rpanons | You sound fat

Rundown:

rpanons is an anonymous community for role-play related topics. This place serves as a forum for game discussions, canon discussions, RP solicitations (ATP, game ads, open memes), and advice. The occasional off topic comment is inevitable, but please keep heated social and political topics to their respective communities. Posting them here will only get them frozen. Subsequent threads made to bypass a freeze will then be deleted.

Rules:

Do not post pornographic or shocking images.
Do not share private entries, plurks, chat logs, etc.
Do not use this community as your social/political/hatespeech soapbox.
Do not be redundant. One page does not need three or more threads on one topic/theme. Your unfunny, forced memes also fall under this rule.
Do not treat this comm like your personal therapist. Threads about nonfictional suicide, self injury, rape, and abuse will be deleted. There are better resources out there for you.
Do not treat this comm like your personal Plurk or Twitter. Off-topic happens, but it should be open for discussion and not just a play-by-play of your life. No one cares.
Shut up about Tumblr. If it's not a discussion about Tumblr RP it will be deleted.

a couple of random things i came across about sign language while playing a deaf character:
- british and american sign languages are NOT mutually intelligible
- lots of / flashy jewellery can make signing difficult to follow
- deaf people who grow up without someone to teach them signing and where writing is impractical can end up essentially isolated in their own minds
- lots of things don't actually have a specific word in sign language and are instead fingerspelled
- it's not uncommon for signs requiring two free hands to be adapted to use just one if the person is holding something at the time
- puns in sign language are absolutely a thing, e.g pasteurised milk, the word 'understand', etc
