It’s not as bad as you think. Its just the young man a rich older man pays to live a cloistered life and occasionally give blood to the older man in the belief that it will slow or reverse aging.
Thiel seems like the kind of psycho that 100% believes that getting transfusions of blood from younger, hotter people will make him young and hot and keep him alive forever.
Well it certainly does help rejuvenate mice. “Replacing plasma of old mice with saline and albumin from young mice was sufficient to rejuvenate brain, liver, and muscle.”
He might actually be the most frightening individual that walks the earth in terms of insanity with influence and power, and I fully realize the gravity of that sentence
If it makes you feel any better he also strikes me as the panicky stupid type, y’know the type that thinks they’re super smart cool and collected but collapse like soaked cardboard when a car backfires. Wait no that actually probably makes it worse on a moment to moment basis, upside is whatever plans he does have probably would die pretty violently on first contact.
That’s a very cruel way to explain what having a blood boy is. They don’t think that. They just think it will keep them young and hot long enough for them to see technology advance to a more sophisticated solution.
I hear you, but the best way to learn about this is by watching Silicone Valley. While depressing facts like the existence of blood boys are revealed, the show is net worth it.
I don’t know what a “blood boy” is and I don’t want to know.
I am going to bed now

They don’t bathe in it or anything.
Yeah gonna doubt that one. Was probably at least once a day.
No, just inject it into their veins 😂
I mean, they do bathe in it, it’s just not a key part of the blood boy process. More a, “why not, we have all this poor people blood already?”

The second movie was better. I couldn’t stand the fast-forwarding in Fury Road.
I liked the story, but I can’t stand these movies that are 100% green screened and seem to take place in a perpetual dust storm.
You think Fury Road was primarily green screened?
The majority of what was done was compositing. The stunts, props, etc. were real. The crashing war rig was real, for example.
It’s one of the things I thinks makes Furiosa worse - much less practical.
Doof Warrior’s flamethrower guitar is also a fully functioning prop 🤘
No, I’m over 25 and have breasts.
think vampires. and you can fill in the rest.

That was the show with the blood boy smoking weed?
