Living to 180? The body will be replaced, organs will be printed, and the brain - it will be backed up to the cloud | Meir Uziel

The division and rift in the nation over the question of whether unity is necessary have reached new heights.

Communication researchers from 300 leading universities in the world have made an amazing discovery: there are other topics besides the Palestinians.

At an international communication conference, attended by most researchers from the world's leading universities, a 30-year study was presented, in which the researchers reached a conclusion that surprised even them: there are other topics in the world besides the Palestinians.

The finding caused astonishment, and at first, the researchers decided to shelve it, fearing a media crisis and the closure of stations due to a lack of topics, but scientific truth finally prevailed and it was decided to publish the study, come what may.

Life extension soon

I read that scientific developments predict that soon we will live to be 180 years old. I ask to hurry. Although 180 is not enough for me, let's start with that. Then we will move towards 360 years and beyond. Enough with death.

I read that there will be all kinds of medicines for life extension, but the main innovation is that they will replace parts of our body. They will build them with artificial intelligence and printers, and transplant a liver, lung, heart, spleen, pancreas, or small intestine into us. Maybe even all the skin.

Wait, and how will they replace a brain? A brain is the place where all our knowledge and memories reside; some say that perhaps the soul is found in some fold of it. I assume that copying it is not a problem: they will back up the old brain to the cloud.

And this creates a problem: will someone who has a lot in their brain pay more? (I'm not worried, because I will surely pay little).

The parallel is so clear

"Friends, we must prepare for the election campaign, and to gain voters we must say things that will speak to the hearts of our voters."

"I want to point out that the similarities between Benjamin Netanyahu and Hitler are so prominent that it is hard to understand how people do not notice this. Look: Hitler had two eyes and a nose, and Benjamin Netanyahu also has two eyes and a nose. Is this a coincidence? Do one more thing: look thoroughly at photos of Hitler and notice that one hand comes out on each side of his body. If you look at Benjamin Netanyahu, you will see that he also has a hand on each side of his body. What else does a person need to understand that there are very many parallel lines between Benjamin Netanyahu and Hitler?"

"There is more, but the voters for Benjamin Netanyahu are blind people. Blind! They don't want to hear and don't want to understand. Our voters are different. They will understand this and agree with this."

What will happen to love songs?

Oli Sinai is a 20-year-old singer who writes words about love. All of them are about bad love, about love as a disaster. She sings, for example: "You don't listen when I talk / You fall in love with someone else."

She says in her TikTok honestly: "I can't manage to write something that isn't self-pitying."

I noticed that young Israeli singers sing only about unrequited love or a lack of love. There is no song about happy love, but about separation, longing, bad relationships, insecurity, and loneliness. Here is a collage from the songs of Noy Dekel, Shira Margalit, Nunu, and Adi Agay:

"When I closed my eyes, I was scared, and meanwhile on the path to the chuppah in a white dress you are not here. I deserve more, instead of you giving up, get up and fight for me like I fought for us. I deleted Tinder, I will never be there, sitting in bed eating Kinder. I am not going back, I am not getting on all fours, I am not keeping in touch, I am not doing anything to spite you."

You need to see the girls in the audience of Adi Agay in the small places where she performs, roaring together with her the words "I am not going back, I am not getting on all fours," to understand that they love these words. And what about the young male singers? It is not hard to create a parallel list. Itay Levi and Sasson Shaulov sing: "And all night I am in complexes, she doesn't answer me." Itzik Kedem sings: "Another evening descends and I have no air / You are the only one who knew that on my heart it is written fragile... If I don't have you, there is no me."

The last real love songs that I can remember are "Can't Take My Eyes Off You" from 1997, or "Lucky That There Is You" (2003), which Amir Benayoun claims is not a love song to a woman but a song to music (and I don't believe him).

In short, young singers, although you don't manage to write something that isn't self-pitying, try. Be bold. Start singing about love with a little more love.
