Anyway, the roof of my mouth was raw for a whole day after this incident.
Anyone know what a ciabatta chicken sandwich is? It's like ciabatta bread, pesto, tomatoes, basil, and balsalmic glaze? And like, the bread is toasted. Oh, and theres mozzarella too. And you're just eating it, and it's just the most scrumptious thing, so you shove it into your face orifice with little to no regard for safety. And then the bread is super toasty, and you are taking big bites out of it, and it's really tasty, but the next thing you know it's over and the roof of your mouth is bleeding and raw from the sharp, toasty ciabatta bread?
Or is this an incredibly specific experience that no one relates to?
Oh, and a niche but potentially useful resource for any sign language is the signwriting script. As opposed to sign gloss, which afaik was made for Hearing folks, signwriting conveys the exact visual-spatial dynamics of signing. It includes non-manual markers, variations in signs based on context, and specialized punctuation.
I won't go too into detail, but here's some links:

And here's an example
Deaf
I just think it's cool. Thoughts??
I’ve said this before and I’ll say it again but it is absolutely an example of civilizational inadequacy that only deaf people know ASL
“oh we shouldn’t teach children this language, it will only come in handy if they [checks notes] ever have to talk in a situation where it’s noisy or they need to be quiet”
Life could be a dream

"Ah yes, John Arcane. He must have a respectable career of doing Job at Place."
will never forget the person in a worldbuilding Discord whose setting had John Arcane be the "inventor of magic" JOHN ARCANE
INVENTOR OF MAGIC
"Taking inventory of the fucks which one gives"
Manager: Has anyone taken inventory yet?
Supervisor: I put 2 whole new hires on it.
Manager: We'll meet quota, right? We need at least 11 fucks to give come next quarter. (Corporate told them 46k)
Supervisor: Well, we're down by two elf percent since last quarter, not counting July.
New Hire #1: I've got the stats on inventory, and...
Supervisor: And what?
New Hire #1.3̅: We're out of fucks to give.
More favourite numerical memes:
Implicit or explicit enumeration of uncountable things (example: taking inventory of the fucks which one gives)
Suggesting the divisibility of things which are not customarily thought of as able to be subdivided (example: "six whole people")
Using words that aren't numbers as numbers (example: "one William dollars")
Technically correct but contextually misleading estimates (example: looking at a group of several thousand things and observing that there are "at least three")
Incongruous qualifiers for apparently simple sums or tallies (example: she was twenty-seven years old, not counting 2014)
Joking about suicide indicates a lack of belief in human dignity and the intrinsic worth of all persons.
That's it.
About a week ago I posted this.
I’ve been getting horrible messages like this in my ask for months, including:
and my personal favorite
After getting the message saying “Just go kill yourself” I was completely done dealing with this person’s horrible messages and replied with just an “Okay.” and logged off tumblr.
About a week later I logged back on with 17 messages in my ask, most of them from the anon. I scrolled down and at first when I logged off, the anon messaged me things like
I scrolled up more and all of a sudden they started sending me more and more messages like
This was extremely surprising to me. I thought “After all those horrible messages you sent to me for MONTHS about hating me and wanting me dead, you say ‘sorry’ and that you ‘cant be responsible for someone’s suicide’?”
But I guess the lesson goes like this:
DONT TELL ANYONE TO KILL THEMSELVES UNLESS YOU ARE PREPARED FOR WHAT MIGHT ACTUALLY HAPPEN
