Sinners (2025)

good 🧵

our guide to papal possibilities (with a guest appearance by my dad, who worked with Francis quite closely) foreignpolicy.com/2025/04/21/c...

you can find things to quibble with in every Francis piece, but I picked this one to share because I feel like everything everyone is saying about him boils down to this: he was a Jesuit, through & through. I'll remember the times he made the church feel just a little bit bigger, if not big enough.

To make a serious point: What made Francis a good (in relative terms) Pope, was regret. He was vocal that he felt he had made mistakes during the Argentine Junta era. He was determined to do better. The best leaders accept their flaws and channel them to do better. He was a unique modern Pope.

Both Saints and Cardinals looking to trade up

this photo is every Father’s Day card ever published rolled into one

disciple 1: he’s alive! returned from the dead! disciple 2: did he roll away the stone? disciple 3: did he show you the holes in his hands? judas: did he uh. did he mention me

i mean, i don't know that it gets any clearer than this without the pope saying "you ain't shit. your crew ain't shit. and all of y'all are burning in hell."

I wonder how many times @darthbluesky.bsky.social has been tagged in this skeet. Probably not enough.

Kamala Harris: “he’s a fascist” Gen. Milley: “he’s a fascist” John Kelly: “he’s a fascist” Historians of fascism: “he’s a fascist” The NY/DC political media: “how did we all fail to see that Donald Trump was a fascist?”

Cat looks like he just called Drake a pedophile

I love that JD Vance rolled up to the Sistine Chapel with his family absolutely believing with every fiber of his being that the Pope would stop what he's doing to meet with him, but Francis was like "nah, but here's one of my cardinals instead to tell you what a moron you are."

My favorite tweet today. 💣

making it clear how normal and deserving of custody i am with my cool truck

frank you can still do it. there's still time. you can excommunicate the vice president of the united states

David Brooks is Communist Manifesto posting, Harvard is antifascist now, Bill Kristol is a Bernie Bro now, SCOTUS is releasing emergency panic judgments, Frank fucking Luntz is in the NYT today extolling the virtues of empathy. The era of Finding Out is a trip

Come for the Carl Reiner hair piece, stay for the Cher Bob Mackie costumes...or the Siegfried and Roy Baby White Tiger Carrying Trunk...or Liberace's Diner's Club card. Truly a staggering array of random television memorabilia.

I invented a new phone to help save time in the morning

lol at me just now not getting gas in Cedar Hills because it is $4.25/gal and I thought it would be cheaper in Troutdale, where I am now paying $4.29/gal.

As I was saying...Gale has to get her off the field at half. Dahlien is picking her apart.

Dahlien is stitching up Torpey pretty consistently. Don't think Torpey should last the half against her AND Biyendolo.

Ugh. I just turned the game on to see Seattle score. Sorry for the jinx Bella.

Everyone else just got done working, too, right?

I promise you I will be arrested for assault first if this ever happens at any event I'm at.

Who is responsible for tomorrow not being Friday? How has this week been 6 weeks long?

A film that takes place where you're from.

I don't remember the last time I was this emotionally invested

Something extremely on the nose about people using AI to turn themselves into packaged products

This is nearly every guy I come across walking the Tualatin Parks District trails. And based on the responses I get when I ask them to leash their dog, I've concluded it's an ego thing, that they need to feel smug and superior about their dog walking off-leash. Their dog is great. You/your dog suck.

He is a union apprentice and raising three special needs kids, two of them from his wife's previous relationships so yes he is certainly in the running.
