Do you really expect Stephen Miller to drink what, water?
Amazed that no one has mentioned Peter Thiel yet!
"If there’s one thing that really excites Thiel, it’s the prospect of having younger people’s blood transfused into his own veins."

@cakemonster @molly0xfff I thought they'd finally stopped doing that a while back, but when I went looking for when, it turns out at least in the USA it was more recent than I thought...but the ban had been an FDA rule, and the Red Cross was one of the organizations that had been pushing to change it:

They've clearly aligned their messaging with the times!
"The need for blood is unchanging. Your need, that is. You have very nice blood. Would be a shame if something... happened to it."
FEEEED MEEEE
