@SecretFire79 Something seems strangely appropriate about St. Joseph appearing and "no words were spoken."

On August 21, 1879, in Knock, Ireland, fifteen witnesses saw an extraordinary apparition that lasted two hours🇻🇦 At the center stood the Virgin Mary, radiant and serene, offering a vision of peace amid a nation struggling with hardship, poverty, and the weight of grief. To her right was St. Joseph, a mature man with gray hair and a beard, bowing respectfully in quiet devotion. On her left was St. John the Evangelist, his gaze gentle and attentive. At the center, on an altar, rested a lamb surrounded by angels, symbolizing the ultimate sacrifice and divine presence. What made this apparition remarkable was its silence. No words were spoken, yet the scene conveyed a message more powerful than any sermon: a call to faith, trust, and hope. The witnesses, ordinary parishioners, were struck not only by the sight but by the peace and reassurance it brought to their hearts. This silent tableau appeared in 1879 Ireland, a time of poverty, crop failures, and social unrest, offering profound hope and comfort to a struggling nation.The Church carefully investigated the event and formally recognized it as an approved Marian apparition in 1936, reaffirming its authenticity in later years. Since then, Knock has become a place of pilgrimage, drawing thousands from around the world seeking comfort, guidance, and a renewed connection with God. Pilgrims come not only to pray before the scene but to feel the same peace that touched those original witnesses. Why does this matter for us today? The apparition reminds us that God often speaks in ways beyond words. St. Joseph’s presence in the vision teaches us about quiet strength, devotion, and the protective care he offers to families and the faithful. Mary’s serene and compassionate presence calls us to trust in God’s providence, even in times of suffering. And the lamb on the altar, surrounded by angels, points us toward Christ, the Lamb of God, whose sacrifice brings hope and salvation.

@MattPur2 AMAZING! Do you have a dev chart somewhere? I love spiders. I'm partial to the brachypelma smithi, but my daughter loves the wolf spiders because "they give their babies piggy back rides". Any non-jumpers in the game?

First look at my cute spider game Weave & Wander that I am making. #indiedev #UnrealEngine #spider #gamedev

@Catholic_bro A couple of years ago, my father-in-law, sister-in-law, and I went to confession together and were almost in a head on collision minutes later. I made a comment to the effect of, "*If* there is such a good time to be in a head on collision, that was it".

Go to Confession

@mindoverweaknes Technically not wrong... but that is about as vague of an answer as you can get.

Priest defines a Perfect marriage is ....

@astropics Sirius. But Polaris is my real favorite (even if it is not so bright).

16 brightest stars in the night sky ✨ Which one is your favorite?

@Knights_Path @sienkiewiczolog Thank you. Seriously, that particular option is SO rare in modern games. FWIW (since, unlike many devs, you seem to actually care what people think) this is the comment that put it on my wishlist. I appreciate the character design as well, but THIS is unique.

@sienkiewiczolog That is, of course, an option. But also you can remain chaste, court the lady with patience and respect, and wait until marriage, when physical intimacy becomes part of the relationship.

Introducing Amelie, one of the female characters you can form a romantic relationship with in the game.

@LisaBritton I like the idea, but when was the last time a 'federal office' did something productive? I see the 'attack on the family' as the biggest problem facing men. Divorce courts are incredibly one-sided, for instance, allowing many wives to exploit their husbands with impunity.

What issue impacting men and boys do you want to have prioritized in 2026? I’d say men’s health. I’d like to see a federal office for men’s health, more resources invested in men’s health and the WHO do a deep-dive global report on men’s health by the end of the year. Goals!

@AftermathZGame What kind of single player modes will there be?

@fWST39n7i3FwoSP That is amazing. How did you do this? I would love to emulate it!

@TaylorRMarshall Is the ice block now holy water because it was blessed?

Modern popes spend years writing encyclicals on minutiae that almost nobody reads. Then, they perform on-screen gaffs that instantly influence millions of people. They don't yet understand how viral influence works. We can soberly discuss doctrine and ecclesial governance, but meanwhile a tidal wave of Protestants, Orthodox, (and Catholics) is crashing against the papacy. All based on 48 hours of awkward viral Pope Leo content. PS: I take no delight in writing this. I find it very troublesome.

