“Given that Rorate Coeli and Shea are mad at Fr. Z, I think it proves Fr. Z knows what he is doing and he is right.”

"Let me be clear. Fr. Z is a shock jock, mostly. His readership is vast and touchy. They like to be provoked and react with speed and fury."

“For me the saddest thing about Father Z’s blog is how cruel it is.... It’s astonishing to me that a priest could traffic in such cruelty and hatred.”

The altar cards look really nice! I’m thinking of ordering a set “just in case” I need a gift for a newly ordained priest. Or a priest who needs a little encouragement!
I’d like to add a plug for Fraternity Publications. I have found their price and quick service to be the best for ordering the TLM booklet missals when you buy in bulk (or even just ten). I am truly thankful to God that we needed to purchase more!
Are the backs of the altar cards self-standing(or have some mechanism to achieve this) or would one have to find something to prop them up against to use them.
[No. They would have to be propped. That’s was a good question.]
They look like a nice set for the price. The Placeat seems rather poorly placed though. I always find it works best in the upper right-hand corner, even though most cards put it in the lower corner. These cards seem to put it directly behind the veiled chalice.
[The Placeat, yes. Although we should know that prayer by heart, many card sets placed it a bit awkwardly. However, it is not a horrid violation of a rule to shift the card slightly if necessary.]
These are some stands that we use for our altar cards. —>. HERE (Tried to use Father’s Amazon link.) They are not very expensive and don’t take up a lot of room.
Our altar cards are in frames but I think these stands would work great for a thinner but rigid item like these cards. They are unobtrusive.

I see I am not the only one who prefers the traditional Kindle Keyboard to the newer Paperwhite. I have both and prefer reading the old one, especially with the lighted cover you have at night.
