You don’t need to be too smart to see this… unless you’re a liberal redditor then you surely think you are.

I’m using you the same as you are, not meaning you the commenter lol

Not if you learn to understand the people around you, and their limitations, and to anticipate and work around them with compassion and understanding.

Deadpool?

What if there’s an earthquake and you get stuck under a mountain of rubble? Could take months for you to get out of there. How about a skiing accident involving an avalanche? Could take even longer When you are completely immortal, you suddenly start to view certain risks in a very different way.

Sometimes the always on healing works so good cells start doing things like reactivating telomerase and ignoring the signals for programmed cell death and become cancer, sometimes turning effectively immortal.

Not for everything and not good enough though.

Especially for something as complex as mental illnesses/trauma your body has hardly any ability to heal by itself.

Though then we can get pedantic: How long should you feel down when someone you love died? Because I don’t consider it a bad thing for something like this to take a while before healing. It’d suck to attend their funeral having completely healed already.

Technically, you can fly towards the ground while being upright(unless the feet are the sole thrusters), to get that feel, right?

Just don’t travel through hyperspace.

Sometimes pedantry is beautiful

Bro casted familicide

Logically since all billionaires die, their lineage would be gradually wiped out.

Where it gets tricky is how they would manage the money. If the money is not directly controlled by them, are they billionaires? So does the CFO of a multi billion dollar company also get turned inside out?

It would be a heck of a monkey paw without stipulations that would make the point worthless.

Counterpoint:

Who cares?

The traumatic shock of any one person personally possessing a billion dollars or more in wealth being Dr. Manhattan’d would eventually lead people to realize that they need to redistribute wealth.

The potential number of potentially innocent people killed by this process is infinitesimal compared to the deaths and uneccessary harm caused by the general hoarding of wealth.

The new, hard mandated moral norm of the planet would be that possessing over a billion dollars gets you functionally smote by god, obviously the universe has imposed a hard cap on wealth accumulation and thus it is actually bad.

You can quibble about inflation, and I can quibble about making some more precise measure based on a formulation revolving around proportion to the median wealth of 100 miles of where the ‘billionaire’ is currently standing.

We are talking about magical superpowers here, presumably there would be a magical way to force actual transparency of hidden assets and what not, account for non liquid investements, all that.

A sane world that exists after this paradigm would put in place basically the reverse of overdraft protection, it would automatically stop any desposit that would make your net wealth exceed the magic number, it would automatically disperse shares of stocks or CDs or bonds or whatever to some kind of public pool or random people such that no individual ever singly has over a billion bucks or whatever the magic number is.

If you did not create a world like that, then ‘random’ people would keep liquifying whenever their net wealth exceedes magic number.

Every incentive would thus exist for all but the literally suicidal to carefully manage their investments and basically create something like the above mentioned system.

… You could probably make a decent anime or show out of this idea.

Its like a Death Note on autopilot, and if it is actually emmenating from a single person, doubtless a number of oligarchs would attempt to hide their wealth, as well as probe the system to figure out its rules, figure out who the actual person with this ‘superpower’ is, and kill them.

This person may not even know it is them, and then they may figure it out on their own, or may be prevented from being assasinated by some other group that did figure out it is them, and wants to protect them because billionaires bad.

Tons of dramatic person to person character dynamics, as well as larger scale social conflict plot setups here.

Wait would shape shifting mean you can just heal your body by shape shifting into healthy body parts? Is shape shifting would also be considered healing then?

I mean the power is on all the time she just has to wish for them to blow up but yeah I would have go live with some monks after I did the first batch to make sure my mind is centered but I’m willing to make that sacrifice

I don’t think it would be worth it, as the thermal conduction would be far too low to be useful

However, it would be a useful ability in extreme environments, such as space or Antarctica or something like that. So your chances of becoming an astronaut would massively increase.

He is saying being fluent and able to understand it too. So never stops means he can’t ever forget a language, as I’m interpreting it.

you mean I can’t stop talking and I’m super annoying or I can shut up and use a phone app.

Why screwed?
