    Spend more time in nursing homes watching people rot to death. Or well less, honestly it is a bad scene. After the revolution ™️ we'll find some way to preserve people's dignity and quality of life as they age, not just the rich

      Yeah seriously, I have no idea what kind of idealistic world Assian_Candor lives in. It's not just the isolation that makes nursing homes sad. It's the actual physical state that those people are in. But oh well, trying to help them in their physical ailments won't be "as beautiful" or whatever

        They make a good point about gracefully accepting fate. That is important. However it would be more ideal if we could limit the amount of accepting decay you had to do at any one time.

            Exactly! Accept what you cannot change, but change what you can.

            Unless it interferes with "beauty." In that case fuck changing what you can. 🙃

              I think finding beauty in it is how they accept it, and maybe they personally need to accept it.

              But if we all thought that way we’d never fix this shit!
