Princess Diana is all I could think about when Camilla was crowned Queen. #Coronation pic.twitter.com/HVyLXkUKEg— ♰ (@outtaminds) May 6, 2023
I saw the picture and had an immediate urge to play a game of chess...
I think you got them backwards.
LOL!
I’ve been surprised by the empathy and respect I afford Charles and Camilla, the Royals and the Monarchy. They mirror the dysfunction in my own family and the foolish or noble struggles in my own personal life. In projecting onto them, I cut them a little slack, I guess, and me, too, while I’m at it.
I cannot help but think of how hosed-up the first two Kings Charles were.
I don’t accept the concept of monarchy, so I’m not impressed.
For clarification, is it Queen Consort or Queen Camilla?
That picture reminds me of an old joke about two Brits unable to find a rental car in Turkey, rented a camel and rode in into town. After dinner, they went out to get on the camel and found two camels tied to the rail. One of the Brits asked, “How will we know which one is ours?” The other picked up one of the camel’s tails and announced, “The other one is ours.” The first Brit asked how he was able to know which camel was theirs. The other Brit said, “When we rode up, I heard someone say, ‘Look at the camel with the two assholes.’ The other camel only had one.”

Why does that picture make me think of an Imperial margarine commercial? 😆
And that's exactly the kind of wife Charles always wanted. Diana upstaged him, and he couldn't stand it. I lived in Australia for 30 years, and was there when they came out for a visit. They were in an open car, and everyone who was on Diana's side of the road was cheering, and all you could hear from Charles' side was "Oh, damn! She's on the other side!" He had to smile and wave and pretend like he didn't hear it, but it was repeated again and again from everyone on his side of the road.
I couldn't help but think of Diana today. If Charles and Diana had never split and she was still alive, she would have stolen the show with her beauty and elegance.
good for them both
Both Randy Andy and Spare Harry were excluded from the balcony.
I was dating my wife when Charles was screwing around on Diana. My wife, who rarely said a bad word about anyone kept saying about Camilla she looks like an ugly “bag of bones”
nope, Camilla’s his one true love.
Barf.
Diana was his most likely murdered wife.
This part of the deep state lives on.
