Death is not bad - without it life makes no sense. Being 30 forever and immortal would be my definition of hell. Death is doing a great job, leave it alone.

Chugging 300 pills per day - you will still die.

It is inevitable.

It is sad that you are insécable of finding joy and meaning in life without death. Go touch some grass.

you are reading something into my comment that is not there - I was saying immortal life would be a meaningless existence and no panacea to the human condition. Trying to escape death is not only futile, it is a waste of life. You are right of course, we should all touch grass more (I.e. really live) instead of trying to "solve" the human condition.

You misunderstood me too. Go touch grass and see what is so great about living. Then I don’t think you can fairly say we should have less years to live.
