Given the technologies in the pipeline the estimated timeframes for longevity are very modest at least compared to those working in the field of biotechnology and nanotechnology

Why Not Now for example when do you think that rejuvenation therapies might come? I heard SENS was going to do the trials in 2021

I'm working with people between 70 and 90 years old and I can say: don't let me grow old. 8 out of 10 need diapers and assistance. That's no lifestyle, it's a Desaster. And all this fancy tool what you are talking about are only for people, who can effort this. What's with the poor guys? Even today, more and more people in the age of 65+ have to work, because the pension is to small for surviving

I want to live untill then but not with an old body and no I don't want immortality, because death makes space for our kids and new life on earth but getting weak and wrinkly over time is sad.

Little bs there about isolation, I’ve never heard of anyone dying bc they weren’t social enough guy sounded nutty to me

Actually, social isolation and lack of social connectedness has been linked to mortality risk. Humans are social creatures - that doesn't change with age.

The21stGrade for some reason “we’re social creatures” means literally nothing to me. Maybe that sounds like a solid scientific data set to you, for me it a completely meaningless useless phrase. For one thing, it’s not even the least bit objective, and what does “social” even mean ? Surely a pet, social media, sometimes even a plant would cause the same chemical reaction in our brains. Now, obviously you will have to go to say, a doctor so I guess that’s some human interaction. To help organize your thoughts many ppl do find it very helpful to bounce ideas off of others or even just simple conversation. There are work around for this though and to stand on stage and say something to the effect that the less number of friends you have, the sooner you die is just silly

Life is not OK. The best thing you can do is to tell the truth. All of your asumptions are based on the unnatural denial of death or the natural fluctuations of life.
