Bryan Johnson, 45, is shocking his, uhm, Johnson in hopes of never dying? Did I get that right?


Bryan Johnson, the 45-year-old man whose pursuit of eternal youth has driven him to swap blood with his 17-year-old son, is directing his attention below the belt. His belt, to be specific. Tomorrow he will start getting Alprostadil injected into his penis as a part of his “penis rejuvenation” journey. That’s right: Johnson is trying to rejuvenate his Johnson. Godspeed, I suppose.

According to the Mayo Clinic, Alprostadil is used to treat erectile dysfunction, Johnson says he’s using it to increase “ejaculation vol[ume]” and “max urination speed” as well. I’m sorry to have to inform you that this man is also getting his “penis plaque” checked, which is apparently scar tissue or something that could slow down the speed of things coming out of his dick. I suppose it makes sense that a man so occupied with the passage of time is concerned with urinating as quickly as possible. He’s got to get back to taking 61 pills a day and eating 70 pounds of vegetables a month. Looking that spooky is a full-time job!

Johnson shared his goal on Instagram to increase the length and hardness of his nighttime erections from 2 hours and 12 minutes to 3 hours and 30 minutes, the latter of which is the average noctural erection time of an 18-year-old. Also, for full transparency, I’m just taking Johnson’s word for that. I don’t quite have it in me to Google “18-year-old nocturnal erections” on my work (or personal) laptop.

Johnson’s penile rejuvenation therapy also involves sending shockwaves into his genitals. Medical professionals explained to Rolling Stone that these electro shockwaves “rejuvenate” the penis, similar to how weightlifting causes small tears in bodily tissue that then cause the body to regenerate new tissue.

Is this more information than you want to know about a man who looks like the spiritual lovechild of the Morpheus and Legolas? I apologize. It’s more than I want to know, too. But unfortunately I am sadistically fascinated with this rich man who’s desperately trying to avoid the natural aging process by injecting himself with supplements and literally shocking his penis.

I suppose it makes sense that Johnson has refocused his youthful obsession onto his own genitals, as that seems to be at the center of a lot of men’s passions.

    https://open.spotify.com/episode/72XYcDijP8xcIXjW9ubvfx?si=f-LcfaY7Scy0PyBvlHas_Q Really funny podcast with a bunch of queers riffing on this ghoul’s “blueprint” routine. I personally lost my shit when he said he has an estradiol patch.

      trans women really are special. immortal goddesses of youth, and must be banned from chess and physical sports because we are smarter, faster, stronger, taller, and have the healthiest bones

      now men are taking hormones to be like us

        They cannot even begin to approach our power! This podcast nearly had me doubled over when they were speculating that this ghoul might be the most closeted trans person to ever live and this eternal youth stuff was really fucked up gender dysphoria.

            You seem to be nonstop thinking about trans people more than trans people typically think about trans people.

                Your concern trolling game is weak.

                Again, your fixation on trans people has nothing to do with this thread but you brought it yourself. Your preoccupation is loud and kind of sad.

                nice long stay in the psych ward

                Your fixation on trans people, that has nothing to do with this thread but you brought it yourself is so very very normal. The normalest.
