Would you take a cheap and effective once-a-day anti-aging pill? What if it were a suppository? (lemmy.ca)

You can assume that for every day you take the pill you don't age that day - if you skip it for a day you age by a day.

Yes. Is the drug harvested from the brains of hyper intelligent whales from another planet? If so, then hell yes.

Wasn't that the plot of avatar (the movie) or something?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Lol yes

The new Avatar, Way of the Water. It wasn't the whole plot, but it was a big part of it.

What if you take two?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

No more effect than taking one - otherwise some people might opt to make it a once a week thing and then the question is less interesting.

To be fair, it's already pretty uninteresting.

Jokes on you, I'm into that.

Will it be simply cosmetic event or would it involve preserving the integrety of your internal organs?

If it's the second: welcome to Groundhog Day, except the rest of the world moves and you stay still.

Without hesitation.

If I take 2 a day could I go back in time?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

No. I guess the idea with the question is more around how often you'd take the pill. People can extend their lifetimes already by exercising and eating healthy, but how often do they keep that habit every day. If the pill only worked for one day at a time, how often do you think you'd skip taking it because you'd only age one day and you had a really busy day?
