Dude, get a normal fucking hobby.
IMMORTALITY!
If you’re immortal, your can play through ALL normal hobbies - twice!
Check mate, mortal!
Is it not normal to look up to Dorian Gray?
He looks like a zombie of Paul Rudd
This will not end well for him. He’s doing a bunch of experiments, all at once, with a sample size of one.
This is how we get mutated supervillains
Finally!
You really want to live in a world with supervillains and few heroes, let alone any superheroes?
I don’t think we’ll have a choice.
Sure, but that other person expressed joy. I’m questioning the nature of that joy, not their agency.
“The attempt on my life has left me scarred”
Shhhhh, shhhhh, let him cook…himself.
I hope that guy comes to terms with his mortality. I struggle with aging with every creature around me and myself.
I look forward to it (my own mortality) being a nice surprise.
Hopefully a very long time from now.
I’m the meantime, anyone want to buy my book on immortality? It has worked perfectly… So far.
I don’t struggle with it at all, it happens all by itself without need of intervention
It’s very practical in that way.
He should try just getting a blood boy like Gavin Belson did in Silicon Valley
Oh, his blood boy is his son.
Unfortunately I’m not kidding.
Oh shit… I sometimes forget how little the truth has to bend for satire. I’m glad my dad isn’t into that
I’m pretty sure the Silicon Valley joke was based on this guy.
Or Peter Theil
To be fair he stopped that too, turns out you can’t do enough transfusions to make any difference.
Worst My Dad Is Dracula comic ever.
This dude takes a ton of pills a day and uses his son’s blood, but still looks older than some Asians several years older than him.
Or Paul Rudd, who is nearly 10 years older. Some people just age better than others.
It might be more science-y if he had an identical twin and only one of them was getting the supplements.
He’s looking like a Dollar Store Data
Anecdota
Oops! It wasn’t “de-aging drug” it was “de (of) aging drug”
It’s like headache pills.
or lobster sauce
Or Pepsi
I love how millionaires think they can cheat death, just because they have money.
Let them try. Maybe some of that money will go to researching something useful like cancer treatments.
It was kind of funny until he used his son’s blood and “more recently, used “shock treatments” on his genitals in an apparent effort to reverse age his penis”
I don’t know …let him keep shocking his balls. Just let him try. It’s funnier this way.
If he could just convince Elon Musk that it works…
He looks ~400 years old.
That’s crazy since he is actually predates humanity
I do think that aging is something we can overcome. It’ll take some exponential jumps in research/technology for it to happen in our lifetime though. What worries me is the ultra wealthy hoarding that discovery for themselves.
This is my concern too. Sure, I’m not a huge fan of the idea of myself dying someday, old and decrepit. But there are a ton of people out there about whom it gives me some relief to remember that they too will die. And most of them are the kind of people who whold have first access to anti-aging treatments.

The wealthy don’t stay that way by keeping tech secret, they stay that way by selling it to everybody else.
I can’t wait to read “Longevity-Obsessed tech millionaire dies of natural causes at 72 years old.”
You mean at 60 from a cancer with all the sketchy garbage his body had to assimilate?
I remember him taking snake venom injections ffs
Something something Steve Jobs.
Still angry about how he basically gave himself pancreatic cancer by following an all fruit diet, then somehow managed to get a transplant before a bunch of way more deserving people. Only to die a few years later anyway.
54
Now now, I’m not trying to be too cruel. Guy hasn’t done anything to upset me.
I just know in my heart that he will die like the rest of us.
That would be funny
Dude took an immunosuppressant for five years to try and live longer.
I mean… when you say it out loud, sure that does seem misguided…
That’s a shame, rapamycin had a lot of promising studies.
he has used his own teenage son’s blood to test whether transfusions from a younger person had any direct health benefit on someone his age (he has since discovered that they do not)
Imagine if it worked, though. This dude would have a basement full of teenagers, their blood being siphoned for his own twisted purpose.
I can’t wait for him to sacrifice his son to save prolong his own life (how noble)
Kinda like the book “the house of the scorpion”
Not only him, but other rich people too. Glad that didn’t work
I mean, if it did work he’d have a pretty strong motive to claim that it didn’t.
