It could have been that he was a selfish person who did the most selfish thing and ducked out before he had to deal with the consequences of his actions.

The files are a big deal. He knew the gig was over, too high profile to hang out with Bill Gates, considers himself too good for anything else and he offed himself.

... and while I'd like to believe that, they fucking erased the tapes and had guards go off shift during that time, I mean, it's straight out of the Kremlin playbook. An obvious accident.

They could have at least gone with the American playbook and just gave him a heart attack.

    I believe this is how the Republicans kept Gary Johnson (the legitimate candidate in that case) off the ballot in Michigan years ago. They are just copying that playbook.

    I see no one here has ever had to pit stop in Gary Indiana. Or pass through Flint?

    Harrisonburg PA surprised me a bit as well. Super industrial parts were Flint esq from what I remember and the vibe downtown felt just off.

    I have had no issues in Detroit, Chicago, Baltimore, or Cleveland. I think Cleveland gets a bad rap but I haven't spent more than a few days there.

    Don't worry fam, I have a guaranteed, proven, 3step plan to get your research funded.

    Step 1: Create shell company.

    Step 2: Create and market protein building protein bars with the ability to "create a compound interest effect" on your protein receptor cells.

    Step 3: After company either makes money, is sued, or some combination of both, use the hype to generate interest in your theory as a new "longevity therapy that conventional science doesn't understand" and get the idiots that bought your protein bars to fund the actual research.

    The plan is essentially guaranteed to work when it does.
