you're still missing out on literally every other aspect of the music. It's simply not a suitable form of entertainment for someone in her position

Deaf people can and do enjoy music. This is a really uninformed statement lol.

How? Do they feel the vibrations or something? What do you think her favorite song is? Massage chair?


You seem to have overlooked that that was a RebelElite791 post.

My daughters are deaf. Can confirm that they enjoy music, just like many other teens. So no, rebel is spot on.


How do they enjoy music, though? Honestly not trying to be a dick. I would imagine they would have a deeper love for lyrics than most, like poetry.

An article was posted earlier but basically they can feel the vibrations.

Literally all that would change if they didn't do this is you'd be able to watch their old stuff for free, and make money selling their old products. Disney is just making sure they're able to sell properties they made and nobody else, which is fine.

What bathroom should a biological male who has a penis but is trying to appear to be a woman go into?

The questions that plague our nation...

Honestly I think the answer is that if you're 'something in between' male and female, you should go into the men's restroom, because men don't really give a shit who is in their bathroom, while women do care.

Too bad it's about the comfort of the trans individual. Bigoted discomfort gets no consideration.

Seconding Dead Cells. I just started playing it and I'm enjoying it a lot. It's similar to Rogue Legacy but heavier focus on combat and less on platforming.

Still early access, though. Fun enough now, but itd be better to wait.

Like I said,look past the early access for it. It's one of the best gaming experiences you'll find right now, and it's current state can easily offer dark souls levels of gameplay and replay value.

You don't have to but yeah you can tear them up if they have the symbol on them since they are otherwise removed from the game forever. The host of the game insisted on tearing them so we do.

Yeesh no! There are very few that are gone forever, and you might wanna play again. Wtf!

Other than having no real option for legal immigration, of course. For him to become a legal resident he'd have to leave the country and abandon his life completely. Not really feasible.

Is it? I don't remember it, but it's been a bit.


Yes. Ranette's Coinshot and Lurcher Hazekiller rounds work similar to the trick. They are made of ceramic but have pieces of metal on them, you can push or pull. Coinshots or Lurcher push or pull the metal but the ceramic part is still deadly.

Ooooh that's right!

Only two other things I question are super nitpicky. One is that it's always described that iron and steel give you a single line towards an object, but towards the end Kelsier displays an ability to push and pull on specific parts of an object. Is this ever shown elsewhere, and how is it done exactly?

The other is that Vin throws out a bunch of pewter dust to blind steel inquisitors with all the blue lines from iron and steel. Is this just possible because they're stronger allomantically, or does it effect everyone, and is there a limit to the size of what your iron pushing and steel pulling effects? Couldn't people just detect vials of metals at that point? Especially Atium?

It doesn't matter if it's real or not. Anything they're using to intimidate and threaten is a weapon, and makes the incident more traumatic. It's armed robbery.
