As Easter approaches, Pope Leo XIV reminded people that Jesus Christ spurns the prayers of those whose “hands are full of blood,” citing the prophet Isaiah.
In contrast, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth prayed that the military would use “overwhelming violence” in Iran during his first Pentagon Christian worship service since the war began.
Today is MAR 10, aka Mario day. It is also extremely close to the spring equinox.
This implies a cycle of Wario Day (fall equinox), Luigi Day (summer solstice), and Waluigi Day (winter solstice).
Luigi's height and generosity represents the wheat stalk; when we feast upon the harvest we embody Wario's girth and greed.
Waluigi stands for the lean times that come during winter. As the snows melt he is replaced by Mario, whose plumber nature blesses the fixing of pipes that burst from the cold.

I always love the shots from the NOAA cams on the Water Cribs in Lake Michigan.
