That was actually explored in https://xkcd.com/505/ but with rocks instead of paper. Also "Ship of Theseus".
My take on it, is that my consciousness is not the one I was born with, or the one I had a few years ago -- instead, it just thinks it is that same one, but the only link to previous versions is just memories.
