That’s cool buddy, thanks for checking it out. I knew about the mitre and it seems like the popes have the same type of regalia/ornamental discretion as the US President does in many official aesthetic choices. I can’t help but think of the practicality that is always behind any kind of pomp and ceremony like this. There’s always some guy called Marty whose Sister went to school with a guy who calls in a favour to get him a job doing something like holding the pope’s “wee willy winky” on official outings when he has to take a whizz, because the frock and accessories prohibit practical access solo.
The machinery behind the magic, the support staff behind the spectacle… Gladys’s Pips!
