For years I've felt that the TLMs in my diocese probably wouldn't survive after Pope Benedict's death. After his abdication and this weird twilight existence where they drag him out for photo ops and then hide him away again, that hunch came true. Joshua May used to go to St. Mary's in Chinatown in DC and he has an observation that lines up with what I've been thinking. I couldn't embed the link so it is below.
