Sure didn’t see this one coming, ironically. Before the pope had passed away I commented this on another post.

Bet the poor Pope couldn’t even attend because in addition to his health issues he must have felt the evil pressure oozing from Vance.

Welp, poor Francis. He was a good one, and difficult to replace especially in these uncertain times.

The silver lining is that he really made his last big act in life to admonish Vance, and by extension the Trump admin, about their wrongdoing. He has my gratitude for that.

I mean… His headache will surely end, forever, as will all other sources of pain…

Now you, lady… Depending on your personality and surrounding environment, I’m not as sure. Some headaches are inflicted. Others are chronically self-inflicted.

Sometimes I look at the politicians from my country, and think to myself “gosh, what a bunch of sleezebags. Even I could do a better job”. And then I see this and come back to reality.

I mean, my politicians are still sleezebags, but not at this level, and that doesn’t necessarily correlate to my ability to actually do better than them with no actual experience.

These folks are the me that didn’t stop at intrusive thoughts. Who thought that just because they were raised on silver spoons and bailed out at every blunder they knew better.

Europe accepts its sons and daughters of long ago. Specially the talented ones who contributed to empowering science in the US.

Not the Drumpf family, tho. Those can stay there instead of returning to their roots in Germany. The last thing we want is a “Make Germany Great Again” movement - they’re already great right now, no need to fix what’s not broken, thank you.

I get to be the favorite of pretty much all the family pets. Always been.

Some family and friends joke that I probably could go to an African safari and the lions wouldn’t harm me. Not really rushing to find out if it’s true tho.
