Young women, scotch and cigarettes seem to work

Ran into a friend I hadn’t seen in years.

He looked mid 79’s

Weird, since we are both 55...

These mice are the same age but the lower has not been given anti-ageing drugs.

The upper one looks as if he's had his face lifted at least a few times.

You tend to find older individuals who are completely healthy and are playing 18 rounds of golf a day,

That would be impressive.

Some children alive today may live to be hundreds of years old.

Drugs to stop aging have been just around the corner since at least the 1970s. I remember reading an article in Science Digest in the mid 1970s that confidently predicted that a treatment to stop aging was only 5 to 10 years away. Of course, at the same time they were also predicting Global Cooling and the coming of the next ice age.

Meanwhile, scientists have cured cancer in mice dozens of times over the years. The treatments just don’t translate to humans.

Uh huh. May not want to (afford to) live to be 130 but might be nice to be 90 and feel like you are 60.

Sounds like a precarious scenario to me. What happens when you are 90 and want to continue to live but can’t afford to or become a burden to others or get to be 100 or 120 and start feeling and having the problems of a “normal” 80 or 90 year old. What then?

Sounds like a scam.

But, NIA apparently funded the mouse studies.

Who wants to be an old mouse, anyway?

Running through mazes.

Running from cats.

Running to eat moldy cheese.

adding around 30 years to humans,

Since I have no kids, there would be no one to take care of me when my retirement savings run out......

If anyone would be willing to start a GoFund me page, I would appreciate it......

Sounds like exercise and intermittent fasting really help. That is good.

The Scifi role-playing game Traveller had a different word than “senolytics”. Their word was Anagathic. https://wiki.travellerrpg.com/Anagathic

Traveller was first published in 1977. So perhaps another case of science fiction becoming science fact?
