mazzi Chart Czar posted:The most significant change to our current world is dealing with old people. The human life span before world war II was: dead at birth, dead before 10, or dead around 55. This is not true. In the past 100 years the life expectancy of a 65yo has increased about 5 years. Life expectancy of a 1yo has increased around 15 years. The 25 year increase is a lie conservatives tell so they don't have to pay tax dollars for elder care. All those old people are supposed to be dead, it's nature's way!

Nah, rich old people have always lived forever and you had a better chance of reaching 70 or 80 than you'd think as a poor (as long as you made it to 12 first) because high child mortality skewed the numbers. If you think the world is stagnant because there's too many olds then low birth rates are your problem. People aren't living much longer but we are having way, way fewer kids so olds make up like half the population.

But anyone who is onboard with that should be aware that life expectancy isn't where all the olds are coming from. There's more of them than young folk because we stopped making young folk.

The Guardian reported on this last week but it all read as very speculative and with a big dollop of 'correlation is not causation' thrown in. Something to investigate though as who the gently caress knows what's going on with this virus.

Yeah, I agree. And I hope this large number of olds becomes the new normal as life expectancy stays high and birth rates stay low. We need new young people but we do not need more total people.

life is really fuckin weird about two years ago, my grandmother (who lived with my parents) suddenly started describing experiences that were clearly the result of some form of hallucination. everyone's immediate assumption was dementia, and while that likely contributed to some of it, we also found out a few months later that she had a small stroke that went undetected and impacted a part of her brain known to cause issues with visual / auditory hallucinations. it was pretty innocuous the vast majority of the time, but as her dementia worsened and the frequency of her episodes increased, my parents made the difficult decision to put her into a nursing home very close to where they live. fast-forward to present, and the nursing home my grandmother is at has had about 40 total covid cases and 15ish deaths. we found out monday that my grandmother tested positive. things aren't going well so far, and the family is starting to resign themselves to the fact that she will likely pass in the next week or so. however, because of my grandmother's condition as a result of the stroke and the progression of her dementia, she has no idea that we're in a global pandemic and that she is likely days away from dying. she's telling the nurses she always has allergies this time of the year and that she'll be better in a few days. she believes she's tired because she's been running all over town recently. monday she was out and about visiting her brothers and sisters (many of whom have been dead for years). tuesday she was in her cousins wedding and ate waaaaaaay too much food. yesterday she was out all afternoon at a baseball game where she ran into an old friend. my grandma is locked away, isolated and dying, and the only thing preventing her from being scared and alone is her hosed up brain and all the ghosts of her dead loved ones. i don't know if this is a happy story or a sad one, but it's got me all hosed up the last few days.

whatis posted:i don't know if this is a happy story or a sad one, but it's got me all hosed up the last few days. Maybe it's a happy one. I had a dream the other night I guess about the concept of how happiness is an arbitrary chemical reaction, and in many ways a solved problem (drugs can reproduce it) and far less difficult to solve than humanity's other problems. In the dream, I was in a COVID ward, totally euphoric on drugs and just coming off a ventilator. The staff didn't seem to understand why everything was so zen but my drugged self knew it was. After waking up I felt a lot less afraid of death and a lot less concerned about my individual life compared to where society as a whole moves and what it learns. An individual's happiness can be trivially fixed with some drugs, or some fortuitous brain dysfunction, whereas collectively there's far more progress still to be made.

https://twitter.com/guardian/status/1255799389240451074 More cruise ship drama. Potential for the plague ships to become pirate ships now. I really hope the crews trapped on there either mutiny or get repatriated home, what a lovely situation for them.

so there's been a million reported cases of coronaveerus in the us. testing is kinda hosed so thats obviously only a fraction of actual cases. lets say something crazy like only one in fifty people that catch it get tested. so fifty million cases. that's only around 15% of the country. there's still soooooooo many people left to get sick if we don't stamp it out.
