Note

While the news is concerning, it seems Daily Galaxy had all the hallmarks of a content mill aping more legit sources. I had no idea because I follow a lot of RSS feeds and this had been sitting there for a while now. I choose it for the science stuff. Sorry. I honestly wasn’t aware.

    Probably not this one specifically because there’s several rich Epsteinite islands in the bay.

    But that house on the lower left looks EXACTLY like Diaz’s mansion.
