Are you from USA, France or else?

I wouldn’t say that I am fully prepared, but to significant extent prepared that my physical body will die eventually. As a spiritually based person I believe that the real self is timeless and spaceless, so eternal, never entered the flow of time in the first place, so can’t die in the usual meaning. But to some extent, I am more terrified by such eternal existence than the prospect of entirety nonexisting…

But I prefer to die extremely old. I am not speaking about around one hundred. I mean at least several hundreds, preferably at least several thousands of years old. Really old! Medicine is not on such level yet, but progressing. The field of longevity / rejuvenation / aging-reversal / anti-aging is still criminally underfunded, what slows progress down, but it is going.

If also you want to make sure that most of humans can live to such world, where aging related diseases are gone, request your government to fund aging-reversal research and sign the https://dublinlongevitydeclaration.org/

Deja vu 🤔

Nice. Possible. But I like to imagine that someone woke up some morning and thought “I am going to name my child based on philosophy” 😎

Yeah, I much more prefer free, libre, open source software. Even just the gut feeling is much better for me 😊

Scholastika. Real name in Slovakia. I have never ever met anyone of that name. I am still waiting for brothers Nihilizmus and Solipsizmus.

In university I was into visual art, mostly drawing and photography. So I went to drawing class. At the end of semester the teacher proposed to us to be models for next semester and I took it. It was funny, just sitting or standing still for 2 hours 😁 Easy money.

Little less fun was when they was drawing nude body, so I was standing there in only my underwear 😅

And when they was drawing a caricature I asked them to draw me as a werewolf. One guy did and later donated his drawing to me. I still have it after all those years 😊

Because you have specifically mentioned buying textbooks, I assume you studied in USA. As an European I am still horrified by the textbook prices in USA. In my country I have even participated working group with government representative about how to make our textbook available under free, public license, like CC BY-SA. I wish you best 🤗

Slovakia: nothing.

When I was very young kid I have proposed to leave something for him but my family talked me out of it.

Same for humans, especially kids.

[email protected] and [email protected] for life-and-death matters. I really love life and want to live really long time 😎

35 still living with my mom. After university I lived abroad for some time but then get into serious crisis of meaning and was like a living zombie for 2-3 years. Then found a nonprofit organization for which I needed some serious work and time to put it on the ground (similar to starting a business, but with a different goal). Now it pays off, but I am into very serious saving for big thing for future, so rather stay here still. I also love my mom so I enjoy the family life.

By the way, there are several different types of “kid” toys 😅 https://mstdn.ca/@paulisci/115769767114526283

Basic answer is: at birth. Also, never. In fact, both of them. And no one. All of that is valid in the same time…

More complex answer is that nothing is objectively sad. What is “sad” and what is not is entirely human-made concept. And in order to be as close to truth as possible, it must be treated like that.

A bit better question would be something like “What is your current personal preference for X?”. That acknowledges that 1) we are dealing about subjective, rather objective affair, 2) or is not an eternal trait but a possibly temporary affair that can change after some time.

That way, different people, different cultures in space and time have different opinions. As long as we know that it is an intersubjective thing, it is OK. If some opinion can get you in trouble (like saying that some moons orbit around Jupiter), you may use that knowledge to survive. But otherwise, it is up to you how you live your life. They universe is providing a lot of possibilities and you can tap into its creativity and let universe manifest thru you. Please, enjoy it, it is great and I really want more people to cocreate the universe into its fullest. Eg. by building some new cool LEGO building 😊

I get inspired about this relativism point of view by the Integral theory of Ken Wilber, and by opinions of Leo Gura from Actualized.org 👇 https://youtu.be/UyBETFn5KXk

Ah, trying to save life of humans at large is not an easy business 😅

Test failed. Enjoy your life knowing that internet is not entirely dead.

Then you may consider requesting from your government to facilitate and fund research to develop real aging-reversal therapies. They will not be available next year, but with right focus they could be here in 10-20 years.
