McCarrick gave a homily at my parish right after Francis was instated, all about how he and his friends had been working on getting Bergoglio into the papacy for years and how happy he was that those efforts had finally paid off.

I think this is the core problem right now. Benedict ceded his duties of spiritual fatherhood and Bergoglio doesn't have the authority to take his place.

Out Lady of Guadelupe, literally the most popular image of Mary in Catholicism, looks Aztec. Our Lady of La Vang looks Vietnamese. Our Lady of Antipolo looks Filipino. Our Lady of Vailankanni looks Indian.

Christ died for everybody. So long as it's done with reverence, you can depict Him any way you like.

What do you mean? I thought that game was one of the least SJW games I'd played in a long time...

Anyone remember that weird fake girl group that made the pro-Beto song? This is so much better.

You don't have to be a fan to appreciate the fact that they were the last real architecture movement before the modernists and brutalists shit the bed.

Like, I can't stand Queen, but I acknowledge that Freddy Mercury was a genius.

That right there is one of the greatest things Trump has ever done. New construction like the African American History Museum is a blight on the DC landscape.

God, yes. The Pre-Raphaelites were the last true artists and art deco was the last real architecture.

When I pick up a book, I don't research the author first. I don't look at their picture, I don't read their bio, I just read the book. And then, if I like it, I look up who the author is and what else they've written.

The racial makeup of my reading list is entirely due to merit. If there aren't enough black people on that list, that sounds like their problem, not mine.

We're in a hotel on the Chesapeake Bay tonight (no way we were staying in DC tonight) and all the bars were absolutely packed with 50 year old bikers and beach bums who weren't in masks.

It's Heaven.

Gun range near me has raised prices on handgun ammo because of shortages.

What adorable little scamps. My auntie was from Brooklyn and she had hundreds of stories of shit like this from her childhood. Nice to see New York isn't completely fucked over.

Uggggh. But I don't wanna. I want them to grovel.

Thanks. This was the reminder I needed today.

And they're all in super safe areas too. Libs in Omaha suburbs telling me, a DC conservative, that it's "problematic" that I don't want rioters near my home.

The dude walks up and gets in the cop's face, the cop pushes him back, the dude loses his balance and goes down, next thing you know, dude is laying on the gound, not moving, with a puddle forming under his head.
