From his textbook “Evolutionary Dynamics: Exploring The Equations of Life.” In the last sentence of the preface, after a couple dozen acknowledgements that are literally just a list of names, he has one last special thanks that gets its own paragraph:

    really impressed with the constant stream of high profile people that knew this was coming, having seen countless other epstein associates fall… but still just stayed in their public high profile roles.

    like… you could have got out ahead of this… or better yet faded into obscurity, changed your name and move to SE asia… but nope.

    guess if you are fucked in the head enough to associate with pedo’s you are fucked in the head enough to put up with this 🤷

      Why would he? The worst thing that has happened to him is that he’s getting a paid vacation.

      Pretty sure they have social connections they don’t want to cut. Like e.g. friends or… you know… a family.
