We’re just getting started, y’all. There’s still a long way to go. And I’m not just talking about Lent.
“Gitup an’eet. Y’aint dun yet.”
Then Elias was afraid, and rising up he went whithersoever he had a mind: and he came to Bersabee of Juda, and left his servant there, And he went forward, one day’ s journey into the desert. And when he was there, and sat under a juniper tree, he requested for his soul that he might die, and said: It is enough for me, Lord, take away my soul: for I am no better than my fathers. And he cast himself down, and slept in the shadow of the juniper tree: and behold an angel of the Lord touched him, and said to him: Arise and eat.
He looked, and behold there was at his head a hearth cake, and a vessel of water: and he ate and drank, and he fell asleep again. And the angel of the Lord came again the second time, and touched him, and said to him: Arise, eat: for thou hast yet a great way to go. And he arose, and ate, and drank, and walked in the strength of that food forty days and forty nights, unto the mount of God, Horeb.

It’s the fact that they have been fully aware of this problem for a year, and didn’t fix it, and put to sea in a completely non-seaworthy, much less battle-ready boat.
I also especially love the part about all of the mildly mentally retarded sailors and sailor-ettes constantly putting t-shirts and other things down the toilets. Every urban custodian knows exactly what’s going on there and feels… THE FATIGUE.
It truly is ending in farce. 250 years was an historically long stretch for a non-monarchical nation. It’s not really a surprise.
THE PLANNED U.S. ATTACK ON IRAN has a hitch: most of the missile-targeting crew are queuing for toilets on the lead vessel, the USS Gerald R Ford. This is not a joke. A set of emails was obtained by NPR, a US public broadcasting group, revealing that toilet wars have broken out on board the most expensive ship the US Navy ever built. The Wall St Journal followed up to confirm the tale today. TLDR Summary: There are too few functioning toilets for 4,600 sailors and the problem is worsening daily—there’s no chance of fixing the system without returning the ship to the US dockyards. . BIG PROBLEMS TO DISCHARGE Problem one: Design planners screwed up by including too few toilets for 4,600 sailors, leading to 45-minute queues on a daily basis. Problem two: Engineers screwed up by installing a fragile vacuum system in which a single valve breakdown on one toilet can stop all the toilets in an entire department functioning—making the queues even longer. Problem three: Some of the temporary repair operations (such as using an acid flush to clear out calcium build-ups) can only be done while the ship is docked: no prospect of that. But with so many toilets out of order, too much pressure is put on the ones still working, so the problem will just spread. . KEY PLAYER IN U.S. ATTACKS And the issues have been gradually mounting for more than a year. “A March 18, 2025 email from the engineering department sent out to all chiefs on the ship said there were 205 [toilet] breakdowns in four days,” the NPR reported. The ship is at the heart of US overseas attack operations, working for months in waters near Venezuela, to support the abduction of the country’s president and the seizing of ships carrying oil to customers, and is now heading the planned regime change operation in Iran. Israel wants a pro-Netanyahu leader installed, as the US has done in many other countries. But how can they attack Iran while staff are queuing for the loo? . WAR OF WORDS ON BOARD One result of all this is war between sailors and on-board sewage staff (called Hull Technicians, or HTs). One sewage engineering head complained that the sailors put all sorts of problematic material down the toilets, including t-shirts: “Our sewage system is being mistreated and destroyed by Sailors on a daily basis. My HT’s are currently working 19 hours a day right now trying to keep up with the demand.” Sigh. And the US taxpayer spent US$13 billion on the ship. On the plus side, it would be delightful if the carrier’s desperate lack of functioning toilets caused the attack on Iran was cancelled or postponed.

Today is the feast of St. Peter Damian, one of the truly great Doctors of the Church. Why? Why do I say that? Read these twelve quotesand you will see EXACTLY why…
St. Peter Damian (far right) with St. Augustine, St. Anne and St. Elizabeth, Ercole de’ Roberti, ARSH 1481, Milan.
“Tell us, you unmanly and effeminate man, what do you seek in another male that you do not find in yourself?”
“For God’s sake, why do you damnable sodomites pursue the heights of ecclesiastical dignity with such fiery ambition?”
“By what right or by what law can one bind or loose the other when he is constrained by the bonds of evil deeds common to them both?”
“Who can expect the flock to prosper when its shepherd has sunk so deep into the bowels of the devil?”
“Who, by his lust, will consign a son whom he spiritually begotten for God to slavery under the iron law of Satanic tyranny?”
“This utterly diseased queen of Sodom renders him who obeys the laws of her tyranny infamous to men and odious to God.”
“Without fail, [the vice of sodomy] brings death to the body and destruction to the soul. It pollutes the flesh, extinguishes the light of the mind, expels the Holy Spirit from the temple of the human heart, and gives entrance to the devil, the stimulator of lust.”
”[The vice of sodomy] leads to error, totally removes truth from the deluded mind . . . It opens up Hell and closes the gates of Paradise.”
”[The vice of sodomy] is this vice that violates temperance, slays modesty, strangles chastity, and slaughters virginity.”
“[The vice of sodomy] defiles all things, sullies all things, pollutes all things.”
“Who will make a mistress of a cleric, or a woman of a man?”
“It is not sinners, but the wicked who should despair; it is not the magnitude of one’s crime, but contempt of God that dashes one’s hopes.”
Collect of the Mass of St. Peter Damian:
COLLECT
O Almighty God, grant that we may followtheteachingandexampleofYourblessedconfessorbishopPeter, and turn away from the things of earth that we may attain the joys of heaven.
St. Peter Damian, pray for us.
Lord Jesus Christ, have mercy on us and liberate your Holy Church from the infestation of sodomites.
I recently came across a comment in an article about Epstein and the word “pizza”. He was a man of Polish descent, born in the USA, who claimed he was not to say the word pizza in his home as a boy when his grandparents visited who were from Poland.
He then explained the word “pizda” in the Polish language is a terrible bad slang word denoting female genitalia. I will not define it. But I will say it sounds like “PEEZ-da” according to ChatGPT. I asked what it would sound like in the diminutive form. There was a more formal suffix but a shortened diminutive would be piz-ka. I asked if this word is found in Yiddish due to Epstein’s ethnic background. ChatGPT said this word is found in Yiddish but is of Polish origin.
Pizza may be a code word for “young girl” to these malformed creatures. This codeword is not as original as it seems.
In this episode, Mark, Art and Ann discuss the horrors of the Mossad-Epstein-Bannon (Proud Honorary Jew)-Vatican human sacrifice and cannibalism blackmail ring. The interconnectedness of these people, if you can call them that, is stunning to behold. Even the so-called “conservative” wing of the Church is entangled in it. A definite ADULT CONTENT WARNING on this one. The good news is, with the exposure of the human sacrifice cabal among the predator class and infiltrators of the Church, we’ve got to be getting close to some sort of resolution. Stay confessed, and a blessed Lententide to one and all.

