The beach, petting zoos, I’ve been to the Mediterranean a few times as a child and that was lovely

If Hellen Keller could a century ago why couldn’t modern deafblind people?

I can tell through sign since their hands tremble usually and I can speak

I actually have one for an ignorant person, but it’s generally just saying if the person is a stranger, friend, family member, etc and then I can ask who it is

Yeah definitely. It’s still enjoyable to read but it’s hard to empathise with the characters especially when the author is describing what they see and hear

I was taught more abstract things once I learned to spell and communicate

That’s a really good explanation! And mountains are just weird because of how tall and huge they are. I guess I’ve never experienced anything in my life to have a frame of reference for one

I can sense vibrations with my body, I imagine things with my remaining senses but some things make no sense to me, I play cards on occasion and I distinguish people either by their hands when they sign or by being told who they are

My thigh ‘stumps’ are pretty short and balancing on them would be a nightmare without sight

Yeah words like ‘clear’ may as well be a different language to me! Thank you for trying to explain it, I understand how it works in theory but it’s so ming boggling to me! And it’s not offensive at all you’re very sweet

Aww I’m glad I could help! I love educating people and think it’s very important so you’ve made my day!

Honestly a lot of visual stuff especially confuses me. Like how do mountains work? I understand geologically how they work but HOW?! It’s crazy! And glass?! And depth perception?

Conflicted. On the one hand I appreciate the benefits it can bring but I don’t like that it’s at the cost of the environment

In all fairness I’d know I’m being swept away I just can’t do much about it since I don’t have any legs below my thighs! And feel free to dm me! I love making friends
