gollark: Any predictions about stuff "tens of thousands of years" in the future seem to me like they'll be wildly inaccurate.
gollark: Biotechnology is improving.
gollark: Not necessarily!
gollark: So, if things are bad, delude yourself into thinking it's fine?
gollark: And you cannot, in fact, do the same thing as everyone else if you have some thing stopping you doing the same thing as everyone else, that's... definitionally the case.
