"I do cocain."
Immortality sounds miserable. I'd rather live out a semi-fulfilling life and be satisfied with what I've accomplished by the time my end comes, than to live knowing that nothing is going to matter since eventually I will be the last person standing no matter what happens. Even if we assume that physically I would be a-okay due to immortality, my mental state would be something else. Loneliness does crazy things to the human mind. And not being able to end it would be eternal suffering.Achromalia wrote:

yeah, I don't think any of it would be fun. and what about the possibility that you can feel every bit of pain a normal human would out in space, experiencing many of the similar effects humans would put up with, and yet, never die because of that? it'd be fucking painful. I don't want to imagine what it'd feel like being compressed and basically disintegrated by a black hole, while somehow able to experience every bit of it despite the ridiculous lack of physicality that allows that very consciousness to process through my senses. it'd be... pretty fucking unpleasant, to say the least.Penguin Sanchez wrote:
