has anti aging research actually accomplished anything or is the entire field a grift?
This is tangential, but there's a surprisingly interesting article about penis enlargement from ProPublica. It's sobering to see people who've convinced themselves it must have worked, because it's too horrible to consider whether they actually made things worse. If there are any crazy, invasive age therapies out there, maybe there'd be similar themes.

CW, if you are male, maybe skip the part where the actual implant procedure is described. Starting with the sentence "With a purple marker,"
But then you'll never find out what like a jellyfish surfacing at sea is in reference to.
