This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

They would still die from multitude of reasons, like accidents, incurable illness, getting killed... and if that's not enough, there's still the heat death of the universe
Not neccassarily inescapable though. From my understanding you can pretty much stretch out time arbitrarily long by warping spacetime, you could make the heat death for your local area infinitely far in the future.
Theres also the possibility to escaping into a parallel reality that is younger or stable.
Physics thought experiments that people assume to be true; that’s just space fantasy.
? No, artificial time dilation is well recognised. Its one of the most tested theories of all time. Admittedly, what i mentioned goes a step beyond that, but you could absolutely live inside the event horizon of a black hole for basically forever, ACCORDING TO THE THEORIES. Of course we havent experimentally confirmed that, but we havent experimentally confirmed the heat death either. Its all theories, and of the two, time dilation is the more tested and confirmed.
Alternate reality though, yeah thats scifi.
