I'd like to remember Pope Francis as the Pope who called a ton of priests faggots, apologized for it, then called them all faggots again

When my brothers were younger I wanted to teach about misogynistic tropes in media without scaring them off by presenting the topic right out the gate as serious and aggressive and intimidating so I pointed out one day that movie dudes usually only ever have three motives- 1. Wife, 2. Daughter, 3. Dog.

And now whenever we watch a movie together and a dude character is about to reveal their angst backstory we take guesses if it’s gonna be 1, 2, or 3.

Which is specifically the most fun to do in bad B-list action movies because you can say “It’s a 1” as it starts and then ten minutes later the ham-fisted Macho Man Tough Guy quietly mentions being married once and you can put your hands in the air and go “AYYY IT WAS 1” like your team just scored a sportsball goal

Truthfully though I think we need more 3’s

Thinking about the story of Paul always straightening John's tie.

Thinking about how for John, having his tie loose and the top button undone was his little act of rebellion and push back to having to wear suits all the time in their early years, and Paul always coming up to him before a show and straighten it up, was Paul saying "shape up, knock it off, don't disturb the peace."

But when Paul when he heard this story, he said "There’s a story that I used to straighten John’s tie before we went on stage. That seems to have become a symbol of what my attitude was supposed to have been. I’ve never straightened anyone’s tie in my life, except perhaps affectionately.”

To Paul, he wasn't trying to tell John to stop, he wasn't asking him to change something about himself, he wasn't trying to make him do anything. To Paul, that was a show of affection. That's how he showed all the excitement and joy before they would go on stage together.

Paul saw fixing a problem as an act of love, and John saw it as an act of criticism.

And this, ladies and gentlemen, is a perfect illustration of how they were always doomed.
