Look at your keyboard. See the ⌘ key? In 1983, an artist who couldn't code drew it on a piece of graph paper — and changed how the world talks to computers. Her name is Susan Kare. And in 1982, she wasn't anywhere near Silicon Valley. She was in Arkansas, welding a life-sized razorback hog for a museum. She had a PhD in fine art from NYU. She had spent her career sculpting, painting, and curating. She had never written a line of code. She didn't even own a computer. Then her phone rang. On the other end was an old high school friend named Andy Hertzfeld — a programmer at a struggling young company called Apple, working on a secret machine called the Macintosh. He had a strange request: would she sketch a few icons for it? In exchange, they would give her an Apple II computer. That was the deal that quietly changed the modern world. When Susan walked into Apple in early 1983, computers were terrifying. To use one, you typed cryptic commands into a black screen. DIR. COPY. RUN. If you …Mwy
Pope Leo XIV has "decided to follow the '1988 jurisprudence'" with regard to the episcopal consecrations of the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X (FSSPX) on 1 July, reports Rorate-Caeli.Blogspot.com on 25 April, referring to anonymous Roman sources. This means: "He is said to have already had a decree prepared that is similar in tone and content to the one promulgated by Pope John Paul II through Cardinal Bernardin Gantin, Prefect of the Congregation for Bishops, on 1 July 1988." The decree would declare the excommunication of the bishops involved, denouncing these episcopal consecrations as a "schismatic act". Excommunication of entire FSSPX ? Other Vaticanists have confirmed the core of the rumour. Niwa Limbu (Catholic Herald) reported on X.com that the Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith is "preparing for the possibility of excommunicating the entire FSSPX, not just the bishops". Nico Spuntoni (Il Giornale) wrote that the Dicastery is "preparing for the possibility of a schism …Mwy
'Olive branches' and 'synodality' for heretics and apostates but excommunication for those who have 'gone astray' by following the orthodox teachings of the Church for nearly 2 millennia?! Something looks awry. Pray for the Holy Father that he may need the Holy Spirit more fruitfully.

On 24 April, Bishop Joseph Strickland posted a comment on X regarding Pope Leo XIV's response to a question on blessings for homosexual couples in the Archdiocese of Munich during the flight from Africa to Rome. Monsignor Strickland called the distinction between 'formal' and 'informal' blessings, as referenced in 'Fiducia Supplicans', confusing because sin cannot be blessed. Likewise, the suggestion that there are 'greater and more important' moral issues than sexual morality must be understood with great care: "The Church has never taught that sins against chastity are of little importance." "Sacred Scripture and the constant teaching of the Church affirm that sexual morality touches deeply on the dignity of the human person, the sanctity of marriage, and the proper ordering of love." Leo XIV had said that there are much greater and more important issues, such as justice, equality, and the freedom of men and women and of religion. Bishop Strickland responded: "The moral law is not …Mwy
When asked about California Bishop Joseph Brennan's participation in an Anglican episcopal consecration on 18 April, Bishop Schneider described it as an ecclesiastical crime, as Monsignor Brennan took part in the simulation of an invalid ordination. Monsignor Schneider pointed out a double standard within the Church: "A bishop who participates in a schismatic, heretical and invalid so-called episcopal consecration apparently remains unpunished. At the same time, a true Catholic and valid episcopal consecration in the Priestly Fraternity of St Pius X is labelled a schismatic act."
Bishop Athanasius Schneider criticised Cardinal Reinhard Marx’s instruction to priests to perform or enable 'blessings' for same-sex couples, calling it "completely irresponsible". Talking to Gloria.tv on 24 April, Monsignor Schneider said that such 'blessings' amount to publicly endorsing a lifestyle contrary to nature, reason and the commandments of God: "To make this almost an obligation is mockery and blasphemy," he said, adding: "It is a grave sin for a cardinal to promote such a thing."

"78. ‘I desire also that the holy doctors acquire for themselves much grace, light and glory by their earnest, laudable and sacred study, and that the truth be more and more clearly detected and purified, and be traced to its source. By humbly investigating the mysteries and the admirable works of my right hand, they come to be partakers of them and of the bread of the understanding, the holy Scriptures (Eccli. 15, 3). I have especially shown my Providence in regard to doctors and teachers, although their opinions and doubts have been so diverse and for such different ends. Sometimes, for my greater glory and honor, sometimes for earthly purposes, they are permitted to dispute, and to contradict each other; and there is a great inequality in the manner in which they have proceeded and do proceed to show their emulation and earnestness."

It is not expedient, that the knowledge of all things be given to one man, as long as men are viators. For also in the state of comprehensors, they obtain them in parts and according to the state and the merits of each. But the plenitude of all gifts is due only to the humanity of my Only-begotten and to his Mother in proper proportion. The other mortals receive it neither entirely, nor is it always given so clearly, as to assure them altogether.…Mwy
Cardinal Cupich and Leo XIV Share Ecclesial Vision and Devotion for Francis: Pro-homosexual Chicago Cardinal Blase Cupich told homosex activist James Martin SJ on April 21 that he has a decade-long relationship with Pope Leo XIV and often borrows his language when commenting on political events. Cupich recalled that Prevost attended his 2014 installation as archbishop of Chicago. They grew closer when Prevost became a member of the Congregation for Bishops and later became prefect: “He had been here at Holy Name Cathedral a couple of times to visit with me, we had lunch here… We have a very good history together working on important projects and had a great devotion to Pope Francis.”
Chicago Cardinal Blase Cupich said this week that he has worked closely with Pope Leo XIV for years and often draws on the pontiff’s language when speaking on political issues. Appearing on Father James Martin’s podcast, Cupich said his relationship with Leo dates back to 2014 and deepened through their shared service on the Dicastery for Bishops. “We have a very good history together working on important projects,” Cupich said, adding that both shared “a great devotion to Pope Francis.”
Nearly half of young adults say they would choose to live in the past if they had the option. According to a recent poll by NBC News and SurveyMonkey, 47% of adults aged 18 to 29 said they would prefer an earlier time period over the present. About one-third chose a time less than 50 years ago, while another 14% said they would go back even further. That preference is not random. It reflects a growing pull toward the culture and lifestyle of the 1980s, 1990s, and early 2000s, a period many young people see as more balanced and less overwhelming than today. In interviews, many pointed to one common reason: the way technology shapes daily life now. The idea of being constantly connected, always reachable, and rarely offline has created a kind of fatigue. Social media, notifications, and digital expectations have blurred the line between personal time and public life in ways earlier generations did not experience. One respondent, 20-year-old Ben Isaacs from Colorado, said he would choose …Mwy

From the Clementine Chapel in St. Peter’s Basilica
On April 25, Sarah Mullally, who holds the title of Anglican Archbishop of Westminster, blessed at the tomb of St Peter and Archbishop Flavio Pace, 48, Secretary of the Dicastery for Promoting Christian unity, crossed himself.
This Isn't Normal: Confusion Inside The Vatican The so-called “archbishop” of Canterbury, Sarah Mullally, is at the Vatican meeting the Pope, and now there’s a photo going around of her giving a “blessing.” That’s not a real blessing. It’s invalid. Full stop. So what is she even doing inside the Clementine Chapel inside St. Peter’s Basilica, participating in a service like that? This is crossing into territory that makes zero sense theologically. Her office already imitates the real episcopacy, but this? This takes it further. Now you’ve got a fake blessing being acted out in a sacred Catholic space, and it just ends up mocking the real thing, the actual apostolic authority that comes from VALID orders. This right here is heresy. It’s confusing at best, scandalous at worst. There’s no way to spin this as normal.
