Place your random thoughts.

The new Pope just got chosen: Robert Francis Prevost, he's taken the name Leo XIV (14th in case I got it wrong lol). He's the first American Pope. Wonder what he'll be like 🤔 I've never heard of him, but I don't know the names of many cardinals.
 
My cat now answers to Beansprout. I make no apologies for this.

I didn't see ur original post about this until now, so sorry for the late advice (and you may already know this),

but Persona 5 has a story recap in-game in the pause menu I'm pretty sure! I think it's under "System" in the main options

Yup. This isn’t my first time playing the game, just first time on my switch. What I meant is more like not the story but things I was doing like what personas I was trying to fuse and stuff like that. I figured it out though.
 
My grandma is not happy about the new Pope. I don’t know anything about him. I keep coming across posts (on X, not here) saying that he is woke. Maybe I should look into it because it has me curious.

I read that he's criticized Trump and JD Vance, so maybe that's it?

I don't want to theorize why someone's grandma doesn't like the new pope, but! I did want to comment on Leo the 14th's influence on Trump and JD Vance since so many seem interested in this pope in this thread :)

(disclaimer, I'm not a Catholic or part of the Roman Catholic church)

I was watching an interview on YouTube that was just done. Pope Leo the 14th has an older brother and the interview was asking about them growing up and stuff. I guess when Leo the 14th was in first grade, some lady down the street told Leo the 14th that he was going to be the first American pope.
Some headlines are starting to come out talking about the contrast between Leo the 14th and Trump. I haven't clicked on them yet. Before pope Francis passed, there seemed to have been some meetings planned with the US leadership and Pope Francis but it didn't fully happen due to pope Francis's health.
I do think that this Leo the 14th guy has been placed where he has. I guess that sounds weird. I guess I should reword it as this particular person, I believe, is placed where he is for this very specific time for specific reasons. This Leo the 14th got things to speak to the leaderships. The world doesn't revolve around the US, but the US greatly influences the world .. and we are in a delicate time period right now for many leaderships. It does indeed feel, to me anyway, multiple countries have thier guns cocked. Even without the US necessarily being involved.. tense times in the world right now! The average civilian feels it.. and the world economy is reflecting it.
Just, random thoughts.
 
Speaking of the new pope, the previous pope disagreed with Trump on many issues, but even Trump mourned him. Marjorie Taylor Greene on the other hand, celebrated his death and vilified the Catholic church. That right there tells me that she needs to get fired from Congress. She’s worse than Trump.

I wish well for the new pope.
 
Some people say Lady Gaga’s fiance Michael looks like her dad. Maybe when her dad was younger, though? They have similar builds and complexions.

(Her mom set them up, so maybe she was subconsciously thinking of him.)
