It won’t work as there is no you remaining to age, die, and leave bones for you to find.
What you need to do is travel back in time, stop your past self from doing the same, and THEN going forward in time to get your bones.
But maybe that’s the key to immortality ! Get your own bones so that you will never leave any remains - > immortality achieved
But then there won’t be a future self to go back and stop the past self from doing what his current self will never do in the first place.
He needs to go forward like planned and make sure he returns to give his current(now past and future)self his own bones and then end himself to break the paradox.
It could work. You’d just have to make sure to know when and where you will die. Then you could take your bones go back in time and die where you are supposed to.
I guess it depends on the time travel model at hand.
It’s hard to find a flaw in his logic.
I’ve pondered on the idea that, although not comfortably, you could in theory have any bone in your body surgically removed and live to see it. Except your skull. You’ll never see your own skull.
You could remove a small piece of the skull and live to see it.
In this essay titled “Skull of reverse Theseus” I will explain…
not with that attitude you won’t.
guys I can’t find my boner
Meticulous attention to restoring your own future gravesite after the graverobbing will not prevent altering the future in ways impossible in the normal passage of time. Obviously, unspeakable events will unfold.
I propose, in order to prevent any time slippage issues, I offer a future grave robbing service. In the the future, when you are gone, but I am here, time travel tech will be a-ok!
So you can pay me now, and receive your own bones at any point in your life. We have a London shipping underwriters service to guarantee satisfaction and we try really hard to avoid “time crimes”, hahaha who are those time cop clowns
how am i supposed to know that they’re actually my bones though? what if you’re just shipping me some other dudes bones? I mean, i’ll take em, but i’d prefer my own brand.
As there are no means of verifying anything to do with bones, I am insured and I offer a guarantee
Does it come with an official looking certificate?
Found the Oglaf reader.
see if they’re dry
OP is a homunculus from OG Fullmetal Alchemist.

Fate. The grail is a lie!
Still a better reason to fight than whatever bullshit Kyubey (Madoka Magika) was trying to sell
I mean you never know when you’ll need a spare set of bones. It’s smart to keep an extra set of bones in the trunk of your car along with some emergency equipment, ropes, and a shovel.
“On what grounds”?
Why does your time machine copy you?
If they’re just gonna return back to the exact point in time they left they’re guaranteed to supply their past self with their future bones
Get cremated. A lot easier to grab an urn off your Grandkid’s side table.
You’re not supposed to see yourself when you time travel
