how the guy signs “Awkward turtle” instead of “turtle”, but I’m thinking this is BSL based on the…

My Facebook feed is filled with people who want Ron Paul to get the nomination. It’s funny though. They can’t participate in a real conversation about his political positions. They just say, “He wants less government and he will legalize weed!!!!!!” They have NO IDEA that he…

This vlog is undoubtedly riddled with errors, but I’m trying to sign more to improve my grammar. And if you have a chance to see Deaf Jam, do it! An amazing film.

ALSO I have been dreaming about dying a lot. And I know, I know, as an atheist-type person I should be above premonitions and superstitions and death, but when your only dreams are death-related it starts to feel a little personal.
Becoming a Better Person Can Suck It
After working really hard for the last two months, my motivation to get work done is dwindling. Which isn’t good, since I do freelance and not working means no money which means disaster.
Professionally, 2011 was a really up and down year for me, but I felt it ended on a great note. I’ve never enjoyed a job like the one I have now, which is great. On the downside, it’s hard to...

You mean Doctor Who the show that’s been running since 1963 save a gap from 1989-2005? And which hasn’t gone off the air for 16 months? The show that we have a…
Can’t you’re argument also...
