Y'all see the man hanging out of the spaceship with the really big gun? Now I'm not saying you weren't easy to find. It was kinda out of our way, and he didn't want to come in the first place. Man's lookin' to kill some folk. So really it's his will y'all should worry about thwarting.

That which does not kill you should RUN

Okay, he's Pope Leo XIV. He apparently was favored by Pope Francis as a successor, so hopefully he'll continue Francis's more progressive (for the Catholic Church) attitude.

He's 69 years old and a Chicagoan who also has Peruvian citizenship.

A USAmerican pope will not get me back to the church, but it's pretty cool nonetheless.

Where do you come from? Where do you go? What is your scene, baby? We just gotta know.

No Pizzaballa for you!

I'm a little disappointed by that.

I adore all you motherfuckers so much -- PMM.

I log in to tell everybody about my overnight adventures, and get immediately upstaged by a new Pope.

(Housemate -- the spouse of the one who was on TV -- had a kidney-stone attack a bit after midnight. We just got home from Kaiser about an hour ago. Everybody's fine, but we didn't get much sleep.)

Here's hoping the new Pope isn't a dickhead.

JD Vance has been a Catholic for less than six years, and he’s already been smacked down by TWO Popes.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

Wow, American pope. If he thinks JD Vance is a prick, that's good enough for me.

At least that connected to reality.
