A tiny shard of good news: eyewitnesses in Orange County who went to the dedication Mass of the Crystal Moneypit Monstrosity report that there are kneelers in the downstairs section, but not in the “nosebleeds”, which I think was the choir loft when it was Schuller’s racket.

Sadly, residents of the diocese of Orange County report that many churches in the diocese have no kneelers.

Now, if we could just find the Tabernacle….

Q: I received an Apostolic Blessing certificate years ago before I realized that Bergoglio was an Antipope, and maybe something far worse. I don’t want this thing in my house anymore. I get a bad feeling every time I walk past it. What should I do with it?

A: You’re not alone. I would recommend burning it to ash, collecting the ashes and disposing of them in running water, such as a stream or river. Then, I would strongly urge you to have your home blessed in the Traditional form – which can never hurt anyway. I’ll leave it to you whether or not you tell the priest what the impetus for the house blessing is. It isn’t necessary to do so. Exercise prudence. And make sure you feed Father a good meal, or if he can’t stay to dinner, give him a little walking around money for his time.

Zoom in on the pic below. No kneelers. Anywhere.

Also, no confessionals. The website says that “Reconciliation is held from 7:15-8:15 a.m. Fridays and from 8:30-9:30 a.m. Saturdays in the Small Gallery near the Arboretum.”

Wow. Two whole hours per week! When no one is there! For a parish of over 10,000, and tourist attraction!

Color me shocked!

Speluncarum habent troglodytam.

“They have a Cave Troll.”

If I am ever made Grand Duchess of Etruscany and Latium, I’m claiming this as my Grand Duchessal Motto.  Start embroidering now.

I use the light over my stovetop as a nightlight, and it burned out, as it does once per year.  The bulbs are cheap – less then $5.00 – and I’m convinced that they last longer if you keep them on 24-7. Why not?  Having that light over the stove is a HUGE help and difference when cooking and browning yum-yums.  You need to SEE what you are cooking. Not to mention when you have guests who need to get cold water from the fridge.  Fiat LUX!

Changing the bulb involves opening the hood and seeing the fiberglass grease filter batting.  You need to change that too so your grease fan will actually work.  Every HomeDepot or small town Ace Hardware/Tru Value store will have that filter batting. Cheap.  It’s just a matter of doing it.  Either take it to the store with you, or measure it if yours is especially… shameful.

Frankly, if your over-stove isn’t a greasy mess, then… I’m ashamed of you.  Fish don’t fry in the kitchen, beans don’t burn on da grill… Took a whole lotta tryin’, just to get up dat hill….

This is the option you are given to engage. Daily. No joke.

You know where you can find me. I’ll see you in the Garden. I’ll see you at the foot of the Cross. Until the End. However you get there, whatever route you have to take, I’ll see you there. I will be there because by the grace of God, His Mother Ever Virgin, and my patrons, especially St. Philip Neri, I am within walking distance of the Old Mass. Because I have been given this grace and favor per my state in life and the Divine Providence. If you are not within easy walking distance, do the best you can. We’re all there together. I’ll see you there. With the entire Church Triumphant.

Just love Him.

The Parable of the Weeds from Matthew 13 also speaks DIRECTLY to the question of what to do IF IF IF there is absolutely no possible way you can get to a Traditional Latin Mass or Divine Liturgy until such time as you are able to move to be within commuting distance:

Another parable he proposed to them, saying: The kingdom of heaven is likened to a man that sowed good seeds in his field. But while men were asleep, his enemy came and oversowed cockle among the wheat and went his way.

And when the blade was sprung up, and had brought forth fruit, then appeared also the cockle. And the servants of the goodman of the house coming said to him: Sir, didst thou not sow good seed in thy field? whence then hath it cockle? And he said to them: An enemy hath done this. And the servants said to him: Wilt thou that we go and gather it up? And he said: No, lest perhaps gathering up the cockle, you root up the wheat also together with it.

Suffer both to grow until the harvest, and in the time of the harvest I will say to the reapers: Gather up first the cockle, and bind it into bundles to burn, but the wheat gather ye into my barn.

