Pope's Francis' death: what happens now?

mourning rites last 9 days

funeral will take place in St. Peter's square

Conclave will start in 15 to 20 days in order to elect a new pope

The conclave will take place in the Sistine Chapel. The cardinals will decide on which day is starts based on practical considerations.

How does the conclave work?

All cardinals under 80 can take part, voting is secret. For a new pope to be elected, there needs to be a 2/3 majority.

Because of the two-thirds majority needed, it can take multiple rounds before a pope is elected.

Every time the vote is inconclusive, they burn the paper ballots together with chemicals to produce black smoke.

When the vote is conclusive, they ask the elected cardinal to accept the position and what name he will take as the pope.

When the cardinal accepts the position, they burn the ballots again with different chemicals, this time producing white smoke

it'd be really cool if everyone put their money where their mouths are and went and saw the new fully 2d animated looney tunes movie that's in theaters RIGHT NOW instead of continuing to scream about the snow white and lilo and stitch remakes

 So, Yahoo bought Tumblr. I am very sad now. Tumblr was my life source. It kept me alive for so long and now… I don’t even know what to do. I can feel my body becoming weak. You ruined it Yahoo. I don’t even want to use Tumblr now if it’s going to be run by you. I might as well start planning my own funeral because I don’t know how long I will live without my power pack. Yes, I referred to Tumblr as my power pack. Why, you might ask; because when I’m not on Tumblr the world feels all wrong, but when I’m on it, I feel my energy rise. It kept me going and now you have taken that away. Great job! I’m sure I’m not the only one who feels this way. Do you feel good about yourself Yahoo? Does it feel good taking away millions of peoples life source? What do we have to live for now? Yes, I know David Karp is the CEO still, but come on! You’ll probably just boot him out eventually. You suck Yahoo! You absolutely Suck! Oh, and by the way David Karp… We are no longer bffs. You’re not even an f. You’re just a b and it doesn’t stand for best. How could you let this happen? I thought we’d be tight forever. Now look what you’ve done. You have made the Tumblr population very sad. You should be ashamed of yourself. You hear me? ASHAMED!
