It's rumored that the neurosurgery Scott Adams had in 2008 changed his personality.
Congratulations to the surgeons for the first successful dog to human brain transplant
WHY?
What was the point of that experimental surgery to begin with? I know engineer brain is a helluva drug, but what was he trying to accomplish?
Around the same time, Adams said, he was making up to $1 million annually from public speaking, charging up to $100,000 per speech, until in 2005 he suddenly lost the ability to talk with other people. The mysterious condition is known as voice dystonia. While Adams could still speak normally to himself and to his cat, and he could even sing and recite memorized poems, he could no longer have conversations. “I think that’s what led to the end of my marriage,” he told me. “Losing the ability to speak made me feel like a ghost. It was incredibly lonely.” The inexplicable condition, which doctors attributed to a possible mental condition, persisted for three years. Then Adams underwent an experimental surgery that involved cutting nerves that lead from the brain to the vocal cords and building a new path using nerves from elsewhere in the neck. A few months later, his voice returned.
That gives me some sympathy for his situation back then. Too bad he became a nazi afterward if he already wasn't one.
I would be weary of trusting this guy with anything he says. He's always been kinda crazy and I can easily see him convince himself he had this condition, or decide to feign it for whatever reason.
That's legitimately horrifying to me. I spend so much time talking, and all of my relationships rest on what I say. The idea of silent companionship just doesn't work for me. It doesn't excuse him, don't get me wrong, but I can understand developing really really odd views after something like that.
Sure, but you could also try to learn sign language or to write, as plenty of people do. Verbal communication is nice, but there are options. That said I do understand that if you are sick you might not be able to pursue them yourself.
However if you are as rich as that fuck that isn't an excuse. You only need a window of being okay to assign a couple ten ks to it for support.
Man thwarts god's will, turns crazy Trumper. Coincidence, I think not.
publicly announcing that your aren't planning to kill yourself is such a hilarious way to feel tough and important online
Unless you're John McAfee, in which case you announce it immediately before offing yourself just to fuck with people
Is he dead? Last I heard about him he was doing naval combat on his yacht.
If hes dead then i have a new bit idea. Dig up McAfee's corpse and turn it into a skin suit. Then, while wearing it, go on a massive social media rampage so people think he's still alive.
Given we're talking about McAfee, I'd refrain from "definitely" and say 98% sure he's dead
McAfee could pull it off because people don't really care about him. We care about you, though
It's a funny and absurd thought comrade, but I promise it wouldn't be funny at all.
The funniest thing about this phrase is that 99% of the people saying it are so privileged and nonthreatening to the system that no one would even assassinate them even if it was free and 100% undetectable. Just a bunch of main characters.
Most likely outcome:
he's stockpiling weaponsHe thinks insulting liberals on social media is gonna cause them to Gestapo him
What are the chances this dude got a death threat in a twitter DM and now thinks the government is out to get him
His ideas are completely inline with the state. Wtf could he have possibly done?
He is the kind of person that has extreme delusions of grandeur, I doubt there is anything to this at all. Right wingers love to think they're subversive.
Possibly, but I was referring to (cw self-harm)
spoiler
him making a big show of saying he's not suicidal and the government is after him, and then killing himself.
CW: Suicide

McAfee killed himself to avoid prison, but before doing so he claimed people were out to get him so he could make his death mysterious instead of sad.
John McAfee went to Belize, took over a town with his private army, and also fucked a whale i think.
He un-lived himself to keep from having to make good on a bet where he was going to have to eat his own penis if he lost.
He did a whole bunch of pyrovalerones, mostly a-pvp and mdpv iirc. A rather cursed class of drugs known for blending the worst aspects of meth and crack, causing extreme hypersexuality and paranoia, and smelling like cum
At this point I’ve gotten several different outrageous answers and I’m not sure which is true or if all of them are true. I’m choosing to believe it’s all of them
I can't give you details, but this is a good time to tell you that instead of a brain there's just an extra butthole where the brain usually goes
He wouldn't get asylum, as he lacks the threat to his body. Being so rich that you can move to pretty much any country and live there forever isn't asylum.
I suspect that that solipsistic cryptofascist creep is going to be cruising for a harem in a sexpat-exploited part of the world very soon.