Matthew 13: 24-30

Dymphna also had a good post on this topic a few days ago titled, “Home Alone Is a Dangerous Practice”.  Check that out HERE.

Watch this until you understand. No matter how many times it takes.

He’s there. He is there at the Novus Ordo Mass.

IF there is absolutely no alternative, MOVE, but until you have moved – HE IS THERE.  Go. Comfort Him.  Tell Him you love Him.  Weep salty tears as He is ignored and desecrated.  Comfort Him. LOVE HIM.

He isn’t a philosophy.  He isn’t a codex. He isn’t an aesthetic.  He isn’t even a Rite.  He is A DIVINE PERSON. And He loves YOU personally, and infinitely.  What He wants to give you for all eternity – the reason He made you – is so good that it is, for now, completely beyond your comprehension.  But you have to love Him, and love Him personally, and that means being willing to suffer with Him in His Passion.

Please, please, please – while you still can – go to Him and love Him, even in an illicit yet valid Novus Ordo Mass IF IF IF that is all that is available to you.

Remember, what Longinus gave Him to drink wasn’t poison – it was vinegar.  Bitter, to be sure, but NOT poison.  Sound familiar??

In thy sight are all they that afflict Me; My heart hath expected reproach and misery. And I looked for one that would grieve together with Me, but there was none: and for one that would comfort Me, and I found none.

And they gave Me gall for My food, and in My thirst they gave Me vinegar to drink.

Psalm 68: 21-22

Folks, His thirst was a thirst FOR SOULS.

Via NonVeniPacem, LOOK at this:

Do you know what the rumor has been in Philly for a while? That +Chaput was being booted, and that… wait for it… James Martin Ethh Jay would be elevated and immediately be given Philly. That’s just a rumor, but the bulletin above sure makes it clear that +Chaput is getting the ol’ tomahawk chop at the stroke of midnight on his 75th birthday.

Fauxp.

First up, a sickening story about a priest in Idaho that was recently convicted of absolutely heinous crimes involving child p***ography and satanism (he admits to urinating in Communion wine – which invalidated the consecration of that wine, but people consumed the befouled wine.)

I draw your attention to this quote from the satanist priest, as reported by the Idaho Statesman:

As Faucher solicited more videos of young boys, he wrote that he felt “wonderful indifference,” Brumbaugh told the courtroom.

Yep.  Because as we have covered in this space countless times, Diabolical Narcissism is the total self-purgation of CHARITY, or LOVE from the soul.  The opposite of Love is NOT hate, because right-ordered LOVE must co-exist with hatred of evil, and of sin.  No, the opposite of LOVE is INDIFFERENCE.

The satanic pedophile priest, Faucher, confirmed this in no uncertain terms.

Next, here is an email across the transom, regarding the children of divorce being gaslighted:

Dear Ann,

I recently red a compilation of stories from the now-adult children of Divorce by Leila Miller, Primal Loss. It’s struck me that gaslighting happens almost always particularly intensely toward the children who are told to shut up, be ashamed of their feelings of hurt and celebrate their parents’ decision to destroy their marriage.

I think highlighting the gaslighting that the children (and other victims) of divorce go through may be of interest to you.

“There must be something wrong with YOU to feel so bad and broken over something that isn’t really a big deal.”

Best Regards,

Yep. the new “virtue signal” is celebrating and congratulating people on their depravity and sin. The more depraved, the more enthusiastic the congratulations and “support” must be. And if you don’t tell these people how “happy” you are for them, and “how exciting this new phase of your life is going to be”, then YOU are the horrible, evil “hater”.  See:

Priests marrying their concubine

Priests ditching the priesthood

Announcing civil divorce

Announcing an adulterous relationship and/or faux “marriage”

Announcing sexual perversion (sodomites “coming out”)

Announcing insanity and self-mutiliation (Bruce Jenner)

Murdering one’s own child (Abortion)

Suicide (self-euthanasia)
