it's so weird how Peter Thiel, like Glenn Greenwald, always looks bizarrely sweaty like he just survived a bad bout of diarrhea in a Vietnamese jungle and it's usually when on television, when you'd normally get powdered in the makeup chair

anyway, if you weren't aware, claiming all domestic opposition to techno fascism is a Chinese plot to harm AI innovation is a whole thing they're doing now

My guess is overuse of growth factor-based face products and treatments that thicken skin

I can't imagine he'd let anyone approach him with mysterious powders and sprays

Why do all of these freaks look like an Ivan Albright painting just rotting from the inside

Thiel does not present well. I might sympathize, but he's really not a very sympathetic person. It's a tic of some kind...the stammering, the sweat, the rolling eyes. And then you listen to what he's trying to say and omg! He's stark raving mad!!

Do you want to let the man with functionally infinite financial resources, a huge network of powerful friends and a history of personally murdering people know, to his face, that he looks like a fucking freak? Nope, you'll say "Looking good, sir" and then get the fuck out quickly.

"I can no longer sit back and allow Communist infiltration, Communist indoctrination, Communist subversion and the international Communist conspiracy to sap and impurify all of our precious bodily fluids." - Peter Thiel, probably.

Genuinely curious what whatever drug cocktail all these guys are on does to your looks, like they are all speed running Frankenstein’s Monster Face in an attempt to look cartoonishly and unattractively ripped

They are almost using an insane amount of illegal or sketch ass prescribed drugs by some sketch ass MD I would guess. Who knows what their drug cocktails are doing to their physiology on top of cooking their brains and thought processes.

These shows make him late getting back for his hourly transfusion of the blood of unblemished aryan virgins, thus interfering with his immortality program.

Hmm... wonder what it could be. Something that makes you delusional, gaunt, and sweaty. Hmm.

He seriously looks like he pays for human meat.

One of the Bond villains in Die Another Day undergoes some made up radical gene therapy thing and says a side effect is that he can’t sleep and I feel like that’s part of what’s going on with Thiel. Dude looks like he hasn’t slept in a decade.
