Part of what made the queen still a thing in 2022 with noticeably little fuss: she was almost a blank slate for 99% of her life- never saying or doing anything even slightly controversial aside from broach choices. She was a child when her uncle effed off and a very young woman when her father died.

Chuck has been a public figure for what is almost certainly almost all of his life. Everyone knows who he is, what he believes, what feminine hygiene product he longs to become.

Not a Brit so I’ve never been brought up in a culture that actually reveres the royals. I’d just be shocked if any future Royal (absent a queen 70+ years from now if Louis has all girls) will ever be thought of the same way again.

Aaaaaaaaaggggghhhh! Not Wonkette too.

There was a 15 minute discussion on National radio about leaky pens yesterday. I lost my will to live.

I too am working very hard to get people to do my bidding through vague waves and constipated glares, but they never listen!

I find the only real results come when I start making obnoxious exasperation noises and sniveling groans. Maybe Charles should work on perfecting His Royal Mewls!

If he'd transition to Sharpies, all of this could be prevented.

Isn’t some of the Charles-bashing coming from conservatives who think he’s unacceptably woke on things like climate change?

Fun fact, when the queen knighted Patrick Stewart she used one of those Klingon sword thing-a-majigs, a whatchmacallit? Lightsaber?

“Every stinking time.” He can’t even quote Treasure of the Sierra Madre” right, or make a clever allusion to it. Dumbass.

Charlie is a perfect example of why monarchies belong in the distant past.
