      Funny pope selection drama, with the caveat I know about this mostly in passing: allegedly Francis was a compromise vote because the guy that a large (but not majority) faction wanted was too controversial a pick. So they voted in Francis because he was already old and only had 1 lung, so how long could he have to live anyway? Turns out longer than the guy said faction wanted to elect.

      And I know it’s memes, but if Vance did kill the pope it’s extremely funny he was replaced with the guy from Chicago who is against basically everything Trump is doing.
