Hearing Loss: Understanding the Causes and Consequences
Hearing loss is a common and often debilitating condition that affects millions of people around the world. It occurs when there is damage to the inner ear, the auditory nerve, or other parts of the ear that are responsible for transmitting sound to the brain.
Hearing Loss Causes
There are many different causes of hearing loss, including genetics, aging, exposure to loud noise, infections, and certain medications. People with a family history of hearing loss are more likely to experience it themselves, and it is also more common in older individuals. Noise exposure is a common cause of hearing loss, especially among people who work in noisy environments or listen to loud music.
Hearing loss can have a profound impact on a person's life. It can make it difficult to understand speech and follow conversations, especially in noisy environments. This can lead to social isolation, depression, and difficulty communicating with friends and family. It can also affect a person's ability to work, as they may struggle to understand instructions and collaborate with colleagues.
There are several types of hearing loss, including conductive hearing loss, sensorineural hearing loss, and mixed hearing loss. Conductive hearing loss occurs when there is a problem with the outer or middle ear, such as fluid buildup or damage to the eardrum. Sensorineural hearing loss occurs when there is damage to the inner ear or auditory nerve. Mixed hearing loss is a combination of both.
Treatment for hearing loss depends on the cause and type of hearing loss. In some cases, it can be treated with surgery or medication. In other cases, hearing aids or cochlear implants may be recommended to improve hearing.
Preventing hearing loss is important to ensure that it doesn't become a problem in the future. This means avoiding loud noise, wearing ear protection when working in noisy environments, and protecting your hearing from damage caused by medications or other harmful substances. Additionally, regular hearing tests can help detect hearing loss early and allow for prompt treatment.
In conclusion, hearing loss is a widespread and often debilitating condition that can have a significant impact on a person's life. Understanding the causes and consequences of hearing loss is crucial to preventing and treating it effectively. If you or someone you know is experiencing hearing loss, it is important to seek help from a healthcare provider as soon as possible.

faint idea dump. alternative universe where both wukong and the destined one exist at the same time.
since destined one doesn't talk nearly as much, modern!reader during their journey to do something decided to start teaching him sign language to communicate if he doesn't feel like talking, and wukong doesn't enjoy it too much because it gives reader a reason to touch the destined one a lot
#reader has hearing loss after birth and uses a hearing aid that somehow survived during the universe jump#wukong seems like he doesn't like the idea of sign language and even ridicules it a little given that everyone present can actually talk#but actually pays close attention to the lessons and once when a monster made the hearing aid fall out#and it broke and reader can't hear very clearly thus causing major anxiety#wukong pulls them aside and started to sign choppy sentences to them to calm them down. reader laughs and fixes his signs.#first time their hands ever touched#.idea dump#black myth wukong#sun wukong x reader

