      I took it to mean the opposite. I took it to mean they re-opened the island while learning nothing or changing nothing.

      It’s like Jurassic Park. Except instead of dinosaurs eating background characters, they have wealthy people raping children.

      And I guess they’re going again.

    The ranch was valued for tax purposes at $21.1 million for tax year 2023, but San Rafael Ranch LLC protested, arguing in part that the “notoriety” of the property and the sales price justified a lower valuation, and thus, lower taxes, according to The New Mexican. The Santa Fe County assessor later valued the property at $13.4 million for tax year 2023. The following year, it was renamed from 49 Zorro Ranch Road to 49 Rancho San Rafael Road.

      That’s an impressive strategy. “You should lower my taxes. I’m just a truly awful person doing nightmarish things at my property. It might as well be native burial ground with all the cursed things I’ve done and buried across my property. We all know what the previous owner did, we know what I’m planning to do, so let’s just get ahead of this thing and all admit that the haunted tales of my actions would make Clive Barker cry, and gimme that sweet sweet tax break as a consolation prize for being worse than any monster described in any media ever.”

    So this dude has 100% been bleeching the hallways, erasing all the especially hidden secondary recording devices and excavating and disintegrating the bodies in acid, huh?

      Rich people don’t need to do things like bleaching hallways, they can just have everything ripped out and replaced.

      My bet? Shit’s exactly the same as it always was, cuz these people don’t feel like they’ll be held accountable.
