This guy will die from his hubris someday

[–] rimu@piefed.social 4 points 2 weeks ago

Yeah I'm about his age but I think I'll outlive him.

How do you think it'll happen? Bonus points if it's creative

[–] SaveTheTuaHawk@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 weeks ago

Not creative...he induced an autoimmune disease by taking some stupid peptide. It will eventually kill him.

He gave himself an eventual fatal autoimmune disease by injecting peptides.

Be hilarious if his clone escapes and replaces him. Sad part is we wont know.

This spotlight craving bitch did nothing of the sort. He's got someone growing a few of his cells in a pitri dish, nothing more.

Did he watch Rick and Morty or something? tf?

FYI. This is illegal in most countries. Guess which shit hole it's legal in, as long as it's a private company?
