The boomers are dying. Life expectancy is 76 years in the US. Which reminds me, that middle-age is actually 38. I'm halfway done with my life. Yikes!

Yikes!
- somenameforme 3y agoThe way I look at it is that I was, in hindsight, barely sentient for the first ~25 years, so that means we've only really gotten to live for 10-20 years!
- jessekv 3y agoI like this argument, I just wonder if the bar rises over time. Do you think that in 5 years you will say you were barely sentient for the first ~30 years?
- somenameforme 3y agoI've also wondered the exact same thing. Suppose we'll see!
- moomoo11 3y agoIt does make me sad sometimes. But I find great comfort knowing we were all along for the journey together. Whether we knew each other or not, I’m glad to have shared this space time with you and others. We are here because of those before us. Those after us will be there because of us. Good stuff.
