I don't think evolution is completely consistent, but there's a red line

that is true

an organism cannot go back to the drawing back it must work with what it has

for example our eyes are better suited to under water vision

PoMo's often say there isn't a consistent line of growth

they were originally made to see under water and have been modified over the years to see on dry land

@Shrimpf how many weedies are you on right about now?

Death is the primary enemy to the survival instinct. Very basic shit.

I did smoke weed for my IBS

But it barely affects me because I only dose for pain

@lgmdigm if you also look at it, it is the most scary thing we can imagine

@johnfrum#8811 you can think about it but I read somewhere there's a mechanism that normally shuts you down from thinking about death too much

or distracts you

with other fears there's a chance of fighting back or hiding but with death there's nothing you can do

I usually think about cancer

It runs in the family

damn

if people didn't have that mechanism society wouldn't work

Well there's probably a mechanism for a lot of chains of thought not creating a feedback loop.

you better run faster @Shrimpf

we'd all be thinking about what's coming constantly

Not death only

I work out and dont eat sugar

Dont smoke

Dont drink

do you inject your daily dose of nanomachines

Im obsessed with my health

Kek

I got several chemicals checked, vitamin levels, test levels, etc

you know once we learn to regenerate the tolomerase there will be new problems for immortal huamns

Damn

because not everything in our body is everlasting

like our teeth

tfw don't smoke, don't drink, don't work out, and use caffeine tablets in place of coffee

help

they don't regrow

Your eyes too

you could replace some shit with machines

Death is something that was evolved so that resources could not be wholly consumed, but at the same time, you must live long enough to create offspring. That's why there's a fear of death. Sure, you can fear heights, injury, animals, etc., but those are all just portals to the pinnacle.
