The room is
almost all
elephant.
Almost none
of it isn’t.
Pretty much
solid elephant.
So there’s no
room to talk
about it.

I re-read this whole thread whenever any reference to it crosses my timeline, and invariably end up laughing like a drain. Do yourself a favour and dive in for a beautifully written and hilarious respite break from ..all this.
For those who don't know this story, which I first shared six years ago today....
This one time I got my days wrong at work and ended up alone in a room with my boss and the President of Ireland while I was on ketamine.

What a thread.
Pope Leo's first sermon and, uh, his using the phrase "be ever more fully a city set upon a hill" and cf'ing it to Rev 21:10 instead of any of the others before saying "many baptized Christians" are "living in a state of practical atheism" is. Well. Shots fired!

Read Pope Leo XIV's first homily as pope
During his homily, delivered in Italian, Leo XIV said that Christians must serve a world that is often hostile to their beliefs.

What a thread.
I've just had a polling call that seemed to assume I'm in a specific WA electorate. (I'm not even in WA). Off to a flyer.

For many years I have been posting little observations online. What you may not know is that for many years, artists have been illustrating them - for no reason other than they wanted to respond. Below is a thread of some of these beautiful drawings because they should be seen 🧵

I smile at the sight of a toddler on the train in the most incredible knitted Christmas tree hat you could imagine.
