The Pope tweets: "The poor are not there by chance or by blind and cruel fate. Nor, for most of them, is poverty a choice. Yet, there are those who still presume to make this claim, thus revealing their own blindness and cruelty. #DilexiTe"

Someone replies: "I was so hopeful I could be a Catholic again after the disaster that Francis was, guess we just get Francis 2.0 now and I am heartbroken.  How do I stay a Catholic now...I don't want to lose faith but I am. You belong to someone else, not God."

This is a fantastic point I had not considered before. The _act_ of writing is the actual practice, not the end-result. The refining of so much you do happens in the dialogue you have with the page.

Captain: I'm really nervous about giving this speech.

For those asking why:

This launch would have been detected by the US in real-time. It could have looked to us like Russia was nuking Kyiv.

Russia wanted to make sure we didn’t jump to that conclusion and attack them.

Imagine rotor wash from apaches synchronizing pressure waves upon your chest to the beating of a heart elevated by spectacle as you imbibe gasoline vapor. On that day, at that track, the world is perfect. You are the most powerful thing that has ever existed. You are an American in 1992.

Three Michelin reviewers (above) unmasked. Note the cigars in the mouths of the heads. These were removable while dining, but the cigars allowed the reviewers to blend in in fine dining establishments all over France, in the days when people smoked in restaurants.

Six top reviewers setting out to dine anonymously.

Differences of opinion between Michelin reviewers were always settled the old fashioned way.

The Michelin stars for fancy restaurants are handed out by Michelin reviewers. In order that the restaurant does not know that they have a Michelin reviewer dining with them that night the traditional French way of covering this up is for the Michelin reviewers to become anonymous.
