Yet you confirm their incentive structure in every other way in a day to day basis.

This is the thing I don't really understand about you. Nothing to live for yet risk aversive. The **** is there to lose?
Not being terrified.

Bro, I've been alive and suffering all this time, watching the world roil and boil every single day, trying to figure out how and if any of it means anything to me, and you're telling me I don't even get to see how it works out? **** you. I want to see how global warming turns out. I want to know if we ever get out of the solar system. I want to see if Israel nukes Iran first or vice versa. I've invested a lot of ****ing time thinking about this **** and I deserve to have my curiosity sated. I can always take a leap off a cliff if life ever gets too real but I'd still like the option of not dying.
