[Open Longevity @OpenLongevity]

Three years of work by [mostly] @Scinquisitor and our team [as much as we could]. We are beyond grateful to all the experts who shared their knowledge (1,300+ references), to our brilliant illustrator Olga Posukh and multiple editors. The book indeed turned out to be the one to be proud of! Go check it out.

[Nastya Egorova @longevitynastya]

We published a book! It's an overview of current longevity research, dense with facts and full of stories and cultural references. New to longevity field and need a good solid basis? I honestly think this book turned out to be a great starting point covering both biohacking and more serious therapies, calorie restriction and cellular reprograming, philosophy and extracellular matrix... among other topics!

3rd place (2/2):
This one's on point though!

And the winner of the last week Meme Contest is… @3Solaris!

We hope our tiny snack 100 USDT bill will make this meme making game even more exciting. Thank you and keep going! Dear potential sponsors, let’s make this less embarrassing maybe?

Here’s your meme response to someone willing to die and kill us all for the sake of evolution and future generations:

[Open Longevity @OpenLongevity]

3rd place: “MTLA: Transhumanists” (30 USDT)[Telegram channel name]

For 2 memes combined, both were originally posted in Russian, in the same “Transposons” chat.

This one is great but not exactly the "response to common argument":

1/2

[Open Longevity @OpenLongevity]

Time to start our meme contest! The theme is Objections to Life Extension.

Ever talked to someone about longevity and faced ridiculous “overpopulation” claims? Maybe they came up with a different [original] reason or excuse why helping people live longer is a bad idea? Yes, it’s paradoxical—one needs to persuade that being alive is better than being dead. Memes are the most eloquent answer to this absurdity.

Common objections for your memes:
• Overpopulation will be a problem
• Life will be boring
• Better a short, full life than a long, miserable one
• Only healthspan matters
• Immortal dictators!
• Death is natural
• Evolution will stop
• Aging is impossible to defeat
• Infinity is unachievable
• Avoiding death is selfish
• Death gives life meaning
• I’m curious about the afterlife
• We’ll be stuck with old ideas forever

How to participate
Post a new, original meme that hasn’t been published anywhere before. Choose one of the options:
• Reply to this tweet with your meme
• Post it elsewhere and reply here with a link
• Quote this tweet with your meme

Prizes
1st place: $100
2nd place: $70
3rd place: $30
