In his circles apparently HGH is viewed, erroneously, as a life extension drug. It wouldn't surprise me for an instant if he was mainlining it out of a fear of dying like a common peasant.

There ain’t a doubt in my that Elon is obsessed with life extension and is petrified of the end of his life. All the rich tech folks are that’s why they’ve spent so much trying to position themselves into being god kings and do t care about wrecking the planet. They think they’re about to ascend like this is FMA Brotherhood but it didn’t work out for the rich and powerful there either

Wants to live forever but is too lazy to hit the gym and too weak to leave the coke in the bag. He thinks that pumping hormones into his body is all he has to do.

At least that weirdo millionaire Bryan Johnson puts a ton of effort into his quest for longevity.

You'd think people who want to live forever would care more about the environment. But I guess the worst consequences they'll face is a shorter ski season.

They think they are going to go to space and become gods. It'd be pathetic if we werent all gonna pay the price for it

The Larry Ellison Medical Foundation has invested heavily in life extension research

Exactly this! I was about to post that it looks like he has a distended GH gut but never worked out a day in his life. Exogenous testosterone doesn't do this.
