    Never tried heroin.

    If, by some unfortunate circumstances, I survive to 70, I am doing ALL the heroin!

    Why continue to play it safe? So I can eat watered down jello, observe my faculties and senses diminish day by day, and piss my pants for another 10-20 years until I expire like spoiled produce with Matlock playing in the background?

    Too many people living and working for a possible retirement that may or may not come are going to be disappointed that all they slaved and sacrificed for was to be a worn out husk sitting in a chair too far into decomposition to start living 65 years in.

    My work has taken me to countless retirement communities at every socio-economic level, from wards of the state who signed away their social security, to the wealthy family members that the 1% throws away to die. The only differences are in the food and the common area decor, and some cheap tapestries don’t change the reality. There are a lot of courteous smiles, but absolutely zero happiness to be found in any of them in my experience.

    I call working with the intent to make it to that literal shitshow planning for failure.

      You are not accounting for your changing appetite and priorities though. Willing to bet heroine sounds much less appealing then than now. Maybe stop holding back so much and just do a little heroin now?

      Also, check out the 99PI podcast on the Model Village - it might give you some hope for better options, but I’m not too excited as our species and especially my country are pretty good bout fucking these kinda things up.

      70? People these days are still in good shape at 70, I don’t know what age you are but by the time you reach 70 you’ll probably be today’s 60 years old! I don’t think we’ve got that many users on here that are over 60!

        I work in hospice and have seen patients (and family members) 90+ who I could have mistaken for late 60s - early 70s. I also recently met a patient’s wife who was 20 years younger than him, but was in worse shape and looked his age (82) if not older. Genetics and life experience are wild.

      I believe that everyone should smoke, drink, and enjoy the occasional hard drug- just start when you’re 75 or 80. Fucking party on the way out.

        Spoken like a true 20 year old who has no concept of what health at 75 looks like. The alcohol hangovers will last multiple days, you might have a lung condition that prevents you from smoking, your circulation will massively shit the bed off stimulants (think racing heart, cold sweats, feeling weak, anxiety) and opioids… well, opioids might be mostly okay except for the constipation I guess. Withdrawals might incapacitate you for months though.

          Yeah, that’s why I mostly took my retirement in my twenties and thirties when you can enjoy it. In my forties I’m having to work to pay back the debts and survive and stuff but that’s made bearable by the knowledge of drugs which I gained early in life. If I somehow accidentally make it close to sixty I want to have enough credit score that I can start borrowing again, I’ll be able to do it a lot more illegally this time and enjoy my twilight days until one of the gangs I owe vast sums to catches up to me and organizes a burial at sea.

      I agree wholeheartedly. My wife and kid have a standing order that should I get dementia, I am to be left in the woods very far from civilization. And just to make that less likely, On my 70th birthday I will be buying the fastest available motorcycle. And no helmet. Which theoretically should have me reduced to a wet smear on the pavement in short order.

      The worst thing I can think of is for me to be a burden on my loved ones.

      Hi, I treat people with SUDs and many of them are in their 60s, some older. Nothing ruins lives like heroin. Nothing. People just want to enjoy their final years with family but addiction rips them away. People lose limbs to heroin. People lose minds.

      How about instead you just say you wanna kill yourself at 70? Say it with your fucking chest and stop glorifying poison.

            Young people sex is kinda gross if you think about it. I understand old people are aloud to have a libido but that doesn’t mean I want to watch it or hear about it.

      Because a lot of people find older folks having sex really icky. And it’s such a deeply ingrained and weird take.

        The real issue is the absolutely pathetic state of sex ed in the US. A lot of these people probably grew up thinking that “safe sex” meant doing it when she isn’t ovulating and somehow never learned any better despite living through the AIDS epidemic of the 1980s.

          Man, what’s heart breaking is congenital syphilis. A disease that’s passed to an infant at birth. In 2012, it was almost gone from the US.

          In 2021 it has surged by 201% nationally and quadruple digit percentage in some States.

          And given the antibiotic resistance that’s quickly building up, we may never be able to get rid of it now without some new advancement.

          And the vast majority of the surge has been due to people either not being able to have a prenatal screening or not wanting it.

          It is one of the most depressing defeats. Especially considering the damage the disease does to the child brain and heart. It’s just an unspeakable L humanity has had to take on this.

            I agree with you, but I don’t think you can blame congenital syphilis on nursing home residents unless it’s male residents banging female nurses young enough to be fertile.

          Nothing wrong with that. A lot of them have spent their entire adult lives working for the man. 40+ hours a week on the job from 18-65 isn’t a life; it’s a fucking life sentence.

      My better half works in a nursing home. The one she works in now is more “independent”, she used to work in a nursing home that also had a “memory care” (Alzheimer’s/dementia) wing.

      She explains that the sex is rampant. Her favorite story was about a couple who would sneak into a supply closet to do the sweaty, wrinkly deed. But they weren’t as sneaky as they thought, because they would park their walkers outside the closet.

      What happens sometimes, is you have these elderly people, who have lost someone they have been married to for decades. And they’re lonely, but they are surrounded by other people around their age who have also lost someone who was in their lives for decades.
