the quest for immortality is epistemically analogous to the contemporary quest to discover alien life imo: it totally isn't working, but the plausibility that it COULD is soo built into our basic presuppositions abt the way the world works tht we wld have to change our lives totally to give it up

Estou jogando immortality e é um dos negócios mais absurdos q já joguei, muito foda

I take comfort in the fact that there is one thing that the billionaires really want but cannot buy: IMMORTALITY

Great joke! Vampires are my favorite though, because it’s about grappling with immortality, why it’s no picnic, and the monster it would make you.

I feel like the main downside of immortality would be an eternity of pooping.

i think it is entirely reasonable and fair to note that an extraordinarily wealthy man who spends millions a year on *his own* attempt at immortality and so *little* on philanthropy with more effective outcomes for humanity has reaped his share of scorn

To me the whole thing smacks of the habit of Chinese emperors poisoning themselves ingesting mercury in pursuit of immortality

When Christopher Lambert took on the role for Highlander the key theme he wanted to focus on was the loneliness that would come with immortality. An eternity to love and lose should encourage us to make the most of life, not cling to it like Scrooge.
