hi Max! i'm registered sight impaired and i'm on a waiting list for o&m. when i signed up i was upfront that i would probably only use a long cane in some situations and not be a full time user, it was no problem! no one has told me that in order to get o&m i have to need it all the time. so if you still feel like you need professional o&m, i'd definitely try

for a while i identified as genderqueer over nonbinary too, but it didn't really feel specific enough, because it also includes gender roles and expression, it can also include cis or binary trans people, so i kinda moved away from it. i do call myself queer though in terms of gender. like queer as a gender the same way male or female are genders, not just how i relate to my gender is queer. technically genderqueer still fits but i'm the kinda person who needs a bit of specificity, and nonbinary is specifically only about gender and not really about gender roles or expression, so doesn't include cis or binary trans people. for myself, i wanted something that specifically says that my gender is outside of the binary, which i know is how many people use the term genderqueer too, but many others use it way broader. i love the term queer, and i hate the acronym LGBTQ+, to be quite honest. i've heard many people say that genderqueer is just synonymous with trans which is also just eh. i know it's not that but even then, i want to be clear about what kind of trans i am

Hi Ouch Mouse, good video. The instruction book that came with my Phonak Nathos Micro hearing aids suggests you should take the dome off when you clean the tube.

Thanks for this Max 💖

Hi Ouch Mouse, Your video was very good and granted, most still wear them for medical and other personal reasons, nearly all of us decided never to wear them again but will always have them handy

It makes me feel so much more confident seeing someone without profound hearing loss being called deaf , I really prefer deaf and prefer using sign , my sister has the same hearing loss as me in th same pattern , this is genetic mutations , she prefers hearing impaired , Thankyou for this it explains everything i always say , i am classed as moderate-severe btw

You're a woman, girl, female. Unfortunately this is not something you get to pick and choose.

Do you think you can do a room tour? Love your videos btw

You either a man or a woman. Deal with it.

Sweet potato rice for poster= Just like a spiralizer there's a ricer... Would save you a lot of time with that cauliflower also

Wow, that's an impressive collective of China plates and other silverware. Also hi Ouch Mouse and how are you?

Makes sense to me! For me, it's nonbinary - agender. 😸

Watching this video as I blow dry my body off after a HOT bath 😅 I have chronic cold and aquagenic urticaria. Thanks for the upload

Thank you so much for this video - I am a college student traveling abroad to where they recognize these lanyards and I didn’t know where to start, what information to include, etc. I am multiply disabled and also have POTS and other conditions like ARFID that I’ve seen your channel discuss and I was very glad to see a video from someone who shares many of my experiences. I am also trans and pagan (I saw some of your other videos referencing trans and pagan topics so I hope it’s okay to assume) thank you again for the information and sharing your experience.

I always knew some of the rules but not the additional ones :)

Very Useful ouch Mouse, thought easier said than done with other people world wide

thank you for sharing your experiences and feelings around this!! yes i think a night blindness video on its own would be great 🤝💚

The Celt's were a warrior culture by nature. They were not peaceful in any way to their enemies and in fact, much of what I've found even dictates the proper ways to wage war and the rules of engagement when stealing each others cattle. War games were huge during festivals. They put just as much stock put into psychological warfare which is why bandying words is to this day so prevalent in those areas. Most importantly, the ideals dictate what a warrior should be doing during times of peace, crafting, doing art, writing poetry. The Druids had a great deal of love and respect for stories and songs which is why bards were held in such high regard. It's difficult to find a lot of info on the druids because their culture dictated that they should not write anything down, believing instead in the power of the spoken word. There is no shame in being a fighter. It's something to be proud of. Food for thought. In your path to peace, don't forget the warriors that protected their people.

How long did it take to feel better after stopping ami

I'm one of those who only unveil for ritual, as a sign of vulnerability to the gods I Revere. Thank you for this video! It's good to feel less alone

This his very close to home for me!! I have not heard of anyone else who has struggled with this, so thank you for sharing your story!

So relatable! You should be proud! I'm sure it was terrifying. But it's wonderful to gain a new food after being scared of it! A whole new world opens sometimes!

Thank you so much Max!!! This was so informative!!! I’m currently considering using a long cane for when my light sensitivity and migraines are particularly bad and affecting my navigation, but I’ve been worried people won’t think I’m “visually impaired enough” because I can use a phone and drive, etc. thank you for answering my request for this video! 😄

Hi Ouch Mouse, I never knew that about you but you are getting around the world to the very best possible :)

Im on it as well helps me relax and not feel so stressed and pain my back and legs mine is 50mg tab ❤ edit i forget to add like all meds goings on or off has issues so please be aware

