the struggle of wanting to write but the sound of the keys being too overstimulating
solution: blast music so you can't hear the keys

"Did you hear that?" in media, my beloved. Please let my Deaf arse know there was a noise. /light-hearted, positive.
So I had an appointment with my audiologist yesterday. Apparently they can see how long you have been wearing your cochlear implants per day on average and then will mildly tell you off if it's not in double digits.
I feel like 7 hours a day on average is plenty. Like I will wear my processors all day at work but then not very much when I'm just at home or on the weekends. Like I just have them on when I actually need to hear stuff.
Also, it's not like it's hindering my progress with the implants. My speech discrimination is in the top 10% of cochlear implant users. So I feel like it's not really that necessary for me to be wearing my processors all day every day to get the benefit from them.
Also FYI, I am a grown adult (26) and it just seems a bit invasive to have my audiologist able to see my time "on air" (yes, that is the official term). Like quite frankly I don't really think it's any of their business.
Is this audism/ableism, or am I just being ridiculous about the audiologist doing their job?
Just discovered Mark Drolsbaugh. Haven't read any of his work yet but my gosh I'm looking forward to reading his stuff so much. I'm tearing up just over the descriptions of his books. It's just so fucking wonderful to know that someone understands, other people understand! Someone else understands what it's like to be deaf in a mainstream school. And to grow up deaf with deaf relatives, but without Deaf culture. It's a wonderful feeling. I'm so excited to read Madness in the Mainstream.
Hi! Sorry, I've been wanting to ask this but wasn't sure where to ask, and since you made a post about captions I figured you might be able to answer!
Should I include filler words/stuttering in the caption? Like "What you need to know is- Um. Uh. Uh. What you- Ok, hold on, I need to look something up" as opposed to "Ok, hold on, I need to look something up" (with the entirety of the first part of filler/stuttering cut out from the captions)
I was always under the assumption that it should be the former with it included, but I've been watching a show with very professional/well done captions that does the ladder
I'm not deaf nor rely on captions, but I like to have them on if they're human-made because it helps me follow along with the video (I might have audio processing disorder idk? I can definitely watch without captions tho). I'd personally prefer the former but I understand I am not the type who really needs these captions, and so I want opinions from people who do
Thoughts?
The point of the captions is to give the deaf viewer the same information as the hearing viewer. This of course includes the actual dialogue. Because the second option isn’t the actual dialogue, it is a summary of the dialogue and therefore not acceptable.
In this specific example the actual dialogue is conveying nervous speech, and a lot of character details. The summary is not doing that. My deaf ass might as well be watching a different show than the hearing people.
So yeah, the first one. Obviously.

Me: as a Deaf person—
Thousands of people, for some reason: well I’m not deaf but I have audio processing problems and
Can everyone who makes video content do a Deaf bitch a favor? Watch your shit with the captions on and the sound off, and then do another round of editing to fix things including but not limited to:
Captions cover the spot on the screen you put the information I need
The dialogue is captioned but not the song you have playing that the dialogue is responding to
You only captioned the person on the screen, not the person off screen who is also talking
No captioning of critical sound effects (alarms, bells, dogs barking, etc)
Speakers are not labelled at moments where it is not clear on the screen who is talking.
Captions cover the spot on the screen that you put the information I need!
Other d/Deaf people welcome to add.
This post brought to you by the fifth video tutorial I could not follow because the bad, auto-generated captions covered what I was trying to watch today.
Coining a new term!
'Deaf Noise':
The non-language sounds that Deaf people make when signing and communicating with one another. Examples:
Mumbling/muttering the spoken language equivalent to what one is signing while signing (e.g. saying "Mah nam E-ie" while signing "MY NAME ELLIE" in Auslan)
Grunting/trilling/etc to emphasise one's signing
Grunting or shouting (not words) to grab each other's attention
Stomping as an equivalent to/form of applause (especially for DeafBlind individuals)
Basically, any intentional sound or noise Deaf people make that would be uncommon or socially unacceptable in Hearing society.
