I looked at a few of them and I haven't been able to sleep properly since. It's hard to talk about it, and hard to convince people that I haven't completely lost my mind. It sounds so completely outlandish, and the more you see, the worse it gets. The journal (you prob know the one) broke me.

Currently, the outrage to the visible contents of the Epstein files is so mild that I have to think the majority of people just aren't even casually checking them. I can't think of a phrase to describe what I've read even as a forensic analyst. "Cartoonishly evil" is too gentle. Horrific. Inhuman.

If the nice Vietnamese lady at the salon can fix my acrylic nail without evidence of a break in 10 minutes, I think a spy agency can defeat your sparkle nail polish. Not a reason to not do it, but TMYK.
