Physical age involves atrophy of the internal systems and faulty brain functions, to which the ethereal life force is not bound to.
but in a holistic system like the nervous system, isn’t the basis of function intrinsically tied to the failings and imperfections such that a mind that operates in the same way (in more mundane terms, is the same person) must itself emulate the self-same atrophy until eventually the spirit is unable to maintain coherent thoughts?
Once the soul leaves the body the progression of that atrophy reaches a halt, the essence remains in an immutable state of the self, which is why a ghost will stick around the place of death and remain irresponsive to outside stimuli.
Look, you’re poking at an existentialist area of the phantom stuff and I’m both uninterested and unwilling to disclose information on the conclusions I’ve come to after my many ponderings on the subject - _-
So just have this pictur you reminded me of:
If it doesn’t respond to outside stimuli, how can you fuck it?

easyfox7: i wonder why we've never heard about cavemen ghost? its always a 1800's or something ghost. they got issues?
The more ancient ones got added to the cycle of animist beliefs and from there met one of three different ends:
Wandering aimlessly around designated haunted areas
Reincarnated as part of another being
Trapped in fetishes for miscellaneous use by a qualified shaman
Then there’s the ones that got bound to their corporeal bodies via mummification technologies and await a reversion to the natural deterioration of their body to enjoy the eternal life that medicine of their time could not grant them.
Anonymous: *ghost who died in the 1890s* "Back in my day, we didn't have type-writers, we wrote everything by hand, and it BUILT CHARACTER. You kids are so spoiled on your fountain pens, not having to dip every 5 seconds? Makes me sick.
Typewritters were invented in the 1860′s and were widespread by the 70′s already, your ghost is a nekulturny hack - _-