I have been following you for a while now. I had already been following Dr. Mazza and Non Veni Pacem – when I found your website and podcasts – and have been love, love, loving all that you all are doing. I am a new Catholic, came into the Church by the beautiful and extravagant mercy of our Lord, during the crazy mask years – specifically May 10, 2020 – at a conservative Novus Ordo parish, but soon found my way into a traditional parish (in part because they didn’t make me wear a mask – ha – but seriously,)
I just read the About section on your website by accident and wanted to write to simply tell you that you are doing some little bit of good. You are becoming His good girl and I am so thankful. You and your friends are a holy and hilarious group of voices speaking uncomfortable truths in our crazy upside down world. And I look forward to your podcasts each week and pray the Rosary in Latin every day – and esp. on Tuesdays and Fridays ( the Sorrowful Mysteries)
I came into the Church during a very difficult time – seeing the fruit of my sin hurting my family – as a Pentecostal I found myself going to a very Catholic Marian shrine in Portland, Oregon: The National Shrine of Our Sorrowful Mother. I had no desire to become Catholic, but could not deny the peace and nearness of the Lord I found there. Ha, I had no idea about Our Lord’s Real Presence in the Blessed Sacrament – nor any clue as to how precious and powerful are the prayers of Our Blessed Mother – and yet there I would go and pray for days, weeks, months, and years. and yeah once I came under her mantle – I was a “goner” (as far as the protestant world might see it) but I am eternally grateful. and I have no doubt I would not be in the beautiful, deep, rich and true tradition of our faith, were it not for her prayers for me.
Anyway, enough rambling, thank you for all you are doing, saying and praying, even if many do not want to hear it – it must be said – in love – and in humility – and this I can see is true for you and your Tombstone Posse.
Ha, keep fighting good fight. Oh, and please pray for my family. I am the only Catholic – the first since… Henry the 8th? Anyway – Ash Wednesday and Lent are just moments away for me – and Jesus is leading us on, further up and further in.
God bless you all – stay near His feet.

Hi Ann,
I’m going to confession tomorrow. I just read your post on SHAME. Everything, every word that you wrote, is exactly what I needed to read and absorb to prep for this confession of mortal, and venial, sins I’ve committed.
Thank you Ann and know that you are in my prayers.
I’ve probably told you before, but you are the main reason that I came back to my Catholic faith years ago when I first found you. And recently one of my three sons is coming back too. He has been going to TLM with me on Sundays.
Quote from Dom Gueranger from ~ 140 years ago. May God in His Mercy and Goodness grant to each of us a holy Lent. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray that we may be made worthy of the Promises of Christ!
Quote: “How few Christians we meet who are strict observers of Lent… even in its present mild form. And must there not result from this ever growing spirit of immortification a general effeminacy of character which will lead at last to frightful social disorders?
Those nations among whose people the spirit and practice of penance are extinct are heaping up against themselves the wrath of God and provoking His justice to destroy them by one or other of these scourges: civil discord or conquest.
There is an inconsistency which must strike every thinking mind: the observance of the Lord’s Day on one hand, the observance of days of penance and fasting on the other. The Word of God is unmistakable: unless we do penance, we shall perish.”
When Steve Bannon worked for Trump in his first term, every single thing that was inside knowledge, every secret, he ran straight to Jeffrey Epstein, the world’s most famous pedophile and child trafficker in history, and told him everything.
When Steve Bannon worked for Trump in his first term, every single thing that was inside knowledge, every secret, he ran straight to Jeffrey Epstein, the world’s most famous pedophile and child trafficker in history, and told him everything.I’ve read the emails, it’s true.
I dare you to defend this.
Everyone who is silent in Steve Bannon’s inner circle, should never be trusted again.
This is a pathetic joke.”
Epstein to Bannon: You’re an honorary jew anyway. Now it no longer judeo christian. Just judeo.
Bannon to Epstein: Honored. I will drop the ‘Christian’ in ‘Christian Zionist’.
