The chief difference between my day and now is that, though the ignorance may be commensurate, I do not sense the same embarrassment about it.

#PopeLeo XIV said on Monday that he was not afraid of the #Trump admin, hours after Trump lashed out at the pontiff on social media.
Leo, speaking to reporters on a flight to Algeria ahead of a 10-day tour of several African nations, said: “I have no fear of the Trump administration, or speaking out loudly of the message of the Gospel, which is what I believe I am here to do.”

When he sent the post, #Trump was fresh off a weekend of attending a MMA fight in Miami & spending time with supporters at his golf club after negotiations with #Iran had failed. He criticized #PopeLeo as “weak on crime”—an insult he usually reserves for Democratic mayors—& “terrible for foreign policy.” …Trump also accused the pope of “catering to the radical left” & then offered a piece of advice, to “focus on being a Great Pope, not a Politician.”

“Leo should be thankful because, as everyone knows, he was a shocking surprise,” #Trump moronically wrote in a lengthy social media post on Sunday night. “He wasn’t on any list to be Pope, and was only put there by the Church because he was an American, and they thought that would be the best way to deal with President Donald J. Trump. If I wasn’t in the White House, Leo wouldn’t be in the Vatican.”

Just when you think he can’t go any lower…
Trump’s lengthy post on social media showed there were really no boundaries when it comes to people he might target, including the leader of the world’s 1.4 billion Catholics.

If your enemies are starving, feed them some bread;
if they are thirsty, give them water to drink.
By doing this, you will heap burning coals on their heads,
and the Lord will reward you.The Bible (The Old Testament) (14th - 2nd C BC) Judeo-Christian sacred scripture [Tanakh, Hebrew Bible], incl. the Apocrypha (Deuterocanonicals)

CW: manosphere morons embarrassing themselves in a boxing ring
Both these fools have the agility and quickness of sandbags after a flood. And footwork? It's like watching Ents try to Morris dance. If you didn't know saplings could be sedated, well, neither did I, but that's what you would've seen last night.
DeMoor starts the match by swinging his left arm around in a circle like he's turning a crank, and he does it, like, continuously. It's _weird_. It's like "my dude, switch directions if you're having some sort of medical event." I'm guessing someone told him he has to wind up to land a good punch and he didn't understand the instructions.

CW: manosphere morons embarrassing themselves in a boxing ring
Not that you should be, but if you were curious about the "fight" between rapist and professional misogynist Andrew Tate and an idiot named Chase DeMoor last night since you heard Tate got knocked down a lot, and maybe you wanted to see it with the help of your local neighbourhood media preservationist?
It's true, but don't bother. It's like watching two mustard bottles fight, but without the staying power. It's like watching 15-year-olds at the YMCA before they've figured out how their arms work. The strongest game in that ring was brought by the plentiful supply of bronzer.

A quotation from Thomas Fuller
That which thou are ashamed to do in the Sight of Men for the Turpitude of it; thou shouldest be more ashamed to do in the Sight of the Angels, and even of God himself, when thou art alone.
