Screenshot of a Mastodon post - A picture of the bridge of the Enterprise-D from Star Trek The Next Generation’s first season. In it are Captain Picard, Doctor Crusher, and Wesley Crusher in the Captain’s chair.

The text reads:
“Wil Wheaton is now five years older than Patrick Stewart was in the pilot of Star Trek the next generation. Have your bones demineralized and fallen apart yet?”

Many really old people say that they’re ‘done’ with life, so I guess?

Many old people are too frail to enjoy the things they used to. I mean maybe one would still get bored of life if they had eternal youth, but I suspect it would take much longer, not considering mental illness and such.

Yes, the ones that I thought of meant that they were finished with life, as in have done what they wanted and being content with being at lifes end. So I mean, probably people would get to the point where they’re ‘done’.
