On October 4th, 2023, Mario Kart Tour received its final content update. After this day, no more new tours would come to the game, with it instead cycling through past tours. I didn't respect the game all that much, but I do think it's a bit sad we won't get to see any new racers or alternate outfits for a while now...

Or will we?

We've received intel from an anonymous source that this spring, something BIG is coming to Mario Kart Tour. A brand new tour, with new content, to commemorate the season! I'll let the leaked description speak for itself...

"He is risen, and so is #MarioKartTour! Celebrate Easter with the all-new Vatican Tour! Race through the sacred streets of the pontiff's home turf in the new Vatican Velodrome track, and save up your Rubies to nab Kamek (Pope) in the Spotlight Shop- along with a whole host of communion-tastic goodies! This heavenly tour is set to grace your mobile device this season!"

We even got an early look at Kamek's new Pope alt! A miter really suits him, don't you think? Our sources tell us that his unique trick animations include performing the sign of the cross, and sprinkling holy water around him! Even in the heat of a race, Kamek (Pope) loves his neighbor and blesses his fellow competitors!

Kamek (Pope)'s signature kart is the Turbo Tabernacle! What, did you expect a Popemobile? Don't you know the Vatican doesn't like that nickname? I can't believe you would expect such blasphemy here. Our leaker was kind enough to provide this mockup, showing its wafer wheels as well as the new glider, the INRI Scroll! With this glider, you can feel like YOU'RE the one being crucified!

We hope you're as excited as we are for the upcoming Vatican Tour! It would be easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than it would be to resist playing Mario Kart Tour this Easter season!

Story time. Saw a "fascinating" discussion by some cockles tinhats earlier, apparently brought on by another idiot of the "former J2/now Jared stan" variety on Twitter, who was making fun of them for the whole "cockles vatican wedding" thing.

The basic gist of it being that someone(s) pointed out to them that the actual story of what happened during Jensen and Misha's Vatican tour is actually very well known, thanks to an interview Cliff gave a while ago. Out of curiosity, I hunted the Cliff interview down and also watched/read what Jensen himself has said on this subject (only ever mentioned it 2 times, to my knowledge).

Conclusion: Jensen, Misha and Cliff went on a private guided tour of the Vatican (led by an American priest), arranged by Danneel via a nun friend of her's. The tour included various sights normal tourists never get to see. The priest asked them if they wanted to partake in communion (possibly as part of some kind of little blessing ceremony) under a mosaic of Michael and Lucifer, because he knew Supernatural and thought it was fitting.

Cliff and Misha declined (due to them being not religious, it sounded like), but Jensen agreed and also got to follow the priest around and helped the priest dress apparently. Then Jensen partook in communion (note: ONLY Jensen, it was pretty clear from Cliff's story that only Jensen went along with the ceremonial/religious shebang, while he and Misha presumably just watched).

Then they moved on with the tour and even got to see St. Peter's grave. Apparently getting to see all these historically significant places normal mortals never get to see was absolutely "amazing" and "magical", according to Cliff. Also according to Jensen, who used the same words.

(Source: Jensen's and Cliff's own words.)

That's it, a nice adventure for all 3 of them that few people ever get to experience. Really cool.

But not in the mind of cockles truthers! Oh no, the actual version of events described above is apparently cause for DRAMA if presented to them. Because in their minds they have convinced themselves that this Vatican thing was a "special, very important Jenmish moment", that Jensen called it "magical" because the ceremony/communion under the mosaic was a romantic, significant moment with Misha. (Over the years, I've even seen some claim they had a "commitment ceremony" or got married. Seriously. In the Vatican. The heart of Catholicism. Uhuh. Sure, Jan.)

Cliff being there as well, and especially Misha (and Cliff) just standing around and watching while Jensen did his thing with the priest ruins the fantasies they've convinced themselves are the truth. They can't handle that, so they're throwing around the most idiotic arguments you'll ever see:

"Evil Cliff is lying! He's a homophobe and changed the story to make it less gay!" You don't have to like Cliff, I don't like him either, but if you actually watch his interview and consider the context he talked about this, it's very obvious he's not lying. Also, Jensen himself said the same things Cliff said during a con panel.

"The Vatican tour and the ceremony under the mosaic are two different events!" (No, they aren't. The ceremony/communion under the mosaic was a small part of the whole tour. Very clear from both Jensen's and Cliff's words.)

"But in this one sentence from a tiny magazine interview snippet, Jensen says to Misha "You and I went to the Vatican!", so it was only him and Misha!" Yes, he says that because he is talking directly TO Misha during that interview, you pea brain! Doesn't mean no one else was there.

"Im choosing to believe Jensen over mean lying Cliff!" No, you're not. You're clinging onto a tiny little magazine snippet, while totally ignoring Jensen's other, more detailed, statements about the subject. In which JENSEN HIMSELF said that a group of them went on a tour of the Vatican and he mentioned the exact same details (Danneel's nun friend etc.) that Cliff mentioned during his interview.

It's hard to believe this level of delusion (or denial) and the sheer stupidity of it all (not to mention the lack of reading comprehension).

At this point, I can't even begin to determine who the bigger morons are, the J2 tinhats and all their easily disproven, non-existent "evidence" and "slip ups" or the cockles tinhats and their delusional fantasies they've made up in their own heads and now treat as fact, even when presented with undeniable proof to the contrary (though I guess I shouldn't be shocked by the latter, since not even Misha coming out as straight made them pause for a sec, now they all just think Misha was forced to/chose to go back into the closet ~for reasons~). Tough call.

Unlocking Adventure: Essential Tips for Women Exploring Egypt

Egypt, a land steeped in ancient history, where majestic pyramids rise against the backdrop of the timeless Nile River, has always been a coveted destination for travellers. But for women planning to embark on this captivating journey, there are unique considerations that deserve your attention.

While Egypt is generally safe for tourists, it is of utmost importance to be sensitive to local customs and traditions to ensure that your voyage is not only smooth but also deeply respectful. In this article, we embark on a heartfelt journey as we share the top 10 tips for women travelling to Egypt.

1. Embrace Modesty:

Egypt is a predominantly conservative nation, and it is imperative to honour the local culture by dressing modestly. While you need not entirely shroud yourself, wearing loose-fitting attire that covers your shoulders and knees is not just a sign of respect but also a practical choice in the scorching Egyptian heat.

2. Be Prepared For Attention:

As a female traveller, you may find yourself the centre of attention from local men more often than you are accustomed to. This attention is often innocent curiosity, but it is vital to establish personal boundaries. Be polite yet firm in asserting your space and avoid engaging in conversations that make you uncomfortable.
