gollark: But I think you underestimate the range of available activities.

gollark: If they really get so bored that they don't want to live, they can die or something.

gollark: Obviously also abolish aging...

gollark: Death is actually quite bad. When you die, people are unhappy about it. When you die, you can no longer do interesting things.
