@BenedictSpence Who's the woman in the background who looks to be shitting herself?

"Deeply disappointed."

How does anyone think this is the language of a serious man? Of any kind of man?

[Catholic Church @catholicEW]

Archbishop John Sherrington, Lead Bishop for Life Issues for the Catholic Bishops’ Conference of England and Wales, has expressed his deep disappointment that the Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill will return to parliament in autumn. https://t.co/achmugzRXB

Vice President JD Vance hanging out with Pope Leo’s brother, the Holy Uncle, at the UFC Freedom 250 Fight Night at the White House.

This is the greatest timeline in human history.

Our Culture Has Forgotten a Child Is a Gift From God

It is a paradox of human nature that we undervalue what is priceless and overvalue what is worthless.⬇️

Necessary but not sufficient.

@edgarjbb_ It killed me that in the past six months our younger daughter went from "mulk" and "aminal" to "milk" and "animal."

@yuanyi_z Remember that for people on the progressive left, "conversation" means "we're going to talk about this until we get what we want."

@Vermeullarmine From your keyboard to God's screen.

@_CLancellotti @PAHoyeck I had math major students like this: for them the only real questions were the ones with a mathematical answer. Psychopaths, the lot of them.

@20committee Please, explain the hostility? Her determinism? Her reductionism? Both? Something else? All of the above?

[David Lyons @LyonsRoarrior]

@_CLancellotti @JaycelAdkins ZING!

Mike Pence is just 1985 in human form ... the American equivalent of some geriatric poseur the BBC drags in to discuss why Margaret Thatcher would be into Trans ... the audiobook version probably has Duran Duran and Tears For Fears playing in the background

[Carlo Lancellotti @_CLancellotti]

For a certain type of US right-winger: both the USSR and the NDSAP were roughly as "socialist" as the Holy Roman Empire was "roman." It is called name appropriation, it does not reflect real history.

“It is difficult for the father of a family not to regard as a personal enemy the author of a bad book that brings corruption into the hearts of his children.”

@Ne_pas_couvrir The look on her face really needs to be introduced to law enforcement.

[David Lyons @LyonsRoarrior]

@GrayConnolly I fear that as long as bishops are selected primarily for their embrace of the norms of modern bureaucracy, far too many of the Church's problems will endure. But, yes, at least the liturgy will become worthy of the name.

[David Lyons @LyonsRoarrior]

@_CLancellotti No, unfortunately you do.

Kaja Kallas might be one of the best examples of how unelite our supposed elites have become. She embodies the spirit of HR girlbossery. Below is a link to some of her old book reviews. Let's just say she'd have been better off not reading anything at all.
