Shoutout McDonald’s for having locations without changing stations in either their men’s or women’s bathrooms. Really helpful.

A pope from the Midwest, or as I like to call him…

P-Ope! Leo XIV

Even though it’s a completely practical thing to do at an outdoor mass, I always feel weird seeing vested priests wearing sunglasses.

Well, EWTN is really getting the most out of the commercial breaks on their YouTube channel.

As a church worker, I’m caught between feelings of mourning for Pope Francis and the anxiety that comes from the planning and rescheduling that must be done in his passing much like arranging your parent’s funeral. I suppose it’s only appropriate for the Holy Father.

Today’s New York Times Mini Crossword was an interesting way to find out that Joel Fagliano doesn’t know the difference between suspenders and overalls.

All these rappers are making songs about how many haters they have. Where are all the songs about how many *friends* they have?

Do people know that the $100 bill is blue now and has been for over a decade?

All that insane stuff and there’s then a trampoline you can buy at Sam’s Club

Am I watching the game? No

I started 2024 by becoming a father. Now I end it with this.

2025 come at me.

@pftompkins.bsky.social just dove into this morning’s first CBB best of. To answer your question about Conclave:
