Rubbish and Better
Mar. 9th, 2021 08:45 amThey've always been crap. Gangsters in ermine, nothing more.
The British Press and Public like to skewer princesses. The prince who associated with Epstein and slept with under-age girls stays well shielded by his mother, whose sorrow at hearing her racist family actually described as racist is being imagined and thoroughly mourned by every nutter in the country.
Pff. Ridiculous place. Ridiculous people.
I know what will happen. If there's such a thing as reincarnation, up, down, and along various alternative realities, I'll get out of this life yelling 'never put me back there again' just in time to miss the once and future Golden Age of England Not Being A Total Knob. Or some Heavenly Messenger will just smile at me benignly and present me with a Henry VIII fat suit saying 'but it was you all along!'

Andrew is awake. The tracheostomy is fine, he was conscious for 4 hours, he still needs kidney filtration, still has infection, his troponin levels are high but his heart seems OK. Fingers crossed. Take your time as you need, mate, but up you get.

I didn't watch the interview. I had some dealings with Oprah back in my People Magazine days. She is cold bordering on mean to the underlings. I pass on all things Oprah.
But I do read The Daily Mail! 😊. So, I am amply qualified to have an opinion!
I would say the interview was deliciously curated! 😊. I particularly luvved the implications that the princehood that is adorable Archie's birthright was withheld over concerns about the color of his skin. Of course, virtuous Harry and luminous Meghan refused to name the racist royal who raised these concerns—had to be Anne, right? She's the blunt talker—which, of course, might make one wonder whether this detail was invented were it not for Harry's virtue, Meghan's luminescence and the UK's general racism.
I also—because I am completely tasteless, as you know 😊—lost five bucks because I bet someone that Philip would kick the bucket shortly before the interview was to air.
The sooner the UK coronates the head corgi, the better!

I for one welcome our canine overlords!
