Dead ones and the living
I slept twenty minutes last night and all of them were nightmares. I write this e-mail from a dentist's office in Davis Square, where after an hour ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
derspatchel is finally being seen for the filling that disintegrated on Monday night (it is that kind of week). I appear to have just watched the Pope abdicate on CNN. I've had better-starting mornings.
(Probably so has the Pope, but I bet he isn't tired enough to hallucinate movement in the brickwork across the street.)
[edit] I still really keep hoping for an antipope. I know it's not going to happen. I'm just saying.

I don't think I agree with the sedevacantists' reasons! I'm so conflicted. Maybe if one of them raised a personal army or was tried for heresy or something, it would settle the question.

Is it too late to hide under something? I'll bring blankets if you'll bring muffins.

I hope matters will improve soon, at least a bit, for both of you.

It's the last day of the month! If we can just make it till midnight . . .

Mostly an arch over the doorway appeared to breathe faintly and rotate with a sort of rippling pattern against the straighter-stacked bricks of the wall, in ways that it couldn't have done even if it were an independently mobile piece of architecture. It was an interesting effect. Non-Euclidean geometry, hello.

Dude, now I want a Pope Azazel the First.

Amen!

I don't know if I like this pope enough to wish him fuzzy slippers, but I will thank you for the image anyway.

Apparently! I am disappointed in St. Peter's.
no subject
Thank you. We'd like it. We're hoping.

That icon does.

I like your dreams.

If it's any consolation, there are already at least a couple of anti-popes out there. There's David Bawden AKA Pope Michael I, who apparently lives outside of Topeka, and there's Sergio María AKA Gregory XVIII of the Palmarian Catholic Church, who lives in Murcia, Spain. I expect there are others, but those were the first two that came up when I looked around on the internet.
There's some sort of a schismatic Tridentine Mass group with a chapel not far from me, but alas they're sedevacantists* and only have a bishop, albeit an irregularly consecrated one, rather than an antipope. Perhaps they will choose to be more amusing soon?
*Believing there is no current pope--I suspect Pius XII is the last one they find acceptable.

Please note I said nowhere that midnight cannot be waited for with blankets and muffins.

I only wish I thought any of them had a sufficient sense of humour to do this. I've known priests who might have done, and even an archbishop, but alas none of them have been given a red biretta.

This is why we wish Leonard Boyle had been willing to accept one, and NOT gotten himself into a fundraising scandal... Other people throw paper darts in the classroom. Boyle used to throw manuscripts. (Though to be fair, I think it was just charters; and they're not rare, and relatively indestructible.)

Agreed. This is the first I'd heard of him, and I'm wondering how I can find out more. Thanks!
