Even though I don't really give a shit, I thought I'd let everyone know that a new pope has been elected. Here's the whole story. He chose the name Benedict XVI.

It's a logical choice because the Church didn't want to pick someone who's going to be around for another 25 years. They wanted a short-term "transitional" Pope while the legacy of John Paul II is absorbed.

He also deserted like 2 or 3 years later and joined a seminary.

Psychedelics are illegal not because a loving government is concerned that you may jump out of a third story window. Psychedelics are illegal because they dissolve opinion structures and culturally laid down models of behavior and information processing.
