Oh wow. I saw a shot of his Easter blessing and thought he looked shit. Poor old fella. I think he was one of the (few) good ones.

Sent a cardinal to lecture vance, turns out he was on his deathbed. Chose not to spend his final hours with vance. Top call.
Duenan@aussie.zone 2 months ago
Smart move.
That would have been one of the worst ways to spend his last hours considering their past meetings have been not so great.
Taleya@aussie.zone 2 months ago
Plus vance probably would have attempted to copulate with said deathbed

oh dear
I hope someone with a strong anti-fascist character is chosen as replacement

Me too. This one was at least progressive in some ways and could have offered some protection in the face of advancing fascism :(

I read he recently assigned (annointed/annnounced) a bunch of new Cardinals - mostly from emerging nations across Africa and Oceania. Also ensuring that 80%+ of the conclave will be cardinals that he approves of. That bodes well at least. Though having grown up around the church I don’t hold a lot of hope in those guys.
