I had a weird thought when i woke up
• if you cloned yourself, that person would be your twin.
you'd have the same birthday, same diseases, same breathing patterns, same memories...
• Would you be friends with your clone? would you like them personality-wise, i mean.
I don't think I'd like my clone, I'd probably find them annoying? I feel like I'd like myself because if i were to find someone out there who was like me, i'd be friends with them. But the person is me. I know what they're guilty of and the things I've done, it'll make the atmosphere uncomfortable. If my clone was me at a younger age, I'd totally be friends with myself! It would be more fun than me now (i feel like my current clone would be dull and boring to talk to).
• What if I killed my clone? I wouldn't get in trouble because I killed myself technically. Yet I'm still alive (if that's confusing, I meant that I killed my clone aka someone who is just like me, but I, the murderer, is still alive. It's a suicide technically, but I'm still alive).
• Would you clone yourself in the first place? I dunno. You and your clone can never share the same memories because your looking at things from different perspectives even of you do the same things together. Your clone could pretty much take over your life and that would be a problem, especially if we're talking about the law. However, I could see myself the way the world sees me. I never really know how I act and I can't describe it. Having a clone could change me. Anyways, I'd never clone myself or let anyone do so to me. It'd be confusing and horrifying to me. If my clone dies, would I be sad...? I'd think "Wait, this is me. I'm dead. Like, dead dead. Should anyone be sad? I mean, it doesn't matter since I'M still here, but..."
anyways, time to question everything :3
I used to watch that show when I was younger, it would always play at night, there was a book too I think-
• if you cloned yourself, that person would be your twin.

Different birthdays to a technicality. The day the clone was cloned would be the clone's "birthday".
Memories? Unless you cloned everything perfectly including your ever aging brain, I don't think the clone would have any memories when it get's cloned.
• Would you be friends with your clone? would you like them personality-wise, i mean.
Mostly agree accept with the being friends with young me. Screw young me.
• What if I killed my clone?
It's a clone, not a you. It is a replica of you. So, I think it would be counted as murder.
• Would you clone yourself in the first place?
No. It is truly terrifying all the paradoxes you can think yourself into with just clones. If you died, but your clone didn't or vice versa, would the clone/you die respectively with the one that has died? Or would this only happen if the original you was killed as your clone is incapable of sharing minds with a dead person without being dead? I just thought myself into an existential crisis of clones.

dam... that's some really deep thinking...

Is it just me, or do I think I just saw Weasel going deeper into Starry's questions than she did?
