Sc*ent*logy, the only term you might want to censor even in Saidit, because the walls got ears, and the paintings eyes...

Adrenochrome.

Nice try internet censorship crew.

Even though real-life adrenochrome is just oxidized epinepherine, and Hunter S. Thompson flat-out admitted that he invented the idea it was a psychoactive drug.

That is propaganda. epinephrine is NOT adrenaline or adrenochrome. We do not have the ability to synthesize adrenaline. Epinephrine has similar effects to adrenaline, and is often incorrectly conflated with it. Adrenochrome is the oxidized version of adrenaline.

Adrenaline is epinepherine. Two names for the same chemical. For the better part of a century, Americans were calling it "epinepherine" and the British were calling it "adrenaline," but it's the same stuff.

And it's been easy to isolate and purify since all the way back in 1901.

That's interesting. But cults are not based on logic or science. If people believe that adrenaline from tortured children has magic properties they will torture kids for it. Just like they kill rhinos for their horns and albinos because their bodies are believed to have special healing properties. Witchcraft is infamous for killing children for rituals and potions and hollywood is very pro witchcraft if the tone of all the shows they produce is any indication.

There is also scientific evidence that suggests infusion of young blood has healing properties. Whether that is from the adrenaline alone or because of the cocktail of chemicals that makes up the blood is ultimately irrelevant, rich people are absolutely doing it.

It's because of leukocyte telomere length. Nothing to do with adrenaline. But, yes, it absolutely works. Leukocytes that have only divided fifteen times work better than leukocytes that have divided forty times - for wound healing, disease recovery, everything. Basically, immune system aging is the single most important component of aging, and the immune system is mostly in the blood, so... yeah. Young blood reverses immune aging to some extent.

The thing is... I used to work in this field, and I've talked to dozens of extremely rich people who we were courting as donors - and none of them have ever heard of any of this. Telomere science somehow just doesn't get around. Our culture considers it "discredited" for some reason even though it just plain isn't. It's the reason we age and it holds the cure for aging.

Of course, there'd be no need or benefit to killing anyone for their young blood. Just... take blood draws and do transfusions. It's one of the strongest arguments for cloning yourself - just to infuse yourself with your younger self's blood twice a week or so.

Our culture considers it "discredited" for some reason

When self driving was the big talk all the shills and useful idiots spread the claim that you absolutely need lidar for it to work. I would always say that it can be done with cameras and enough computer learning and every single time be absolutely ratioed by people saying I was wrong. Then Tesla revealed their system which runs on normal cameras and no lidar.

The point is that there is always a lot of propaganda out there pushing people away from pursuing discoveries so that others can get to it first. That happens in spaded in the medical industry where there are a lot of trillion dollar companies with hundreds of years of practice in these kinds of tactics.

And the medical industry abhors a cure, but even more so any treatment that can be obtained outside of their ecosystem. Anyone can draw blood from a kid or teenager, do a simple blood type test, and infuse themselves. Anyone can open a clinic that does it professionally and ethically using volunteers.

The level to which the public falls for their propaganda is only an indication of how gullible the public is. However, there are always people in the know who are doing it even if the public at large has been dissuaded.

Anyone can draw blood from a kid or teenager, do a simple blood type test, and infuse themselves. Anyone can open a clinic that does it professionally and ethically using volunteers.

Here's the problem, though: the Hayflick Limit works both ways. Every time you get a transfusion of young blood, you gain maybe, say, ten days of life expectancy. But every time you give a blood transfusion, your telomeres shorten as the cells replace your blood, and you lose maybe, say, fifteen days of life expectancy.

[–]Canbot 2 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 0 fun3 insightful - 1 fun -  (3 children)

I think you know that is wild speculation. The blood is constantly getting replaced whether or not it has been extracted and used elsewhere. There are other ways of extending telomeres. The reason this therapy is suppressed has nothing to do with an honest assessment of the pros and the cons, or a valid ethical barrier. If anything it is unethical to not support it.

[–]Hematomato 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (2 children)

It's not wild speculation. This is what I did for ten years of my life. Our blood gets replaced through cell division. Human cells can only divide about 50 times. Every time they divide, their telomeres get shorter. And that is the reason we age.

So, if you do something to encourage rapid and recurring cell division (like repeated blood draws), you increase the rate of aging. It's pretty much that simple.

There are other ways of extending telomeres.

The particular article you linked to is a method that works in vitro but would never work in vivo.

