Today's prompt is 'pizza' and I drew a sausage pizza.


Reconstructed person was cryogenically stored and brought back in some form. Like Bob in the Bobiverse...

Ask some questions about this person, why they died young or at all, as the main reason persons born after 2000 tend to live such long lives is that I am assuming aging is defeated.

Born: 2025, died: 2146, age: 121

Born in 2025, this person could have been born to people my nieces' age and lived what would today be a long life into the middle 22nd century, but that might not be uncommon then... If they are biologically immortal then they would have died by some misadventure and may very well have had many children, decades apart. Even if they had a kid every generation, whatever that means in this context, then that's an average population growth rate of about 3%. Even once per century is roughly one percent. even without compounding that's doubling or quadrupling the population every century, for a few trillion or quadrillion after a thousand years. Cultural norms will lag a bit, but having children will probably be something you 'get around to' by middle age, whatever the half life of immortals is in a world or system where people still die, just not of old age.
