What's the latest on bloodboys?

That is : periodic blood transfusion from healthy young vegan donor.

It works very well. Rejuvenates ancient billionaires.

Surely it's superpopular among the oligarchs. Probably not the kind of thing you want in the news (vampires!).

It's so strange to me that is is legal in the US when prostitution isn't(in most states).

Not that I think prostitution should be illegal, but it's basically the same thing.


You are talking about a country that you can drive when you are 16 but drink when you are 21, and buy a rifle but not a kinder egg.

Yeah :)


Good catch


He's referring to an apparent ubiquitous progressive corruption. Individual and social.


It's a meme. But that aside, two groups can both do bad things.


As evil goes it's pretty mild.

It could be much worse. The bloodboy might pursue a career in advertising.
