Exactly. It’s not like you experienced anything before you were born either. Your brain starts sending signals, you experience those signals. After your brain stops your experience stops. Everyone has already observed this phenomenon. Unless technology advances to a point where we can reverse entropy somehow to the point where we can resurrect your dead brain cells, you will not experience anything ever again. And that’s fine, it won’t be scary, you won’t care, because you literally can’t.

I don't agree that the cessation of brain activity necessarily means the end of the subjective experience. That doesn't mean I purport to know what actually happens at that point. I hope it's some sort of reincarnation but that's just because there's more I want to experience in this universe than I possibly could in a single lifetime.

"You only have one life, live it the best you can" is a nice motivational mantra, but however well I live my life, it's highly unlikely I will live long enough to experience interstellar travel, for example, or first contact with alien life. I think that really fucking sucks, and I really hope I'll have a chance on the next go-around. But if it's something completely different, I'm cool with that, too.

Nope, just aware there are different ways of thinking about it — wasn't implying any one was wrong or right
