I suppose all stars visible to the human eye have got to be at most the order of magnitude of 1000 ly away.

Some of the dumbest people I know are 25

People at work always assume i'm 20-26 years old. People who are actually that age always talk to me as if i'm that age. The other day i talked to an electrician, he was 23, and his co workers were younger than him. Like they played call of duty on their phones on their break. Sometimes just in between breaks, which i don't care, but they were super behind and that's why i had to talk to the guy. I told him that they really need to hurry up, they are behind and if they are not finished this week, it's gonna ve real expensive. He looked at me for a few seconds, dabbed, said something i did not understand and ran off ro do his job. I never felt that old in my life, are people still dabbing? A day later, they pulled me into a conversation and i legitimately had no idea what they are talking about, and i usually at least have some clue. I told them that i'm 41 and have no idea what you mean. They then proceeded to actually talk to me like a human.

Or, to quote LCD Soundsystem:

Sound of silver, talk to me
Makes you want to feel like a teenager
Until you remember the feelings of
A real-life emotional teenager
Then you think again

I never felt my age, so whatever.

I learned this summer bristlecone pines are among the longest lived life forms on earth. The oldest known non-clonal tree in the world is a bristlecone pine, named Methuselah, in California over 4800 years old. Its exact location is a closely guarded secret since the last oldest tree, also a bristlecone pine, was accidentally cut down.

Even when not grown as a crop, alders, willows, and birches tend to have a more ‘human’ lifespan, around a century or so.

Then on the other end of the spectrum, there are trees like yews, sequoias, and bristlecone pines, which live for millennia.

Well, you could say Dennis!

It wasn't Magic Dragon Lady, was it?
