1. You can communicate through windows
2. Sign language is a 3-D Language
3. You can sign with your mouth full
4. Hearing parents can communicate with their Deaf child
5. You can sign underwater
6. Sign Language is a neat way to express yourself
7. You can communicate across a room or via mirror without shouting
8. Sign language is beautiful
9. You can make friends with Deaf people
10. Sign language brings together Hearing & Deaf people

Also if you really want to learn most deaf people are so happy that you are interested in learning and will be super patient and work with you. 

And it’s a really great thing to be able to do for any job because imagine having to go everywhere with someone that can translate for you or with paper to write or trying to read lips and just going to grab a cup of coffee and Hey, the barista knows sign language. They aren’t great but you get to speak with them and order your coffee in the way that’s natural to you like that would just make your day. Or a teacher that can talk and sign so classes don’t have to divide?? Or a therapist that can sign?? Hearing people signing 2k15 honestly.

Plus sign language is simpler and faster to learn than written/spoken languages. And there are lots of resources online for any language you may want to learn:

  • School of Sign Language is great for British Sign Language (BSL)
  • ASLU looks less fancy but it’s great and super complete for learning American Sign Language(ASL)
  • Comunicación en LSE tiene unos video para los básicos muy básicos en Lengua de Signos Española (LSE)
  • I aquí hi ha una complicació ja feta d’on aprendre Llengua de Signes Catalana (LSC)

And you can always google for Deaf/Hard of hearing places/centers in your city and go ask, most of them offer free or really affordable courses

There’s a lot of young people who are going to be eligible to vote in America during this election so in light of the fact that this website is currently thrumming with political interest I’d just like to remind them that abstaining from voting is not useful or radical, it’s playing right into the hands of the people who want this country to progress backwards. I can guarantee you that there will be an ENORMOUS conservative turn out and if the younger generation doesn’t match it it will literally be a disaster

No but I actually talk to myself a lot and it’s an actual big problem, like I’ll be thinking something or imagining a conversation in my head and I’ll start muttering or mouthing the words and sometimes I even start making faces and I don’t even realize I’m doing it and it’s actually a really big issue.
