I cut and pasted your post to ChatGPT then specified that it should be creative and clever.

The current pope is Pope Francis, born Jorge Mario Bergoglio in Buenos Aires, Argentina. He became the 266th pope of the Roman Catholic Church on March 13, 2013, after the resignation of Pope Benedict XVI—a rare and dramatic event in papal history. Pope Francis is the first Jesuit pope, the first pope from the Americas, and the first non-European pope in over 1,200 years. He’s known for his more modest, pastoral style and emphasis on issues like climate change, poverty, and social justice, though his papacy has also stirred both praise and controversy within the Church. Would you like to know more about his background, his views, or something else about the papacy?

I have an idea why. The AACR meeting today had a mass protest of Trump’s cuts. The NCI posted a tweet applauding the protest.

That can’t have made Trumpies happy.

My beautiful intelligent wonderful quaker parrot Lucy passed away 11 days ago. I’m devastated. I loved her beyond anything and she changed my life. But I always knew she was never meant to be a pet. She was meant to fly free.

There’s a heartbreaking #ParrotCrisis with 1000s of unwanted parrots needing homes. If you’d like to care for one of these amazing beings, DONT buy from breeders or pet stores. Instead rescue a bird needing a home…and learn all you can beforehand so you understand their many needs and problems.
29% of parrot species are endangered or threatened, largely due to the global parrot trade. Millions of captive parrots languish in human homes ill-equipped to provide for the needs of wild animals. Sanctuaries around the world are beyond capacity - too many unwanted parrots have nowhere to go, because humans failed them. To end the #ParrotCrisis, we must stop selling, buying, and breeding them. No cage is big enough. www.allianceforparrots.org

Lucy my 30 year old quaker passed today so today is Birdy Remembrance Day for me too.

She was a loving, pugnacious, amazing person. I’m lost without her.
