I don't know why these dudes want to look like they're choking on a shovel.

I keep hearing the term looksmaxer and every time it's a person that looks like they were hit with a snow shovel repeatedly.

Looksmaxxing is just a new name for body dysmorphia. The same shit that makes people puke their guts out after eating, or getting plastic surgery done over and over until they look like freaks.

How the hell you’d inject gold?

The problem with all of these other influencers backing the claim that he'd become "supernatural" before his death will only keep the door open for other followers to copy this lifestyle, just believing this idiot just did something wrong that they can correct. So dangerous.

People are so worried about women and body dysmorphia, but we should remember that men need help with dysmorphia too.

I didn’t know who this guy was before he died, but I read an article about things he was doing and saying. He was not okay. It seems like he was suffering from some kind of paranoia as much as dysmorphia.

So either he always had some mental health issues, or the lack of nutrition he did to keep the body he had lead himself to make very bad decisions because his brain couldnt process correctly anymore.

Guy read too much Sanderson. Was trying to steal hybrid feruchemical powers

“Up until his passing, he was discovering that he had achieved some superhuman abilities, and it’s no joke; he actually did achieve some superhuman abilities,” he said. “He had tapped into a level of consciousness that most people never will.”

Another looksmaxxing influencer, Androgenic, offered additional claims during a livestream, saying Murphy became increasingly focused on gold.

“He started to get this fixation on gold. He started to believe that gold was some gatekept mineral by the higher-ups that basically gives you special powers if you ingest it,” he said. According to Androgenic, Murphy later began injecting gold into his body.

Just so we are all clear, the trans community super duper does not claim him. Wish the political right would focus more on this sort of self abuse instead of the verified science supporting medical transition.

His artificial hairline looks worse than if he were bald. And wtf is going on with his jaw?

Some problems solve themselves.

Deathmaxxing!

He's going to be a strong contender for this year's Darwin Award!

Did it work??

We’re in the “The Beautiful Ones” part of the collapse of our little mouse utopia.

I nominate Connor Murphy for a Darwin award: https://darwinawards.com/darwin/

Conservatives have spent the last 50 years devaluing education. This is the result.

From the article it sounds like he has a friend who genuinely believes that he was gaining superhuman powers too. So... clocks ticking on that guy now.

Did this toolbag think he was an Allomancer or Mistborn? Brandon Sanderson's works are too dangerous! BAN SANDERSON NOVELS!

/s just in case...

I really want to know what "science" he was banking on here. Like, how does this injection work, according to him? I assume he chose gold (as opposed to lead or tin) because he has gawdy Trumpesque notions of success and opulence, but what the fuck does injecting it do (again, according to him)? 🤔

Its almost as if this looksmaxing and other social media shit is a kind of mental illness that gets worse with time. especially when they find an audience that encourages them to go even further off the deep end.
