I see the old Pope has karked it over night . Watch out for when they light the barque up for the new one !

I'm no fan of organised religion, of any flavour, (especially Catholicism) but I feel this is a sad loss to the world. He was one of the few forces for good out there at the moment. He brought a lot of ground breaking, good things, into the Catholic Church. I just hope his successor is as liberal.

Yes, he managed to see another Easter in.

"With inclusive trends. I'm thinking there's a good chance the next Pope might be a Protestant.

A Dr Who type switcheroo."

Come on, you’re not one of the people who actually thinks that was really a nazi salute are you?

 

on the plus side, great time to buy as many Tesla shares as you can

Of course he did it on purpose, he'd clearly rehearsed it. You can't accidently do two in succession.

Whether he was trying to get a rise, encourage "the proud boys", or whether he's a real nazi is open to interpretation. In my mind, the fact he did it suggests that it was intended to be a nazi salute.

Musk is bang into the occult and the Nordic/Proto-Germanic scene, which is popular with the extreme far right. The logos for both Tesla and X are runic in origin. 

I can't say for sure, but he looks like a duck, and he walks like a duck...

I don't think Tesla will recover from this.
