      This is why I’m against anti aging research. I can’t get over how bad it would be if anti-aging tech arrives. Only the wealthy and powerful could afford it.

        Depends on the flavor of the research. I’m all for still dying in my 70s but also am for being relatively fuckable until the very end.

          This is referred to as healthspan or HALE and has been gaining research interest in recent decades.

          No anti-aging drugs and surgery can replace a healthy lifestyle with enough sleep, a balanced diet, abstaining from smoking, alcohol or other drugs and regular exercise.

      My man. I’ve been doing that since I was 5 years old. It is a fucking TRAVESTY that even living in 2010 during the nostolgia orgins era, PeeWee Herman never got redemption in getting his show return to CBS. Although to be fair, by the time 2010 rolled around the whole concept of Saturday morning cartoons was dead. So it would be kind of weird to sandwich PeeWee’s Playhouse between CBS morning news and Meet the Press.

      Still though…