Thats a load of crap...you're clearly American looking

Thanks for the explanation. 20+ years ago when I transitioned MtF, the term non-binary label wasn't in use that I was aware of. But we had people who either couldn't get approved for HRT or simply who didn't want to. So how this would play out for us in SoCal was us binary MTF and FtM folk would have a support group meeting where we talked about transition, hormones, passing, challenges with the whole transition process and then AFTER the support group meeting we'd go to Sherry's for pie and salad and that's when the gender queers would show up to hang out for that part of the night. Gender queer was just a catch all for anyone gender non-conforming that would hang with us. We had some different labels for the few we knew that hung out. Gender rebels and gender outlaws were VERY intentionally non conforming. They had very gendered presentation, but you never knew how they'd look exactly. Kinda playing with gender. No idea what such a person would be called today. Bigender was the same as today. But I never heard this idea of mixing up pronouns and alternating. They kinda were like part timers. Conform all the way one way in one group, then all the way the other way in another scenario. Not sure if I ever really knew any real bigender, because the person who was bigender I knew ended up identifying as MTF, she just couldn't dress en femme at home because of family. Androgenes would be called agender today. Exact same thing. Tend to be androgenous and like it that way. There were others I'm sure, and this was just a tiny handful of people that were friends with us transsexuals (the word we used at the time for us), so take with a grain of salt. The gender queers were basically just friends of ours that hung out when we talked about random stuff like pie, movies, music, or whatever. I'm sure there were plenty of other gender queers out there in both queer spaces and not, but that's my grand experience with such people in the days before social media was invented.

I started watching and then I saw your intro where you were outdoors in the beautiful daylight and saw you wearing a mask, THEN I checked out.

I think you were great explaining it

Promo sm

You could try vegetarian sushi that has veggies instead of fish! I love sweet potatoes, mushrooms, or Avocado in sushi rolls!

This sounds like a cool job! May I ask why you quit? I hope your next steps make you happy <3

I'd say an absolute head wrecker

Im allergic to rice and potatoes. Such a horrible combo. Thank you for this video

Outstanding 😎 very informative.

It’s been some years that KZfaq stoped showing this type of videos when searching for them. I enjoyed hearing your experience.

🎉

Wither awueer or non bunary,if you want get married you become the man or is ti different in this direction,what about musculin???

As a hearing impaired pagan who wants to veil the info on the hearing aid issue was very helpful ❤️

it's so cool you're back! i was subbed to you from an old account and saw you weren't active when i had a new one but i recently binged a whole lot of your videos and i'm so ready for more.

Hey, I was just thinking about you a few weeks ago. Welcome back :)

Hey, good to see you again. I've been subbed for a long time, but your channel hasn't been recommended. I guessed that you weren't making videos. Well, glad you are back. Missed you.

Ah yes doctors, always the ones listening… mine is still gaslighting me lol. Anyways, excited for your next videos!

Hi beautiful max 🐁 happy new year! I hope you got the gifts from your wish list! Am glad your finding time for you! I just watched your drag king video you looked sexy as hell,I was pleased your still trying to use your hearing aids! And you have gone from using a symbol cane to a long cane with a roller tip! I expect your sight is worse in the winter when it rains! We all know deafblind is a spectrum! I went to st Thomas hospital in London for a CI assessment but the beep test showed I only had residual hearing left but the inner test showed the cochlear hairs working so why I can't I hear I will find out this year! I have started to rely on my white cane more,I used it in London as my sight was bad & struggled to read station maps,I also have had to start diabetes injections so like you I have had quite a year! I finally got the medical people to email & not ring as I rarely use a phone at the moment! So please keep using your long cane & hearing aids as like me your deafblind well that's what my records show! Hope to catch up with you soon am glad you have time for the charity sense! I know when my hearing & sight are at their worst that's when I feel so scared & alone! ♥️♥️♥️

When I broke my leg I just sat on the floor but yeah the chair is nice though

I've just recently gotten into druidry myself and I've heard lots of opinions on druidry as a whole. People say you need to follow or practice certain things to be a druid. You have to be pagan, worship celtic gods, have an enormous amount of knowledge and wisdom in order to call yourself a druid. I personally feel that druidry is being in tune and one with nature. Respecting, Loving and caring for it. Raising your own spiritual awareness and bonding with nature. What are your thoughts on this?

Rib pain sounds like Costochondritis! I used the Back Pod for a few weeks everyday and its gone!

"it's not reserved for the worst of the worst" not deafblind just blind but this is something i had to learn because so much of blind stuff hinges on legal definitions. i'm not legally blind but registered sight impaired and i had to learn to embrace the blind label anyway because that's what gives me community. and that community taught me that blindness is so much more than legal definitions, it DOES include people on the milder end of visual impairment, it DOES include visual processing issues like CVI. blindness like deafness isn't for the most severe cases and you said it so well.

I have been a Witch for years and if Wicca is not your path so be it, you find what makes you happy and is something you're comfortable with.

Thank you so much for this video I have had a cane for years and years and never felt like I was impaired enough to be “allowed” to use it until I moved to big city and waiting for public bus is anxiety inducing! I can’t read what bus is passing by and I have to wave them down to ask which route they are taking and then the drivers get so mad when I tell them I am looking for a different bus!!! This video has changed my life and given me so much more confidence in using my cane 🦯THANK YOU!!
