Not a cat

As you can see here, right from the very first day he entered our house, Jim found great difficulty in getting settled and making the environment his own.

THREAD.

3 & 1/4 years ago, with no warning, a brilliant orange farm cat wandered over from the draughty barn where he'd been living, in rural Cornwall, & decided he wanted to live with us instead.

We decided to call him Jim.

This is the first photo I took of him, on that night: December 1st 2022

Lorca, poetry and sign language: a Spanish play breaking barriers Spain's National Drama Centre in Madrid presents a production rooted in Deaf culture, directed by Ángela Ibáñez Castaño and performed by Emma Vallejo and Mari López, that recasts Lorca as a cry agains...

Early 2000's me loved giving money and clicks to the tabloids ripping Britney to shreds

Maybe it was envy confused with dislike, because music wasn't relevant to me as a deaf chick

Maybe I instinctively recoiled against an unrealistic barometer of beauty and expectations

Internalized sexism too

Society loves to manipulate and mold women according to rigid unrealistic standards
Women are a category of circus animals, a rung below lions and Britney was no exception

Her turning 18 was a cause of celebration, not because she lived another year, but because she was finally of legal fucking age

While the McDonald’s CEO gets roasted for his awkward burger taste test...

McDonald’s is among the top employers of workers who rely on food stamps.

And McDonald's CEO recently raked in $18.2M — over 1,000x the company's median employee pay.

That should leave a bad taste in your mouth.

A black & white World War II era political cartoon by Dr. Seuss: A banner that says, "The Great U.S. Side Show" Two men standing on a stage. One has "America First" written across his coat. The other has a big swastika on his vest. They both have long white beards which are attached to each other in the middle. Below is a carnival barker (who kind of looks like Uncle Sam). He is using a cane to point to the men on stage & he is using a bullhorn to talk to a crowd that's gathered around. The text says: "And on this platform, folks, those most perplexing people... the Lads with the Siamese Beard! Unrelated by blood, they are joined in a manner that mystifies the mightiest minds of the land!"

I have a theory that deaf people mouth words better than hearing people because we don't have to contend with phonological nonsense such as silent vowels.

That and the collective experience of speech therapy *shudder*
