  1. La poignée de main, c’est à la base un contrôle de sécurité : je te montre que je n’ai pas d’arme… et je vérifie que toi non plus. Geste guerrier recyclé en politesse moderne. #Histoire #Pouvoir #Psychologie #NonVerbal

  2. My elderly grandmother is having increasing difficulty forming words and speaking. I made her a communication device.

    It's 4 double-sided sheets, laminated, containing 8 groupings of Grandma's most common requests. When she is unable to talk, she can point to her directive in order to communicate her needs to her caregivers.

    Alternately, she can plan ahead using a whiteboard marker. 🌸

  4. Is anyone here familiar with using PECS sheets or other point-at-what-I-want tools for seniors that are losing their verbal ability?

    I'm making a poster for my Grandma's bedside with options for her to point at, in order to communicate her needs better to family and attendants.

    Looking for your ideas! 🩷

  6. Laut Financial Times zahlt Apple 2 Milliarden Dollar für Q.ai, ein KI-Audio-Startup, das Gesichtsausdrücke/Mimik nutzt, um Menschen ohne Worte zu verstehen. Bei dem Deal geht es auch um die Nutzung von optischer Sensortechnologie, die in Kopfhörer oder Brillen integriert werden kann, um „Mikrobewegungen der Gesichtshaut“ zu erkennen und so beispielsweise nonverbale Gespräche mit einem KI-Assistenten zu ermöglichen.

  9. RE: woof.group/@aphyr/115810921352

    I so love this! It reminds me that my most common way of communicating in scenes are body motion and non-verbal auditory expressions. No one playing with or observing me misunderstands how I’m feeling.

    My most difficult challenge with scenes is starting them in the first place. So many sensory and social cue barriers! In private sex parties, I’m way more comfy going straight to the play rooms and let the touch cues do their magic.

  10. There is something weird appeasing and calming about suddenly feeling non-verbal (some people refer to it as verbal shutdown).

    Everything is so quiet and calm. My head slows down quite a lot as well, probably because I'm depressed and shutting down, but in a strange way, what is supposed to be a negative symptoms actually fills like my brain slowly resetting itself back to a safe state. It's empty, but I enjoy the stillness of it, it's calm. :bunhdcomfy:

  11. @kylekulinskishow.bsky.social reacts to the LATEST slew of illegal #kidnappings and actions of Trumps masked gestapo goons tackling an #AUTISTIC, #SPECIALNEEDS, #NONVERBAL BOY in the street for no reason, why aren't these cowards attacking the ACTUAL criminals?! youtu.be/6eVQ2of5PwM?...

    WATCH: ICE ASSAULTS NON-VERBAL...

  12. ...i too was #nonverbal as a kiddo and want to remind others that just cos we cant speak doesnt mean we cannot hear and understand...and no. torturing us will not help us speak or "fix" us.

    if you care, realize #communication has more forms than #voices.

    when my kids were babies, i taught them to sign, so they could "voice" their needs without having to be frustrated or left out. caring means thinking outside your own experiences.

  14. I see, big friend, it's hard for you to talk.

    But you still want sign what is going on?
    With a fin or with a push of your nose or so?

    Isn't it hard to say what is on your mind that way?

    You want to know how other plushies do that?
    I'll ask!

    Hej #plushies! How do you sign when you are #nonVerbal?

  16. And I worry that *I* might not be a good person . . . (ProPublica) Per a police report, the boy, who is #nonverbal would not stop playing with blocks and go to P.E.

    A substitute teacher then dragged him to the gym by his ankle. A staffer photographed the dragging and alerted school leadership. @actuallyautistic

  18. if anything my #nonverbal over the last 3 years has done outside our family, a bunch of delivery drivers now thank you in #BSL

  19. Reading #SherlockHolmes and finding I relate to this quote, in my own kind of way, in terms of experiencing #nonverbal episodes and being connected to a number of people who tend to not really understand what is happening and become upset at my unwillingness to communicate with them.

    “... the instant that I can communicate with you without endangering my own combinations, I shall do so.”

  20. Has anyone else listened to #TheTelepathyTapes podcast? I just finished Episode 7. Really fascinating stuff. Excited to listen to more.

  22. My phone has an awesome text to speech feature, so as a non-verbal person I can still make and receive phone calls.

    Once it is running, it's great. But there is a 20 to 35 second pause while it shows up in my end so I can type and then I can't copy and paste, so I've got to quickly type, too short like "hi" the other end doesn't get it, too long I'm making typos or too slow and they hang up.

    I really wish there was a way to get this sorted

  23. Fundsache. "Gibt es über den Ostdeutschen auch etwas Positives zu sagen?"

    Und das läuft unter der Überschrift #Knigge. #Höflichkeit #politeness

    Das mit der "Schwester Angelika" hängt mit dem besseren Standing der hiesigen #Frauen zusammen. Das ist halt gestandene Kompetenz statt dekoratives Parken bis zur Familiengründung.

  24. my parents can't even handle a #NonVerbal adult (me, late this morning), boy am I glad we're not giving them human grandchildren. credit goes to spouse for the thought but I figured I'd share.

  25. As promised here is Part 2! 👌👌

    🌍✨ Did you know that non-verbal communication can speak volumes when you’re learning a language? Sometimes a wave, a thumbs-up, or even a simple nod can break down barriers faster than any phrasebook! 🤗✌️

    When we teach and share Hebrew, we love incorporating gestures to bring the language to life. Whether it’s showing someone how to say “peace” with a handshake or mimicking the actions of daily life, these little movements make learning Hebrew even more engaging and exciting! 🙋‍♂️💬

    So next time words fail, let your hands, eyes, and even your smile do the talking! 😊 What’s your favorite gesture when learning or sharing a language?

  27. Shabbat Shalom and Good Morning, everyone!

    Today’s video lesson is here, and it’s a little silly, but hey—sometimes the best way to learn is to laugh while doing it! Whether you’re mastering serious verb conjugations or having fun with Hebrew tongue-twisters, every step in your language journey counts. 🎉

    Take a few moments to enjoy, smile, and most importantly, embrace this beautiful Shabbat ahead. Wishing you a peaceful, joyful, and Hebrew-filled day!

    Shabbat Shalom! 🌸

  29. info for my fellow UK citizens who have
    #speech or hearing requirements when contacting 999

    this has been on my mind for a while as the Google text to speech on my pixel phone, while amazing, people hang up often because it sounds like a robocall

  30. The first run of the #CommCards are in!

    I'm beyond excited to have the physical version available at last. There are some small issues with them (which I mentioned recently) but they'll be fixed for next time.

    These initial ten are going to locals, but future runs will be on a grander scale. They'll be in the neighborhood of $30 with no alterations, and around $40 for customizations/extras.

    As ever, let me know what y'all think!

  31. A about two weeks ago, I posted about having made cards for a friend who experiences #SelectiveMutism (often called #Nonverbal, which I now understand to be inaccurate; thanks folks!) and asked if other #Neurodivergent folks would have interest in more.

    After an incredible response, I set to work immediately on rebuilding the project to a much higher standard!

    Have a look! 😀

  32. I just applied for a job requiring...no, demanding that I'm able to speak English.
    I'm pretty sure I'd be able to use the equalities act and reasonable adjustments.

    but I'm going with I can speak English, I'm just currently unable to vocalise that English.