I’ve seen a few people asking why Thrawn would attack the New Republic – shouldn’t he join them and fix the system from the inside, or just go back to the Ascendancy? Why would he destabilize the galaxy further?
But if you think about it
Really, the only reason Thrawn needs is to believe that the New Republic is a threat to the galaxy. Which, well...
Thrawn joined the Empire to oppose the Grysk, because Thrawn believes in a strong military. Thrawn’s not good at politics, and deals with everything in military terms – remember the Lioaoin's economic issues? That’s why he got along with the Empire, and why he put up with all their crap. In Thrawn’s head, big military = big victory = stop bad guys = good.
Enter the New Republic.
What are they doing? Disarming. While there are still pirates, the Hutts, Imperial Remnants, and, of course, the Grysk nipping at their heels. In the midst of a tumultuous time, they are deliberately weakening their ability to meet the challenges ahead, and opening the galaxy to invasion. Says Thrawn.
It doesn’t even matter if they’re Grysk influenced or just stupid – it’s the same result. The galaxy loses. His people lose. Says Thrawn.
What do you expect him to do? Join them? Of course not – he at least knows he’s terrible at politics. And the New Republic is all politics – it would put him at a disadvantage, in a fight he cannot afford to lose. And it would open him to attacks on fronts where he has no power: trials for war crimes, possibly leading to execution – or worse. The Mind Flayer.
You think Thrawn would risk his mind?
Besides, better to ask forgiveness than permission, as they say.
And if you want something done right, do it yourself.
Conquering the New Republic would be better for everyone, Thrawn says. It would save the galaxy from annihilation, allow him to turn the resources of the Empire against evil, bring peace and order to the galaxy and beyond. He would keep all the good of the Empire, Thrawn says, while getting rid of all of the bad, Thrawn says – whatever that means to him.
For the greater good, Thrawn says.
Everything he’s done has always been for the greater good, Thrawn says.
The tragedy is that he believes it.
#as they say#the road to hell is paved with good intentions#long post#star wars#thrawn#mitth'raw'nuruodo#the new republic#just some thoughts#things bouncing around my head#as i watch the new show#and hear people talking about it#good intentions don't excuse his actions#he means well#but he's caused harm#and will cause harm#because the harm he's causing#is a lower priority for him#than his own goals#“acceptable losses”#acceptable for who?#greater good for who?#well#that's the sticky part#morally grey characters everyone#grand admiral thrawn#my thoughts#ahsoka show#star wars: rebels#grysk#chiss ascendancy

I won't lie, I'm a bit disappointed in Max Verstappen fans after Lando's win yesterday. A lot of people are discrediting Lando and McLaren in general. The fact of the matter is that Lando deserved that win.
Yes, it was a lucky safety car. But I think you all are forgetting Max's first win came in part because the Mercedes drivers took each other out. Are you now arguing that Max is a shit driver that doesn't deserve that win because it involved luck there too?
Lando is a fantastic driver and this win is long overdue. It might make you feel better to discuss what ifs but even if we do, that doesn't change the results, and it's honestly just incredibly disrespectful of the work the McLaren engineers put into the upgrades, the efforts of the strategists, and the solid drive that Lando put in.
#also before people start talking about Max's floor damage#yes the floor was damaged and that was not the true pace of the car#yes that does mean that Imola will probably be much better#but who put that damage there?#it was max#nobody else was driving#he was and he caused the damage#ik that's shocking to hear that max made a mistake#but in racing#it's all about capitalizing on other's mistakes#that's literally the entire premise of qualifying#who can put in the fastest lap with the least mistakes#yesterday it wasn't max#and i get that that is upsetting to many after 2 years of near perfection by him#but stop negating the accomplishments of others#while you mourn the loss of the perceived perfection you bestowed upon someone who is only human#max is happy for his friend#why can't you be?#lando norris#max verstappen#formula one#formula 1#f1#miami gp 2024

being part of dog health fb groups is great because it really broadens your horizons and gives a lot of context across breeds and teaches a lot of nuance in interpretation
and sometimes it lets you go 'holy heck im not in your breed but if i were i wouldnt touch ur programme w a 10 foot pole and a kite'
#hear me out bitch born in jan 21#1t litter in dec 22 and another in aug 23 - so back to back cycles totalling 8 puppies#THEN at age 3 xrays hips and the balls not in the gd socket and theres pronounced calcification and deterioration#like great job ma'am. if your dog had a chance at a normal qol you took it away.#population wide screening for HD is important for the sake of your lines future but maybe even more pertinently#breeding a female with moderate+ hips is NOT UNLIKELY to cause irreversible damage to those joints#you se a LOT of bitches suddenly get hip screened after their 1st or 2nd litter because#the added weight and physicall toll from having puppies (including muscle loss) suddenly makes them symptomatic#and then you can't take that back. the puppies may or may not be better off than their mother - hips are complicates - but the die is cast