@CatholicSat It is a sad state of affairs when the most convincing arguments to leave the Catholic Church are coming from the Pope... Did he actually make a moral equivalence between deporting criminals and murdering children or is this a 'click-bait' out of context quote?

Pope Leo XIV weighs in on Cardinal Cupich’s decision to honor pro-abortion Sen Dick Durbin, saying: “I think that is very important to look at the overall work that this Senator has done during, if I'm not mistaken, 40 years of service in the United States Senate.  I understand the difficulty and the tensions but I think as I myself has spoken to pass, it’s important to look at many issues that are related to what is the teaching of the Church. Someone who says I'm against abortion but I'm in favor of the death penalty, is not really pro-life. So someone who says that I'm against abortion but I'm agreement with the inhuman treatment of immigrants who in are the United States I don't know if that's pro-life; so they're very complex issues. I don't know if anyone has all the truth on them, but I would ask first and foremost that there'd be greater respect for one another, and that we search together both as human beings and that case is American citizens or citizens of the state of Illinois, as well as Catholics to say we need to, you know, really look closely at all of these ethical issues and to find the way forward as Church. Church teaching on each one of those issues is very clear. Thank you.”

@elonmusk Can this be available on the web app as well please? I would like to be able to use this to teach AI to my kids (without being locked into 'politically correct' topics as i would be with other LLMs).

And Kids Mode coming soon to Grok Android app!

@elonmusk @grok A fetus is an organism of the species Homo Sapiens, ergo a human being. Thus, abortion is, in fact murder.

Please reply to this post with divisive facts for @Grok training. By this I mean things that are politically incorrect, but nonetheless factually true.

@elonmusk @grok The more objective the subject is, the more likely boys are to outperform girls. On a related note, when boys outperform girls it is seen as problematic, when girls outperform boys, it is seen as good.

@elonmusk @grok In modern media, men are typically portrayed as having less value than women even though, paradoxically, many more reviews complain about the objectification of women in films. tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.…

@elonmusk Any updates on Grok 3.5?

We’re building both macOS and Windows apps. Can’t live in the browser forever!

@StellarBlade No new poses for Adam, though?

🔸 Photo Mode improvements and new features are scheduled to be added on the 11th - 3 new facial expressions for EVE - 4 new poses for EVE and Lily - Preset saving function added - Up to 6 lights can now be used #StellarBlade #PhotoMode #June11 #PreorderNOW

@StellarBlade Sorry for the illiterate question, but does Denuvo prevent offline play? That is kind of a big deal as I have a literal cabin in the woods with no internet access, which I like to spend time in during the summer.

🔸️We are closely discussing the region lock issue with the publisher and are doing our BEST to resolve most of it as soon as possible. 🔸️As shown in the test chart below, the DRM has been hard tuned to maintain the same average frame rate, with even higher minimum frames in some cases.

We will make sure that early buyers are never at a disadvantage through future updates. We’ll keep you updated as soon as we have more to share. #StellarBlade #STEAM #StellarBladePC #regionlock #PSN #PS5

@CrimsonRoze lol, I imagine so! I can't wait! Looking forward to emote mods :) Actually I'm also looking forward to the 'new story content'. I am betting it has to do with that one incomplete quest in Xion (with the broken pad). Hoping Mann isn't suddenly evil or something!

@Rapsynrev1 Nice! I’m so excited for the PC and new upcoming updates…we can probably do more than just a hug on PC 😏

Hold me in your arms and don’t ever let go. Adam❤︎EVE #StellarBlade #PortraitThursday

@CrimsonRoze Ah, thank you! I may wait a month before trying going on another photo binge so I can do it straight on my PC. But I shall try that!

@Rapsynrev1 For Adam there is no pose. He would sometimes raise up his arms looking far off when he stands next to the tetrapod in Xion and I just have Eve stand facing him when he doesn’t that.
