So according to the link you provided, and I didn't see the pencil and paper thing,Pen/pencil and paper is the ADA compliance guideline for the hearing impaired. Improvise, adapt, and overcome. Points for hyperbole though. Honestly, it was a good counterpoint to masks until I googled it.

So according to the link you provided, and I didn't see the pencil and paper thing,
For people who are deaf, have hearing loss, or are deaf-blind, this includes providing a qualified notetaker; a qualified sign language interpreter, oral interpreter, cued-speech interpreter, or tactile interpreter; real-time captioning; written materials; or a printed script of a stock speech (such as given on a museum or historic house tour). A “qualified” interpreter means someone who is able to interpret effectively, accurately, and impartially, both receptively (i.e., understanding what the person with the disability is saying) and expressively (i.e., having the skill needed to convey information back to that person) using any necessary specialized vocabulary.
In addition, aids and services include a wide variety of technologies including 1) assistive listening systems and devices; 2) open captioning, closed captioning, real-time captioning, and closed caption decoders and devices; 3) telephone handset amplifiers, hearing-aid compatible telephones, text telephones (TTYs) , videophones, captioned telephones, and other voice, text, and video-based telecommunications products; 4) videotext displays; 5) screen reader software, magnification software, and optical readers; 6) video description and secondary auditory programming (SAP) devices that pick up video-described audio feeds for television programs; 7) accessibility features in electronic documents and other electronic and information technology that is accessible (either independently or through assistive technology such as screen readers) .
Real-time captioning (also known as computer-assisted real-time transcription, or CART) is a service similar to court reporting in which a transcriber types what is being said at a meeting or event into a computer that projects the words onto a screen. This service, which can be provided on-site or remotely, is particularly useful for people who are deaf or have hearing loss but do not use sign language.
Your telling me that a restaurant server is going to provide any of this?
Its obvious that you don't understand the disability of hearing loss and the interaction that one with that disability has to endure in public.
How would your self esteem feel if after a two minute interaction with a server or a person at a check out counter with a mask on that you couldn't understand gave you a pencil and a piece of paper to express your conversation.
I know what my response would be if that happened.

Yep....
A lot of my understanding what others are saying comes by real time processing of reading lips mixed with what I’m actually hearing.
Anyone without significant hearing damage can’t begin to understand how frustrating it is even under the best of circumstances. Put on a mask and screw it, I’m done. The mask compounds the issue even further by muffling voices.
The truth hurts.
So do hookers charge more for no mask?
Way to go KRMG!If you'll recall, back when this Chinese Flu Panic started, I tried to call attention to the fact that hookers face danger and disease every day. Honoring Cops, nurses, aviation workers? Hell, those jobs are sissy stuff compared to what hookers face. KRMG raised damn near a half a million dollars for two shot cops yesterday...a hooker gets killed, nobody gives a crap.
Hookers - the real heroes in society. Providing services, facing danger, and not shooting your dog.
Oh - and screw your mask laws.
