This might be evidence that the gravitational constant G is changing (increasing) over time! Could this be the explanation for dark matter and dark energy?

This would also explain why my bathroom scale has been showing larger and larger numbers to me! Genius. I'd say you're onto something, but I can't tell if you're also joking.

Occam's razor says it's less likely that the gravitational constant is increasing and more likely that the ability to withstand the pull of gravity decreases with age.
