Avenging_Mikon posted:Aren't there some people who are seriously in to Deaf Culture, and are completely against things like cochlear implants because it means being Deaf isn't a Lifestyle any more? I've only heard, never met anyone like that myself, so I dunno. It's a whole loving thing because they have "their own language". They are like the grumpy rear end in a top hat disability.

chitoryu12 posted:"Deaf culture" has gone to some bizarre, occasionally horrifying lengths to try and normalize their disability, from attempting to redefine it as anything other than a disability to vilifying cochlear implants and those who receive them. It feels like an attitude born out of going too far to try and gain respect, swerving from "Hey, don't be assholes to deaf people and put some more Braille around here" to "The deaf have a beautiful culture, and nobody can understand us but us. This is why we need to make more people deaf." Suburban white kids make me lol

I'm sorry, guys. If I could explain any of this assholery I would, but I'm just as baffled as you are.

It's hilarious how they managed to come up with something that has pissed literally everybody off. And we haven't even had the people with big sticks chime in yet. Unfortunately, I can derive only the smallest amount of joy in the suffering because I know that they'll all just gently caress it up even worse

burexas.irom posted:Quality dronenfreude I always enjoy watching people crash expensive drones into poo poo, but I'm going to have to say that a guy crashing his drone into one of the towers of the goddamn Hagia Sophia is some of the best schadenfreude I've gotten from this thread. I thought the one flying it into the butte in the middle of the desert was always going to be my favorite, but I could never have guessed what'd top it.

Annoying weird kid keeps interrupting a speedrunner at a convention(yeah, that's a thing. i'm surprised too.) and finally gets told to shut up. Well worth watching the whole thing. It's like a build up of cringe into a volcano of awkwardness. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H50nqenYMDM

If he grows up without the implant then the choice is being made for him.
