I was a little heartbroken to see my favorite local cafe selling these stickers, so I made a list of some Deaf artists selling their art online.

[Image ID: a Be kind sticker with English and ASL except 4 instead of B handshape, S instead of E, V instead of K, S instead of N, and 1 instead of D. Over the sticker are the words "this is why we don't buy art from Amazon" with "part of the reason" inserted between "this is" and "why". The word "Wrong" is above all the incorrect handshapes and "wrong in the same way is pointing to the S handshapes that are meant to represent the E and N.

CWs: eugenics, linguicism, linguicide

Today I learned there were many deaf artists in Finland until sign language became forbidden and oralism became the dominant model for education which persisted until the 1970s.

Beautiful, But Broken

#bg3 #tiefling #tw blood #c: Viivi #so I redid my bg3 character because I wasn't feeling durge that much. So now my sibling does durge and I regular tav Viivi #(changed her to tiefling for funs)#at least I meant to do regular tav but uhhhhh things have gone very unfortunately very fast #anyway. Viivi is an artist; she does painting sculpting poetry and some prose. Experimenting with this and that #unfortunately she is deaf which made making connections a bit hard in the fine arts world #fortunately she has a patreon with one very generous patron (she's fey warlock)✨ who has bestowed some gifts of charms for her #which have opened doors of many art galleries #She's not a fighter so although she is confident in her own lane she is also very aware of her mortality #so she avoided any fights she could #which might have saved her but also got her into the mess of her lifetime #you see she couldn't fight the entire goblin camp and their leaders. She would've just not survived that. So she convinced them #that she is a True Soul. She is good at convincing people. It worked. They thought she is on their side. Good #Halsin also though Viivi was on their side. Halsin attacked Viivi's party. Now Halsin is dead.#So Viivi and her group were still alone deep within enemy fort. Viivi made new plans. She frees the prisoner who says he will warn the grov #Good thinks Viivi now they know to flee. I will go to Minthara and tell we got the information from prisoner of the grove location #she will trust us and we walk off #when we get back to grove they have not fled and Minthara is at the gates #Minthara wants Viivi to sound the horn. Zevlor wants Viivi to sound the horn. Viivi asks Zevlor to please tell this plan in detail.#Zevlor says just blow the horn already. Viivi does that. Minthara thanks Viivi for leaving the gate open as planned #Zevlor does not thank Viivi for that. Viivi is confused as she did not leave the gate open. (for real the damn gate was left open)#So I did a Massacre.#now Karlach is gone Wyll is dead. Lae'zel is also dead #but apparently Minthara is ready to be very loving and sincere with Viivi. The most helpful person she has met in very long time.#Viivi might love her #so that is how she's doing.

This is a short personal comic/ stream-of-consciousness I made to mark the last day of Deaf Awareness Month (September). It’s based on something that I’ve experienced a lot in my life, but rarely see mention of, even though it’s a big issue. As a mainstreamed deaf person who grew up without sign language or a Deaf community, I had to learn a lot about advocating for myself and my language needs.

Isolation is very alienating and painful. So the next time you meet a deaf person, please, be patient, and respect the mode of communication they choose.

Image descriptions below.

[Image Description:

A six-page comic about deaf identity titled, ‘What Do I Mean When I Talk About Deaf Loneliness.’ All pages have capitalized text, simple colors, and drawings set on a white background.

The first page shows the title written in black in scratchy, rough lines. The final word, loneliness, is written in thick red marker.

The second page shows countless tiny black circles of the same size scattered over the entire page. The message is written in light blue and reads, ‘I mean not existing in a room full of people.’ The letter O in of is filled-in with dark blue.

The third page shows nine stylized speech bubbles, each a different size and shape and which correspond to the words in the text. The message reads, ‘I mean always being talked about but never talking.’ All the words are light purple, except for the word talking which is a darker violet.

The fourth page shows a large column of text in the middle of the page surrounded by eyes of all different shapes and sizes. The eyes are all staring intensely at the words in the message, which reads, ‘I mean stared at but never seen.’ All the words are green, with the word seen in light green against a dark green background.

The fifth page shows a tangled mess of black threads interwoven within and around the text, trailing off the page. The message reads, ‘I mean being the joke but not laughing.’ All the words are in yellow, except for ‘being’ and ‘laughing’ in dark orange.

The sixth and final page shows three large, mostly abstract drawings stacked with the text. At the top is a loose, sketchy drawing of the sun in yellow, and at the bottom a swathe of tan brushstrokes indicating sand dunes. The message reads, ‘I mean having hands like water in a desert.’ All the words are brown except for the word water, which is bright blue and takes up the center of the page. It fades into a series of blue waves, which morph into various handshapes and letters in American Sign Language that reach up and around the word water, which is also rendered in the ASL fingerspelled alphabet. Finally, the word desert is written in dark brown, and is stylized with scattered brushstrokes to match the sand dunes.
