May 9 (Reuters) – Gay dating app Grindr said on Monday it would go public through a merger with a blank-check acquisition firm – a deal that values it at $2.1 billion and features Tiga Investments CEO Raymond Zage on both sides of the transaction.
Grindr said its existing shareholders would own 78% of the company after the merger, which comes two years after China’s Kunlun Tech Co (300418.SZ) divested it for $620 million due to U.S. national security concerns.
PAT SAYS
It would be interesting to know exactly how many Irish priests are on Grindr.
In my opinion it in the high hundreds, at least.
Most of these priests are not looking for love, intimacy or friendship.
They are looking for multi party anonymous sex, even though the Church they preaching for tells them that such things are “mortal sins”.
Many of them are abiding by Church teaching by not using condoms π
In time to come Grindr will be listed in the history books and being one of the causes of the collapse of the RC priesthood.
Why people like Amy Martin are ignoring their Grindr priests and protecting them is serious food for thought.

Whats telling was that sisters of charity refused to sell the land.
Can the state move somewhere else or buy the land outright?
β¬10 for 299 years or get fined 600k for something broken I think some clause inserted there. That’s isn’t right.
First thing is to strip their control and start creating money for the state in the long run. Control free and religion free.
The plausible reason I could think of why the land isn’t bought.
1. Consultants didn’t want to move cos close to their home. They are in cahoots with the nuns.
2. They need dosh in the long run. Clause inserted to protect themselves. What happens if sisters of charity dissolves itself, then it reverts back to the vatican control via Bishop. No win situation.
3. Politicans or FFG wants to stay with the church or protect them, think of another’ Michael Woods’.
Best thing is to buy outright or love away to buy some land somewhere else.
Gindrr was/is the prime example of rcc priests or prelates or bishops don’t practice what they preach.

I class both as total Bolloxi in my regard around the circumstances involved. Bishop Gerard Clifford RIP( not a Bollox….rare among bishops….even that Church of Ireland one in Cork going around being photographed recently) said of Eamonn Martin ” he has a lot to learn.” My outlook on Eamonn Martin is well recorded on this Blog… it all stands. But. I have the impression/ understanding he is kind to the priests who find themselves in public difficulties ( I am not referring to any matter where there is criminal conviction….CONVICTION). On that score, perhaps Eamonn Martin is learning and has learned ….. There is a lot to be said for kindness….the only thing that matters in the end. I would say Eamonn was essentially kind before they administered the iron to his soul.

The diocese of Salfordβs website is somewhat ironic. As soon as you access the website a pop-up message from the safeguarding team states that due to current government guidance they are working remotely. The website then has the bishops statement encouraging everyone to return to Mass on Sundays. Perhaps the Bishop could start with getting his own workforce back Into the office?

Nice again to get a word in my daily Arabic vocab with a helpful etymological connection:
Arabic ΚΎab ‘father’ is related (via Aramaic, Ancient Greek and Latin) to the English words ‘abbot’, ‘abbess’ and ‘abbey’.

Portuguese bishopsβ leader seeks forgiveness from abuse victims
By Catholic News Service
May 12, 2022 Contributor
” LISBON, Portugal β The president of the Portuguese bishopsβ conference begged forgiveness from victims of sexual abuse by Catholic clergy, as a church-appointed independent commission predicted many more abuse cases would come to light.
βThese attacks are particularly serious; in addition to direct physical harm, they affect the fundamental system of affection, trust and values that sustains personal, relational and spiritual development,β said Bishop JosΓ© Ornelas Carvalho of Leiria-Fatima.”

Reading through the βOfferingsβ on here that are clearly from clergy & their demented sheep, not even a hearing aid would help. They beyond redemption. A dangerous Cult for sure. Frankie not doing much about cleaning up their act, he too busy counting his sheep loot

Off todayβs topic β did anyone watch tonightβs Eurovision song entrants for next Saturdayβs final. Its an absolute joke β our lovely wee Derry girl Brooke Scullion failed to get through for Ireland when she so deserved a place. Some of the songs are pure rubbish and got through I hope Ukraine win on Saturday night.
