a new drug comes out that gives you effective immortality for as long as you take it. You don't age, you never grow frail, you stay sparky and young and enthusiastic for as long as you want.
but it also permanently freezes your emotional and intellectual age. You never learn anything, you never get better at relationships, you never grow as a person.
@bri7 I don't want to stay sparky, I want to age gracefully

@bri7 id take it every other day, or every third day, i can can form a habit of noting my feelings on days i take it and then read it back to process on days i dont, so i theory ill age at half or a third gur rate
oh, and all throughout winter (this way i could sleep through gur whole thing)

@bri7
Give me that stuff. All of it. Including all information of how to make it. Then I hope it burns well.
Because I sort of feel this would end this game we call "earth" much faster and in very nasty ways.
By the way, could that stuff keep people alive even if they get beheaded, burnt, shot, starved, deprived of water and the like? It would be terrible if it did and equally terrible if it didn't, but might change the colors of the nastiness that would end the planet. -

@bri7 "You never learn anything" So it results in brain death? That's called a lethal poison.
Learning things is how a mind operates, every experience, every moment of existence leaves an imprint. You can't do away with that and remain a person, at best you'll be a kind of zombie.

@bri7@social.treehouse.systems I'll take it once I've grown as a person and settled into a long lasting relationship then.

@bri7
Yes, and it would be an easy choice for me because I'm already old and set in my ways. When I was 30, it might have been a tough decision. -

@bri7 as a story promt: at some point in the future the last one of initial enthusiasts stopped taking this drug

@bri7 A life without learning and improving is not a life at all

@bri7 Oh no... like an inverse Groundhog Day timeloop where you learn nothing and the rest of the world moves on without you while you're stuck in the same day forever. Shit, is this a lotus-eater situation?
