WH briefing today. Q. Does the President intend to permanently cut off funding to NGOs that are bringing illegal foreign nationals to the country such as Catholic Charities? A. I am actually quite certain that the president signed an executive order that did just that, and I can point you to that.

At a local parish.

My wife, who I cherish, was telling me that there's a hybrid between skiing and snowboarding akin (as she described it) to ice skating down a mountain. My wife, who is not the most... coordinated, suggested she might like to try it. I suggested I would put her in an insane asylum first.

Happy First Sunday of Advent to all who celebrate. May we be renewed along with our Church this new year. Maranatha!

My wife has this fantastic Black Friday tradition. Since absolutely everyone emails you on Black Friday she spends the day unsubscribing from unwanted solicitors.

i think we've all learned something tonight about the size of the market for events where there's a chance to see an influencer beaten to death

Admittedly, I don't watch much boxing but this has to be some of the worst commentating I've ever heard in a live sporting event.

Getting to my first Mirror Universe episode of DS9. Life begins to imitate art...

I know it's too soon for some to talk about uniting this country, but we ought not miss this golden opportunity. Can't we all join together with one voice and celebrate watching Mike Tyson beat the shit out of Jake Paul?

Hey @bencollins.bsky.social #serioustalk for just a second. A lot can and will be said about your purchase of InfoWars, but you should strongly consider consulting with an exorcist before you let any employees near that place.

Adding @www.jrrjokien.com to my Catholic Starter Pack. One of my faves!

🆘️ Church sources confirm that Nicaraguan Bishop Carlos Herrera, OFM, has been abducted and banished from the country. The Franciscan friars in Guatemala are granting him shelter. The Diocesan social media accounts have been suppressed. #SOSNicaragua #HumanRights mosaicocsi.com/2024/11/14/c...

I hear the USCCB approved the new liturgical NT text today (it still has to be approved by Rome before it goes into effect). I would very much love to see some samples at least of the text.

Ok, so worst possible timeline, I figure that means Matt Gaetz as Speaker of the House? Making the line of succession: Vance, Gaetz, Grassley, Rubio, Hegseth. Sounds about right.

Woot, woot, the cool people from the other place are coming over! Added to the Catholic Starter Pack!
