People fixate over these tiny things, little differences in the arrangement of deck chairs, as they are dying of a medical condition called aging, that might be controlled and prevented entirely if enough of them stopped fixating on tiny things and started helping to fund rejuvenation therapies.

There are startup companies now, today, working on the first rejuvenation treatments that address one of the actual root causes of aging. Oisin Biotechnologies and UNITY Biotechnology. Look them up, look up the senescent cell clearance methodologies they are turning from labwork to clinical treatment. Yet what is in the news and the thing that people pay attention to? Tiny differences in the status quo, who has a better deck chair as the ship is going down.

It is a frustrating thing to be living in the human condition.