That said, yes, there are other ways of extending telomeres - and currently, the most promising one is mRNA tech. My company spent six years looking for a drug that would fully de-repress telomerase. Honestly, I don't think it exists. But mRNA tech would almost certainly work.

Frankly, I think there's a very realistic chance that it's as simple as: take the COVID vaccine, swap out the COVID spike protein for hTERT, and you have the cure for aging. No need to suck the blood out of children ever again!

Cameras don't work in fog though. Lidar does.

[–]Canbot 2 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 0 fun3 insightful - 1 fun -  (1 child)

Cameras can be adjusted to see better in fog than human eyes.

[–]ID10T 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

Sure but not better than lidar

[–]weavilsatemyface 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (2 children)

Then Tesla revealed their system which runs on normal cameras and no lidar.

And that's one of the reasons why Tesla's self-driving capabilities are even more shit than all the other shit self-driving cars.

[–]Canbot 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (1 child)

I don't think that's true at all. And even if you could make a better one using lidar, cost is a huge factor. What matters is who can make the best financially viable system.

Oh, you don't think its true. Oh, well that me educated. Thanks for the in-depth explanation.

Most likely all of them.

My college roommate works in "the industry." He's not famous, but you've almost definitely seen his work.

Hollywood was interesting and dynamic back in the '50s and '60s. Even through the '90s. Now it's... not. Now it's a hive-mind of shallow, creatively bankrupt people trying to figure out how to get their dicks wet while also pretending to care deeply about #metoo and DEIA.

Right now, Hollywood is about as interesting as a corporate pre-meeting to plan the agenda for the actual meeting.

Something horrible happened to Heather O'Rourke, I'm certain of it.

[–]IAMANAnarchist[S] 2 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 0 fun3 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

OK, so I looked into this, and found a website called Crazy Day and Nights. I really hope what I read isn't true and she died of natural causes. Then I discovered Don Henly through same website. Now I have to spend the rest of the night watching videos of animals killing humans just to feel some justice.

Well yeah, she became ill with giardiasis from drinking contaminated well-water, then came down with Crohn's disease, was treated with cortisone which is really rough on the body, then she had a cardiac arrest caused by stenosis of the intestine and septic shock.

Sounds all pretty horrible to me.

After all the insane shit I have seen the human brain come up with over the years cult after cult and diet after diet and hack after hack ..... nothing surprises me now. God damn cannibals, junkies, flunkies, stealers, killers etc ..... weirdos who abduct women and feed them to each other. Lefties who are living a self induced nightmare of denial and Right wingers giving their life to a middle eastern god. Shit ....

I like the site https://vigilantcitizen.com/ even though I don't necessary think everything they report on is true, it's wild to see how they tie things together.

The one where masculine men in Hollywood have to appear in public in drag, typically wearing a dress, in order to appease the rainbow mafia and not get kicked out of Hollywood. Men like Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson and Bruce Willis. Someone big in Hollywood, like James Woods or someone, went on Joe Rogan and said it. Katt Williams apparently called it out, too.

This goes way back; like I first heard about it in 2010-2011, but when I saw the collage image of all the supposedly "straight" men in Hollywood who wore dresses, there was some smoke to that fire. I can't even find the original collage anymore.

Even Reddit fags were talking about it. ("Fags" in the spineless weak beta-men, sense.)

I like the link you give that includes three scottish men wearing kilts. And you think this is some big conspiracy. Scottish. Men. In. Kilts. 🙄

Actors like to show off and get attention. Wearing a man-skirt will get attention.

Actors often do comedies. Putting a man in drag is an easy way to get some cheap laughs. Sometimes very cheap.

This goes way back; like 2010-2011

Fourteen years is "way back"? Are you six?

Straight macho men dressing up in drag for shits and giggles goes back to at least the 70s and probably even more, and has nothing to do with the rainbow mafia. It was particularly popular as an end of year celebration for footballers.

There is a long and honorable tradition of cross-dressing in film and plays going back to the ancient Greeks (who did not allow women to act on stage). In the twentieth century, long before gay liberation, Sir Alec Guinness played Lady Agatha D'Ascoyne in the 1949 movie "Kind Hearts and Coronets". Possibly the oldest examples in 20th century western cinema are Charlie Chaplain, who played "wife" in the silent movie "A Busy Day" (1914) and Wallace Beery who played the female character of "Sweedie" in the series of the same name.
