So let's say like, you know, you cheated on someone or like you were like mean to someone or you were really bad to someone.

And now you're living up to 250 years.

Do you want to live with that resentment till that age?

Well, maybe that'll be an incentive to behave better since you have to live with it longer.

Right?

But like, just imagine, right?

Like you had only like, let's say like you're 55 and you did something at the age 50 and like, you know, that's like, God forbid, let's say like, you know, your use like end of life was 70 now extended to 250.

You just had that period of resentment for 15.

Now it turned into 200 and 200 odd years.

Well, maybe that's the new justice.

But these are the stakes.

These are the stakes.

And also don't forget that culture adapts as well.

So thinking about psychological support through psychedelics, or it might have been your local community that discuss these things, or 12-step programs, that you would have to have a cultural context that adapted to longevity in such a way that you find a way to restore some kind of homostatic balance.

Or that you carry these...

you carry these things with you and then that's a way for you to remember not to do these things in the future.

So if you said a sharp word or cruel to someone when you're like 20 or 21, I can remember specific conversations I've had that I wish I had been more thoughtful before I spoke.

And if you're lucky, you remember them.

So you're saying that live to 250 years but don't screw up and you have to repent longer.

There's a human equation.
