Catholicism is fading? The Pope has no sway in America? What are you smoking? Orthodoxy has sway in Alaska and various ethnic enclaves of Greeks and Russians and has very little impact in American culture. Catholicism ESPECIALLY traditional Catholicism is growing. It is culturally impactfull, frequently appearing (both with respectful and distasteful depictions) in movies, TV, and internet meme culture. Orthodoxy? Not as much. I say this with Orthodox friends that you are dead wrong and look jealous and silly that your Patriarchs aren't given a sliver of the same interest.
But this proves what I have always said. Many Americans that become EO are such because they realize Protestantism is dead and shallow, they want sacraments and beauty but cannot bring themselves to shed their protestant brainwashing about the Pope and want to do their own thing.
I say this with philia and charity, you as well are excused from this conversation and as a neophyte to Orthodoxy should refrain from speaking on these matters until you've matured in your faith.

Spiking bond yields driving sharp losses in tech stocks
A spike in interest rates since the start of the year has accelerated a rotation out of high-growth technology stocks and into value stocks poised to benefit from a reopening of the economy. The Nasdaq has fallen more than 10% over the past month as the Dow has soared to record highs, with a spike in the 10-year US Treasury yield acting as the main catalyst. It recently surged to a cycle high of more than 1.60% after starting the year below 1%. But according to Jim Paulsen, the Leuthold Group's chief investment strategist, rising interest rates do not represent a long-term threat to the stock market. Paulsen expects the 10-year yield to cross 2% by the end of the year.
A spike in interest rates and its impact on the stock market depends on the economic backdrop, according to Paulsen. Rising interest rates amid a strengthening economy "may prove no challenge at all for stocks," Paulsen said.
Can I mute a Telegram group?
In recent times, Telegram has gained a lot of popularity because of the controversy over WhatsApp’s new privacy policy. In January 2021, Telegram was the most downloaded app worldwide and crossed 500 million monthly active users. And with so many active users on the app, people might get messages in bulk from a group or a channel that can be a little irritating. So to get rid of the same, you can mute groups, chats, and channels on Telegram just like WhatsApp. You can mute notifications for one hour, eight hours, or two days, or you can disable notifications forever.
