Suddenly, I seem to have a kind of internal speech-to text app running in my head. It works best when my eyes are closed and if the speaking is at an average speed and tone. However, I can’t seem to be able to choose a font for the text. I hope it’s not some kind of AI malware!

“Do deaf ASL people think in sign?”

My sister was born profoundly deaf. She can read lips and she can read books. She was taught ASL when she was in a private preschool for the deaf. Her current ASL skills are probably rusty because she lives her life as a ‘non-disabled’ woman, wife and mother working as a professional health insurance enrollment specialist. She uses a CI and is an excellent driver. She and her husband of 34 years have raised three wonderful children and put them all through college. She turns 60 next year, and by that time she will have become a grandmother. As a child, she summarily rejected any notion or prescribed societal “reality” set aside for the deaf and substituted her own. She has a superior IQ and intellect. That being said, I have come to the conclude that “deaf ASL people” do not “think in” any form of sign language.

Maybe she should try a few doses of this:

Electroconvulsive therapy
Electroconvulsive therapy or electroshock therapy is a psychiatric treatment where a generalized seizure is electrically induced to manage refractory mental disorders.

There is someone claiming to be his ex on Quora who goes by Rose Madder. She claims he is a narcissist with psychopathic tendencies.

I don’t know if he is having a laugh on people with his books and videos or if he is really a nutcase. I just know after many of his videos I think to myself I wouldn’t want any family member to date him.
