If a single celled organism successfully divides, is it dead? Wouldn’t a single cell eventually grow into a colony of clones, copying itself indefinitely until some random mutation or outside force prevents it from reproducing? Where would it be considered appropriate for us to consider a single celled organism dead?
It’s a quick reset, though. You’ll get back to human eventually unless you end up as one of those immortal trees or something.
Imagine rolling tardigrade.

I mean, being a tree isn’t that bad
It is in this boomer run, fuck the environment world.
Unless you’re a Bradford Pear. 🤮
