God bless the 🇻🇦🇨🇭 Swiss Guards for their heroic sacrifice against...

..."Habsburg troops"...
Oh dear.

At this taqueria that someone recommended. The girl says, "How many tacos you want?" I was thrown. Usually an order has a set number like 2 or 3. The vertigo of being umbound. This is how Lazarus felt when the Lord said untie him and let him go.

This lovely explanation of the need for salvation *as a community* through the “integration” of the Gospel with “institutions” could just as well have been written by Leo XIII

[Catholic Sat @CatholicSat]

Incredible scenes as the orphans of the Ngul Zamba Orphanage in Yaoundé, Cameroon, sing the Magnificat in Latin to Pope Leo XIV, with the Pope himself joining in.

[Fr. David Trahan @caesius]

Pluperfect.

[Shane Donovan @SDDonovan]

Do you prefer reading books in present tense or past tense?

The Pope is deeply suspicious of thinking machines and believes in desert power

#ViaCrucis

[Eleanor Parker @ClerkofOxford]

The best of trees began to speak words:
'It was long ago – I remember it yet –
that I was cut down at the edge of a forest,
removed from my root.'

In the Anglo-Saxon poem 'The Dream of the Rood', the Cross recalls the Crucifixion: https://t.co/fbBEwcnTui

God's just cool like that.

He made sure everyone from the dawn of humanity got to see the interesting side of the moon.

😬 Location of 🇫🇷French aircraft carrier FS Charles de Gaulle given away by sailor using @Strava running app while jogging on the flight deck.

[Fr. David Trahan @caesius]

Had it landed on the church, I wonder if it would have been stuck there forever like the ladder.

[OSINTtechnical @Osinttechnical]

Fragments of an Iranian medium-range ballistic missile fell 30 feet away from the Church of the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem today, landing on a gift shop.

[Fr. David Trahan @caesius]

Ah yes. The Texan version of March.

[Fr. David Trahan @caesius]

As much as I appreciate Jackson being on the $20 (for the simple irony of remaining as such) whilst being *strongly* against a national bank, I rather approve Churchill taking his place for the greenback.

[Bloomberg @business]

Winston Churchill will soon disappear from UK banknotes, as the cigar-toting, wartime leader makes way for creatures like hedgehogs and badgers. After a public consultation, the next generation of pound notes will feature native British wildlife, according to the Bank of England. Read more: https://t.co/wr83znijIJ

This exchange reinforces my opinion that civil engineers should have a minimum experience of CivCity or City Skylines before being permitted to build anything (and international diplomatic individuals should have the same with CK3 or EUIV [because I haven’t figured out EUV yet]).
