Please try to distance yourself from this shit-show Sierra. A male narc is capable of a great many inexplicable things and you're too important to the world to be affected by this, however tangentially.

Angry man emasculates self. Needs truck to...what? Restore manhood? Drive off a cliff? Don't give him another thought, he's crazy. Nothing you can do.

It does make me wonder if the Canadian MAiD echelons will tell him, no, you're having too much of a good time putting others in a distressing position. Somehow, for me, it does not bring up the panic I had when my "trans" then-husband was threatening suicide. The problem I see is the social contagion aspect, and would detransitioners doing this en masse actually throw some shame on the Canadian gender industry?

He's wrong Suicide is the ULTIMATE in self harm, whether by your own hand or via MAID.

That's not to say that suicide is *never* the right choice for someone. Sometimes suicide *can* be the right answer, but it is only that very, very rarely and it's not the answer for him. He has hope. He has a future. He can communicate.

For some people there really are things much worse than death. For me that would be dementia.

This reminds me of Meghan Markle’s “suicide” threat (as told to Oprah, Harry’s book, Netflix series, etc.), look how the Duchess has been able to work that angle! $$$$$$$$ and she’s living the rich life in California.

Truly, this is a manipulative shit-show, let Benjamin Boyce and the Canadian government deal with it.

"a mind-altering substance called attention" - Status is a hulluva drug. An heuristic older and more powerful than money.

I interacted briefly with this man on Twitter a few weeks ago when he posted about his dog dying. I didn’t even realize he was trans-identifying, I just saw a viral tweet about a dog and responded. But then I read more of his tweets on the subject and my blood ran cold. I could feel the narcissism through my phone. I was repulsed to realize he never gave a damn about the dog and was just leveraging the tragedy (which was partly brought on by his own negligence, frankly) for narcissistic supply.

I honestly don’t understand why anyone actually cares about him: I guarantee you he doesn’t care about his so-called friends! With the world hurtling towards total apocalypse I couldn’t give less of a shit about this person. The only thing that seems noteworthy about this scenario is that he’s shedding light on the disastrous lack of ethical oversight in MAIDs, and of course he may inspire copycats to seek state-assisted suicide if he gets the kind of attention he’s seeking.

I'm just not convinced and haven't been that he's not playing a game. I'm not on Twitter so I don't see all of it. As for physician assisted suicide: Lou Gehrig's disease would be hell.

It's pure manipulation and control for this man.

Plenty of teenagers on TikTok are doing this exact same thing

I have clearly missed an episode or six as I have spent the second half of January dealing with elderly parent issues including my mother who was literally at death's door and being given palliative care when she managed to turn a corner and revive. I listened to the nurse and doctor's explanation of DNR and have had to process death once before it was weirdly reversed five hours later. I have nevrt had any patience for the antics of physically healthy young people who use death as a way to emotionally bludgeon people into doing what they want. I have even less time now. You cannot help these types and trying to is to play their sick game for their own pleasure and your own detriment. The fact this creep is happily wallowing in the idea of maid, is using it to extort goods and services from randoms and tagging companies says to me his motivation isn't anything but greed and grift. He knows psychologically normal ppl are easily moved by proclamations of suicidal ideation. But here is the thing - most ppl who are really suicidal don't announce it to an audience and dance in the ashes of their grief. They just quietly suffer and do it. And few ever know why. Sometimes nobody in their life knows why. It's horrifying and watching idiots use it as self enriching entertainment is enraging.

Am I a bad person for not giving a shit about this guy either way?

He cares nothing for the millions of people deeply traumatised by suicide.

To fucking hell with him, and I wish he'd go quietly.

Directed donation is legal in Oregon, as is death with dignity. If she wants to do this she should give me her kidney. I am thinking about making a Twitter just to ask her. I'd like lucky lefty please.
