“Bryan Johnson wants you to join his new religion. It’s called ‘Don’t Die.’ This isn’t a joke.”

“The most interesting thing about Johnson isn’t that he previously used injections of his son’s blood in an attempt to stay young. It’s not that he has a six-hour morning routine that keeps his health from being a benefit to anyone but him…. It’s that he, without irony, believes he’s ushering in a new eschaton.” - TGC

Looking a bit at his bio--in recent pictures, he looks a lot like "Data" from Star Trek TNG--I'm thinking his new initiative looks a lot like narcissistic personality disorder. Taking plasma or blood for your own son to try and achieve immortality? Seriously? I'm thinking Mary Shelley wrote us something to warn about this. Really, his adult life--a series of broken relationships, really--serves as a warning about the consequences of excessive self-regard.

(brilliant guy except for the inability to see the consequences of actions, IMO)

Aspiring to be a stick in the mud.
