I don't want to die, but living forever sounds exhausting.
if you don't want to die now, and you don't want to live forever, is there some specific age/time you would like to die, if you didn't have to?
It's an interesting question.
After thinking over it briefly, I believe I'd like to die when I'm ready to die. I can't declare in advance when that would be age- or time-wise and I can't even necessarily define the conditions that would make me feel ready, as I've never yet felt ready to die.
Right now, I have a little kid and a decent quality of life. I don't want to die until my kid can be on their own and I don't think I'd want to live after my quality of life declined past a certain point though, again, I can't say yet what that point would be.
I'm sorry, I know this is an unsatisfactory answer, but it's the best I have at the moment. I'll try to pontificate on the matter and get back to you if I come up with anything better.
do you want your kid to die someday as well? what if your quality of life didn't have to become bad? immortalists such as myself (that is, people who don't want people to have to die, and support scientific efforts to make that a reality) don't want people to just, like, persist in a state of unending geriatric decrepitude, we want folks to be able to live as long and healthy lives as possible.
