Previously an affectionately satirical account about the Bishop of Rome and the Vatican: now on hiatus, or something. Pray for the pope, ok?

On the road to Coober Pedy with a Vatican delegation. I’m introducing them to Slim Dusty’s ‘a pub with no beer’
“The humanities are useless” is propaganda, designed to discourage young people from pursuing careers in literature and the arts because those careers are vital to a flourishing society. We’re reaping the results with a public that is compliant and ill-informed, as was intended.
Woah.
"Social media often shows an incomplete picture of faith. Living the Gospel doesn’t require cameras or podcasts; it requires fidelity when no one is watching. And it is precisely here, in the unseen and unshared moments, that many beloved influencers have stumbled."
The rise of the Catholic influencer has helped shaped faith around the world, and has opened new doors for evangelization once thought impossible. However, @joepeach6 writes that there's also a dark side to the Church's intersection with social media. blackcatholicmessenger.org/catholic-influ…

Together, we will rebuild the credibility of a wounded Church, sent to a wounded humanity, within a wounded creation. We are not yet perfect, but we must be credible: our lives must be transparent, visible, and credible!
WaPo asked me for my hopes for the new papacy, so, in American terms for an American pope: Holy Father, TEAR DOWN THESE MOSAICS.
breathlessly waiting this morning for the New Zealand Herald to get some dude to write 600 words on what the new pope means for the Catholic Church in New Zealand
"New pope moves into traditional papal dwelling, a return to the norm after Francis eschewed this for modest apartments. This signals Leo's desire to steer a conservative path however the chasuble he wore was made in Milan diocese noted for its liberalism- SHUT UP I CANT STAND IT
