my first piece for The Atlantic. i will be providing more incisive commentary like this, when called upon to do so.

This moment still goes so incredibly hard

I’m not normally one to share betting tips, but my two current frontrunners in the event of a Pope-off are: Cardinal Pizzaballa, who if he doesn’t pick Papa John as his papal name has frankly missed a trick. Cardinal Ambongo, who as he comes from the Congo, already has his own papal theme tune.
