I don’t know how this Pope happened. It feels slightly miraculous.
8th station: Mothers weep for their children "imprisoned during protests, deported by policies devoid of compassion, shipwrecked on desperate journeys of hope, killed in war zones, & wiped out in death camps."
Grant us, Lord, a maternal heart & tears of compassion.

Over here in America most people think that the Irish led a big race riot in Belfast. (Because what’s what they’re being told on social media here). Many of the commentators here are so ignorant they believe it themselves.

“Shut up, traitorous appeaser. You will pay the price eventually. Tick f***ing tock.” Online posts this week called for my execution, my home to be burnt down & my kids hurt. The far right want to freeze their critics into silence. They will never win.

Carney: The new world order will be built from Europe. Canada is the most European of non-European countries, and we are transforming our cooperation with the EU ... In a more dangerous and divided world, Canada has chosen to build and work in partnership with Europe.

Speaking as a former pool operator. Painting the bottom of a shallow pool exposed to direct sunlight that's surrounded by trees dark blue simply creates the perfect conditions for algae to bloom lmao.
This is the perfect exemplar for Trumps presidency.

The swamp is no longer a metaphor.
Community note
This image is nearly 14 years old, extracted from a news piece filmed in 2012 by NBC, documenting algae issues the Reflecting Pool was facing at that time.

“A backlash is building, and it will become fiercer when voters learn that a handful of billionaires are altogether spending nine figures, apparently in an effort to try to stop debates about AI regulation from further developing.”

Mark Zuckerberg has severe AI psychosis. He has fully bought in to the idea that humans are just a stepping stone to superintelligent AI and is in the process of destroying his company to try and extract intelligence from his own employees.
This is genuinely sick. Meta is toast.
