Is anyone else terrified of aging?Even Trump who was so energetic and lively 10 years ago can barely debate or move around now.
>>84401970if I get too old I would just die via suicide by cop I think
>>84401970Yeah I think I'm going to KYS myself sometime around 35-40. I envy people who died in childhood/teen years. Old age really isn't worth it to me.
>>84401970Suicide at mid 60, around the same age hunter s Thompson killed himself, im caring for an elderly woman that everyone hated when she was young, and i would rather die than become as pathetic as her
>>84401970anon, i'll humour you this time. if getting older mean losing all your friends and getting no attention except from your family, yes i am terrified of aging
>>84401970I am afraid of it yes. I just do not see myself as an old man. I never wanted a family so will never habe the dad/grandpa thing to lean on. Also since I never really had expirienced with women I am afraid that I will be the type of grandpa that is a creep because he still falls for 18 year old girls for example. I cannot imagine ever not finding young girls attractive. Even 40 year old women seem ancient to my childish brain. Also am afraid of running out of time, still too many books I wanna read.
>>84401970"Even the most beautiful body is soon destroyed by age. Where is beauty then? Only art makes human beauty endure. You must devise an artist's scheme to preserve it. You must commit suicide at the height of your beauty."
>>84402589Ok but that's not the reason he commited sudoku. He did it because he wildly overestimated his influence and capacity to overthrow a government and the shame was too great.
>>84401970>Trump who was so energetic and lively 10 years ago can barely debate or move around now.Aging accelerates at key intervals. From 18 to 40 your physical health is pretty stable, but from 45 onward is generally the point at which senescence kicks in fully. Then once you hit 60, it becomes markedly faster, and anywhere between 65 to 75 can be the end of an average persons 'healthy' life, the point where cancers are most aggressive, neurodegenerative disorders appear, joints and connective tissues are heavily deteriorated. A general life expectancy of 79-82 gives only a few additional years that largely only benefits parasitic nursing homes that want to steal your house and pension. In this sense, trump going from 69 to 79 is indeed, an enormous leap in aging. It's the exact point where we expect to see a massive decline in health. For his weight he's already in his bonus years, if he wasn't filthy rich he'd probably already be dead.
>>84401970Why would I be "terrified" of something that's going to happen no matter what I do? Are you retarded? What's the point of shitting my pants in fear over something inevitable? Complete waste of energy, if you ask me.
>>84401970Absolutely not. Aging and dieing are inevitable. They people who trust the soi-ince try all kinds of unnatural things to prolong their lives because they don't have faith in God and an afterlife. Their schemes may prolong their life a little, but it becomes a miserable exist both in this life and the next.I care more about quality of years rather than quantity. On the other hand, I could drop dead tomorrow and even if I knew the exact time, I wouldn't care.
>>84402690>He did it because he wildly overestimated his influence and capacity to overthrow a government and the shame was too great.Not that anon but that quote about beauty IS literally why he did it.You really think that he thought he was gonna overthrow the government with 4 other dudes? Not only that but after his death , letters and other writings of Mishima were found where he just straight up says that he knows its not gonna work and its not really meant to work. Not only that but his work features characters that die or engage in destructive behavior for goals that they know they won't be able to achieve because they're really chasing something else. Mishima was obsessed with beauty and death since an early age. He describes his first ejaculation being to a painting of saint Sebastian dying. He also talks about how it would be silly to die with a flabby, frail body, which is probably one of the reasons why he got buff.
