ASL has an infinite space for wordplay. Signs may begin as one word but transform into a question with a shift of the eyebrows — or, with a different hand movement, help you to get the joke. nyti.ms/3wChKul
This is probably my top favorite cross-disciplinary collaboration. It was amazing working with everyone bringing our experiences and expertise together in this paper and reflecting on how AI could be done if centering signing experiences, as heterogenous as they are

Sign language AI is dominated by hearing, non-signing researchers. What kinds of systemic biases does this introduce in the field's collective direction? To find out, read our preprint, with @aashaka_desai @mdemeulder @jahochcam and Annemarie Kocab! arxiv.org/abs/2403.02563
A fun article from @ahoysamantha today that delves a little into jokes & wordplay in ASL — showing just how cool the language is. Plus it features one of my favorite linguists, @jahochcam - who is so incredibly smart & fascinating to talk with: nytimes.com/2024/03/04/cro…
“I realise I am very privileged that I have made it this far,” Kusters said. “But I am standing on the shoulders of the deaf lecturers and scholars who educated me – and I support others to stand on mine.” So proud of @AnneliesKusters ! #drdeaf bit.ly/3FH1pWE

The list of Congress-members calling for a #CeasefireNOW is growing. We need to keep the pressure up so more of our political leaders choose ceasefire and not more bloodshed. Join an action near you to help make this happen: ifnotnowmovement.org/upcoming-events
We must do everything we can to save lives. @RepRashida, @RepAndreCarson, @RepSummerLee, @repdeliaramirez, and I are introducing the #CeasefireNOW Resolution to call for an immediate de-escalation and ceasefire in Israel and Palestine. I urge my colleagues to join us.

@jmhenner liked to external process here, so I’m going to try it too. The responses from folks to my last post have been overwhelming in the best possible way. I feel like you all didn’t feel half as warm and fuzzy about him when he was alive 😝😜. (Channeling him here a lot)
After never completing previous drafts, I today put together a short tutorial called "R for Sign Language Linguistics": borstell.github.io/misc/r4sl/

Totally reasonable question here. The clueless hearing people getting all righteously indignant and saying wrong things very authoritatively are pissing me off though.
I was at a conference and having a hard time hearing, so I watched their ASL interpreter instead, and then later the interpreter signed to me directly (hard of hearing) who was sitting in the crowd. He asked if I was hearing, I signed yes. He LEFT lmao. Should I have signed HOH?
Here's a Stumpy timeline from 2016 to the present. Stumpy lost a few branches during the past eight years while the remaining branches grew longer. And Stumpy is more hollowed now than in 2016. But overall, the tree hasn't changed too much.
I told a visitor I'm deaf and he didn't know how to react, so he just said "congratulations" 😂
Here's a shot of the Stumpy crowd this afternoon. @capitalweather

Sorry I Was Weird When You Saw Me in Public, I Didn’t Expect To Be Interacted With While On This Errand: A Neurospicy Memoir
Ironically, one of the things that attracted me to linguistic anthropology in the 90s, especially ethnopoetics, and turned me away from linguistics and some sociolinguistics, was the tradition of humanizing those we worked with
Fuck it I’m getting the hearing aid and I’m bedazzling it. I can’t take it anymore. Why do people get an attitude when you ask them to talk louder? I don’t want to cuss people out because they get offended that I can’t hear them.
This may cause some controversy, but for me developing science signs specific to my field instead of using the majority of my time on my research was a lot and dreadful although it means establishing signs to make the communication for future scientists a bit easier.

Had a great time as a debater at Gallaudet’s second annual distinguished debate. My opponent was formidable but we obviously had a great time. I took the affirmative position: hearing people should be allowed to formally teach ASL. I won the audience vote, surprise!

Our review of 101 sign language AI papers reveals systemic biases in the current state of the research and misalignment with broader deaf languaging patterns. Some of these biases are now baked-in as standards. Time for Deaf-led research to shape the future of sign language AI.
Sign language AI is dominated by hearing, non-signing researchers. What kinds of systemic biases does this introduce in the field's collective direction? To find out, read our preprint, with @aashaka_desai @mdemeulder @jahochcam and Annemarie Kocab! arxiv.org/abs/2403.02563
Latest publication just dropped. Chapter 3: On epistemic violence in sign language interpreting in this volume edited by Esther Monzó-Nebot and María Lomeña- Galiano.
I’m just an ageing hearing bimodal bilingual, standing here and asking the field to please stop saying ‘oral presentations’. 😂
ASL has an infinite space for wordplay. Signs may begin as one word but transform into a question with a shift of the eyebrows — or, with a different hand movement, help you to get the joke. nyti.ms/3wChKul
“Individually, research projects have to balance limited resources. Our analysis suggests that collectively, however, decisions on where to concentrate resources are biased by what hearing researchers consider important, not what best serves Deaf stakeholders and language.”

This was a truly collective effort, involving multi-disciplinary discussions between collaborators. By creating a DHH only space between authors, we were all able to speak openly and with subtlety - I learned so much from each of the authors. arxiv.org/abs/2403.02563
Our call is not perfect: Deaf people are not immune to participating in systemic biases, and our call can be corrupted to become tokenizing. But the field needs to start a conversation: how do we more intentionally approach research, and address biases from positionality?
