I cannot fucking wait for hearing loss to be something we completely, 100% tackle. I want to listen to LOUD ass music, ALL DAY, EVERY DAY, but if I do, I'll lose the ability to hear it.

So I'm currently trying to figure out if this product that straps bass-speakers to your chest might help my obsession. :D

You might be forgetting that as you lose your hearing, you just get to listen to music LOUDER and LOUDER.

I feel like a device like that may have the potential to interfere with the rhythm of your heart

Fuck it give me a new heart too.

i want my heart to make mechanical piston noises

That seems like a wild assumption to make. The heart beat is regulated by electric pulses, i dont see why a thumping bass would have any effect on it
