I didn’t bother to read the article until you sent out the thread, but as a pragmatist with a maximum future of maybe 20 years, am I likely to be hurt physically, emotionally, sexually or fiscally by this phenomenon?
If not, screw it.
...The heart-ache and the thousand natural shocks
That flesh is heir to, ‘tis a consummation
Devoutly to be wish’d. To die, to sleep;
To sleep: perchance to dream: ay, there’s the rub;
For in that sleep of death what dreams may come
When we have shuffled off this mortal coil,
Must give us pause...
