Sucking the life out of children

Sometimes reality is really fucking weird:

Some tRump supporters want to bleed you dry, literally:

Thiel — a hedge funder who acted as a delegate for Donald Trump and spoke at the 2016 Republican National Convention — is reportedly obsessed with defying death and extending the human lifespan.

Gawker reported that it received a tip claiming Thiel “spends $40,000 per quarter to get an infusion of blood from an 18-year-old based on research conducted at Stanford on extending the lives of mice.”

but I'm sure a lot of old rich guys view the rest of us as a source of spare body parts already. Look at Cheney.

Eventually they're going to stop waiting for us to die without their intervention.

Then again, the worst curse I can hurl at any of them is the curse of immortality, lived in poverty.