TW vent abt some ableist shit i got hit with today (maybe?) i need advice
This is a genuine question to every disabled person on this app cause idk if i'm the one going insane, but basically i was sitting at lunch with some friends today, and this other girl i didn't know (jessica for the sake of online privacy) started talking to me.
Then she pointed out my hearing aids (signa, they're pretty discrete but are visible) and asked about them.
So i explained my disease and my nervous damage and whatnot... (i'm hard of hearing, as in 80% loss in my left ear, 70% in the other)
She then told me she related to me, and for a second i genuinely thought she was either deaf or hoh... BITCH I WAS SO WRONG
She told me that during this summer she went scuba diving and water got stuck behind her eardrum. (she has no issues now, she recovered 100%)
So she knew how i felt, she then went on a tangent about how hard it is to lose your hearing.
???
Is it wrong that this pisses me off??? Like you can't relate to me?? You barely understand what it's like to lose you hearing.
So uh yeah, this feels so weird to say to someone who's disabled, like idk, to me it feels like telling someone who's lost a leg that you relate to them bc you broke your leg.
Yeah anyways, am i being dramatic? Cause i feel like i'm justified but it could be coming from a nice place?

We all know that Steve and Robin are both fluent in Italian and Robin learns ASL and then teaches Steve so they have two secret languages to gossip and talk crap in.
But what about the fact that Argyle, who can’t keep a secret to save his life, is fluent in Spanish so he can understand the general idea of what they say in Italian? And what about Dustin and Will who are both passable in ASL and are teaching the other Party members at an impressive rate?
Obviously Robin and Steve are thrilled at these developments, but they need a way to communicate just between the two of them (as all best friends do). How are they going to talk about hot girls in front of the others? How are they supposed to commentate on relationship drama in the group in real time? (Does Mike know he’s in love with Will yet? No, but I think Max and El are beginning to suspect.) How are they supposed to keep Operation Fettuccine a secret until the big reveal? (They throw a going away party for themselves but they don’t tell anyone why until the very end of the night. They explain that they’re going to Italy for the summer and then run out the door into Steve’s already packed car before anyone can ask any questions.)
The solution, my friends, is so simple and yet, so brilliant. Together, Steve and Robin learn Italian Sign Language

apropos of very little:
about six months ago i woke up one morning with hearing loss in my left ear. i only recently learned that it's permanent (i erroneously assumed it was a temporary situation related to some inflammation i've been dealing with in my ear canals) but it's so weird to think about how suddenly it happened. obviously i knew that disability can absolutely happen that quickly, and obviously i was already disabled in other ways, but it's still weird! i went to sleep with "normal" hearing and woke up the next morning with one good ear and one bad ear, and that's just how it's going to be for the rest of my life. bizarre.

so one of my skills in life is that i test very well, largely because of pattern recognition, and i realized today that it’s pretty detrimental to the medical evaluation process. i basically scored perfect on a hearing test today that ruled out some diagnoses, and i am only now going back over the process in my mind and realizing that i didn’t actually hear a bunch of stuff i said i did, i just knew the right answer because the pattern of words and beeps was a consistent speed and pattern and they told me in advance what words they were going to use so like? yeah?? of course i knew when to raise my hand and could figure out what word you were saying? anyway i got an A in hearing which is normal to want yet perhaps detrimental to achieve.
and i can’t really call them and go “sorry i think i outsmarted your test, like a dumbass” so if i notice my hearing getting worse i’ll call them back and get re-tested, and bring someone with me to be like “your goal is not to pass the test. repeat after me. your goal is not to pass the test.”
#i just like to ✨ impress people ✨ by getting all the answers right#and i can’t seem to turn that part of my personality off. fuck me. anyway#i havé à bunch of people in my life with hearing loss tho so i know that my hearing IS pretty good#and none of the stuff they discounted based on the test had cures anyway soooo no big loss#this poor woman like yeah tinnitus can be caused by literally anything and there’s nothing you can do about it#it might seem to go away but it’ll definitely come back and will continue to suck even though we don’t know what caused it. sorry#try not to stab yourself in the ear i guess#what a professional specialty to have man i feel for her#the symptoms
