What did you learn today? Share it with us!
We learn something new every day. This is a community dedicated to informing each other and helping to spread knowledge.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must begin with TIL. Linking to a source of info is optional, but highly recommended as it helps to spark discussion.
** Posts must be about an actual fact that you have learned, but it doesn't matter if you learned it today. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.**
Rule 2- Your post subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.
Your post subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding non-TIL posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-TIL posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
For further explanation, clarification and feedback about this rule, you may follow this link.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.
Unless included in our Whitelist for Bots, your bot will not be allowed to participate in this community. To have your bot whitelisted, please contact the moderators for a short review.

We covered some of these guys back in my Medieval history class back in college. My professor affectionately referred to them as the “porno popes”
Pontifex MAXIMUS indeed.
His Holiness Biggus Dickus I.
He has a wife, you know!
Popes who were legally married
Ya know like popes in pornos, they fuck
All they heard was ‘second coming’ and signed up. You gotta read the full T&Cs guys.
Catholic... Sexually active... Oh boy! I don't like where this is going!
Relax, it's just the catholic church. It's not like they're the president of the united states or anything
Catholic priests have been fucking kids far longer than the US has been a country.

If you're going to control someone through their denial mechanism, it helps to give them a lot to be in denial of. It's a feature, not a bug.
How can you die from indigestion
The outlet was blocked by a page.
For those not getting the reference:
Thought to have died of indigestion arising from eating melon, though his opponents alleged he died while being sodomized by a page.
Doesn't seem far fetched to think the indigestion was an excuse. Though to be fair, I've had some rough melons in my day.
His opponents were skeptical of that version too
The og vore?
Don't look that up if you're innocent.
Why is the screenshot cut off mid-table?
Probably your client. Looks fine on Voyager
Edit from a later comment: I thought you meant the picture itself was cutoff, the the actual table in the picture. My bad
I'm on voyager and it's clear that there's more to the table.
Looks like you're both on Lemmy instances as well, while I'm on a Piefed instance. I saw this same thing happening on another post a couple days ago, seems that Voyager is handling Piefed better nowadays
I’m on Mlem and the table is also cut off. Literally looks like it’s just one pope
Now that you've said it that way it makes sense. I thought they were saying the photo itself was somehow cut in half, not that there's just one in the photo
