It’s a really common question, and the short answer is: not all deaf people find captions (subtitles) easy or natural to follow, especially if their first language is sign language like BSL (British Sign Language) rather than English.

Solastalgia by Swedish artist Tommy Mäkinen aka Vegan Flava @veganflava at Snösätra Graffiti Wall of Fame, Snösätragränd 1, 124 60 Bandhagen, Stockholm, Sweden in June 2025 as part of Spring Beast Festival 2025 @snosatra. Photos taken August 2025.

"Coined by the philosopher Glenn Albrecht in 2003 solastalgia emphasizes the psychological impact of environmental degradation. The deeper sense of unease and grief when one’s familiar environment is being altered or degraded over time or devastated in sudden disasters.
Sadly, this is something that more and more people are experiencing and will continue to increase. I came across the word several years ago and was deeply moved when I undertood the meaning of it and thought it is a very useful word. To have language in difficult times, written, spoken or a visual language through art is important." @veganflava Aug. 22, 2025

I'm glad that the tedious work of creating intentional #solarpunk visual language is paying off.
A popular Solarpunk Youtuber Andrewism used one of the very carefully crafted works of @the_lemonaut and Scan101 in his latest video!
Woop Woop it’s #FollowFriday again.
Follow @SocietyOfSigns if you are into #icons and #VisualLanguage.
I hope @samarskaya will stick around and convince the @typedirectors to post more.
Congratulations to 25 years of @typotheque.
There is a #GLUE related exhibition at @waag that looks really interesting.

I’ve got to finish something for #Typeknitting @rschloemer now.
Bye 👋
I feel like a lot of the #vispo, #concretePoetry and #visualLanguage folk I used to follow here may have headed over to threads. Anyone got any tips on finding/ following them from this side - I am seeing a few accounts of other folk that are set up so that they can be followed here.
