Every old man I know loves retirement, because they retired on their own terms.

I bet I'm right.
It’s no different than unemployment at any other age

If a person can find a sense of purpose that is fulfilling to them, whether like starkind says that’s serving God or serving their community in some form, and if they still develop a healthy routine for themselves, then that person will be ok with unemployment (assuming they can still handle the basics of food/water/shelter/security) or retirement IMO

Unsunghero is right. Work is more than income.

Do G-d's work.

No one sane or good wants to rot away in a lazyboy. That is a disease of Satan and domination.

Why is it only men whose potential retirement we've disccused, is it because I would guess most of us are men? Do the same things that often happen to men happen to women as well?

Most of the bosses I've had have been women.

My dad retired like three years ago and is kind of falling apart, my mom retired like fifteen years ago and she's still generally healthy for a woman her age AFAIK

Idle hands. Men can’t handle not being occupied. If I were ever truly bored, I’d reforge the persian empire and March the Arabs and Turks into the ocean for their crimes

I guess my "someone expresses a violent fantasy on the elf forum" drinking game may have been a bad call, heh

I wonder if this makes the reverse true. Can women handle boredom better than men?

I watched this video. P cool. Some real assholes. The starppl were p cool tho. The ones that got around with farts. Was waiting for earth 2.0. There where ruins... records, especially on the gravitals original world.. surprised they didn't try to re-engineer our original form.

I think the case may be made that earth and it's ecosystem is unique, and without it, we cease to remain in this form.
