Doe 07/14/22 5:59:27 PM #1:	80/80 Being honest, if I got superpowers, I'm pretty sure I would hide them, and use them furtively and primarily for my own gain. Not just a secret identity but more like "nobody is aware a person with this ability exists". This goes for supervillains too actually, it's always you get powers and then decide to either attack a city or defend a city from the villains who got powers. --- https://imgur.com/gallery/dXDmJHw https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=75GL-BYZFfY <cite>Doe posted [p:966576902] in How come i...
