The obvious advantage of streaming over movie theater movies is you can watch them at home. The secret weapon of the streamers, particularly when it comes to movies where the characters have strong accents: subtitles.

With hearing loss, eating is really LOUD at times so I explored this theme @hearinglosslive.bsky.social hearinglosslive.com/eating-heari...

At the SayWhatClub convention in Galveston. Being with others who have #hearingloss, and places that have all the needed #accommodations, makes me feel like I have come home.

Accommodations include: facing us while talking, being within 6 feet, captions and assistive listening. Learn more with Hearing Loss LIVE!

#UtahPride Parade today. I could feel the abundance of love and acceptance. I wish there was a lot more of that in life.

Lots of people with hearing loss don't speak up for their communication needs, from small personal requests to bigger accommodations. This free workshop is Tuesday June 3, online and LIVE. Sign up at hearinglosslive.com/contact and Let's Talk about it.

#Lipreading comes naturally to some degree. We do it subconsciously but we aren't really good at it until we learn to manage them consciously. Here's a practice sentence. Can't get it? Join a hearinglosslive.com class next month.

Snake River falls in Idaho: Shoshone, Star and American waterfalls. The last two were loud enough for compression to kick in with my hearing aids.

Cicadas - I am profound deaf the high frequencies so I don't hear them. It's also one of the sounds of my tinnitus. www.youtube.com/shorts/M4XqN...

I love the that companies give #HearingAid users more control over their hearing. Speech focus, hell yeah!

May Day in Utah.

State organizations that advocate for disabled residents in New Jersey and Arkansas announced that they will have to limit their work after not receiving the full funds they are owed by the US federal government.

We need the best educated workforce in the world. We need the best teachers in the world. We need to pay our teachers fairly for the important work they do. No teacher in America should begin at less than $60,000 a year.

This sucks. Hopefully they added new and cool features with the update. #HearingLossProblems

People think lipreading is all about the lip shapes. Wrong. That's why we teach strategies first. Register for live or video class here: hearinglosslive.com/register-for... #Lipreading #Speechreading #CommunicationSkills #HardOfHearing #HearingLoss #OnlineClass #LiveInstructor #HearingLossLIVE

"I often say that hearing aids are like umbrellas. They don’t stop the rain, but they help you stay dry. Similarly, hearing aids won’t reverse hearing loss or prevent aging. But they can reduce the strain of listening." From: theconversation.com/its-not-just... @theconversation.com #keeplistening

Common lipreading misconception: it's all about the lip shapes. Many sounds in speech are not visible & many words look alike so we gotta have strategies & workarounds. Lipreading Strategies class is online and starts on Monday.

A few small changes to communication and I can participate in life just fine.

I love my 1 on 1 lipreading sessions with people who have hearing loss. I tailor the lessons to their needs. It's a wonderful feeling to watch people grow in confidence and begin to advocate for their needs. I have a few openings for anyone interested.

Hearing aids aren't called "hearing miracles" for a reason. They have limits. Do you want conversation to go smoother? Be within 6 feet and face the person with hearing loss.

Manage your #HearingLoss, don't let it manage you.

Hearing aid batteries. I go through a lot of them at work streaming meetings and sometimes music to keep me in my chair.

The Salt Lake Acting Company provides open captioned performances along with ASL interpreted, descriptive and sensory sensitive performances. Bravo. #SLAC #Accessible #Theater

Want to know what high frequency #HearingLoss looks like? Here's a visual for age related and noise induced hearing looks like. This is why we hear voices but can't understand words.

"Manor found a conference report from the 1960s that showed enhanced hearing in people after they consumed LSD." From: www.the-scientist.com/trippy-heari... #loveyourears #keeplistening

Lots of people enjoy captions, not just those with hearing loss. #CaptionsMatter
