@ElonMusk_LordX Well the cold hard answer is that the purpose of life is to reproduce as much as possible to give the best odds of having your genetic material survive for as long as possible. However it will mutate over time and become something else. So it's a bit of a ship of thesius.
@Asmongold My dad passed yesterday. He'd been unhealthy and I'd been taking care of him these last six years. I'm devastated. Take all the time you need and spend as much time with him as you can. Nothing lasts forever.
