Final Twitter post. At a time of rising fascism, we must restore communities and build a praxis that protects the vulnerable, including the young and old and uplifts deaf and disabled people. Mutual aid is nongovernmental, uncoerced. Find me on: bsky.app/profile/michae…
Deafness does not cause language deprivation. People cause language deprivation in deaf children.
I finally got to see the printed version of my first disability history zine, and it looks amazing. Buy it or download it for free here : seditionist.uk/distro/readabl…
Watching “Deaf And…” and it’s like it was made for my Critical Issues class @YaleLinguistics. #deafidentity #deafepistemology @MichaelSkyer @jaceyhill @DerrickBehm youtube.com/playlist?list=…
It's tax season. I’d like to write off the thousands of hours in "deaf tax" payments, but my accountant says no such deduction exists.
If you're curious about deaf and disabled academic life and life in general for people with complex health issues, you can read my new interview with Children's Tumor Foundation about my Neurofibromatosis 2-related Schwannomatosis diagnosis: ctf.org/news/a-convers…
This is one of the most interesting things that I've had the pleasure of being cited in. I am honored and humbled to be included in this group of deaf scholars and scholars of deafness. Being included alongside Jon's name made me misty, too. Rest in Power.

I was honored to be invited to participate in this with so many luminaries of our communities! Looking forward to seeing the full episodes
Teaser trailer for "DEAF AND..." Episode One, DEAF IDENTITY. youtube.com/watch?v=T8CYhg… The official release date Oct. 14th 2023 at NTID's 55th Reunion. I'm grateful to Ren and Darien for involving me in this filming project back in 2021. A long last, it is here!
Some deaf education researchers, I swear, just loathe deaf children.
Sooner or later somebody is going to propose cochlear implants in vitro as the next panacea.
Yesterday, I looked up how to download all my tweets, since I plan to leave this site. I was able to find the information on Twitter's help page. Following the announcement about the "small monthly fee" for users, guess what page got wiped?
