UK politics - not inspiring but effective
Derfel Cadarn replied to BigFatCoward's topic in General Chatter
Yeah. At the moment, people are half-expecting them to pull a Weekend at Bernies. We have an heir who people are speculating(wildly) killed a man and may have killed/seriously injured his wife … and it’s not looking totally far-fetched. Wlso speculation thst Rose Hanbury is being soft-launched due to that Independent profile - though I suspect that was maybe thr paper trolling William. -

Yeah, probably isn’t true. But the speculation is growing, and becoming more mainstream. David Icke must be champing at the bit to bring back his “royal family alien lizard people” theory. At the moment, the RF PR team is so shit, they’d announce something that made it seem likely -

I think the RF is fucked. William was supposed to be the fsce of a modern RF, some saying (before the queen died) that Charles shoukd have declined it in William’s favour. The queen was respected by most people, even a lot not in fsvour of a monarchy. The whoke recent furore has turned William into a joke. Conspiracy theories are entering the mainstream, and the RF are doing nothing to quosh them. If George becomes king, it will be a much smaller working RF imho. If. -

According to Spanish media, Kate Middleton’s operation wasn’t planned, she was in a coma, intubated, and it was feared she would die. link is in Spanish, can’t speak to the reliability of the outlet. There’s a UK media blackout regarding it apparently https://www.telecinco.es/fiesta/20240203/concha-calleja-responde-casa-real-britanica-kate-middleton-salud_18_011609808.html -

Kate’s probably dodging Andrew, who wants help inserting himself into a photo of the Woking Pizza Express -

By ‘coincidence’, the Independent have published a profile on Rose Hanbury, William’s alleged mistress. https://www.independent.co.uk/life-style/royal-family/sarah-rose-hanbury-duchess-cholmondeley-william-kate-b2510472.html#Echobox=1710067622 -

It probably is just a case of several photos being taken and merged into thr ‘best’, but when you’re trying to kill runours of a cover-up, releasing an edited photo is pouring petrol, not water, on the flames. Read on Twitter that apparently there will be a live appearance latrr, with cameras invited to film. So expect plenty of Weekend at Bernies memes. edit: Kare’s now claiming she was the one who edited. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-68534359 -

A colossal fuck-up by the royal family. RF: lots of speculation over Kate’s continued absence … that she’s had a breakdown, that William wants a divorce … let’s release a photo of her! *releases clearly manipulated photo that if nothing else, shows her not wearing her wedding ring. News outlets pull the photo* forgot link: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-68526972 -
Also worth noting that while it looked like he wrote the first three books really quickly, he was already writing A Storm of Swords when A Game of Thrones was published.

I’ve just bought The Will of the Many, by James Islington. Mainly because Dark Academia is pooular with publishers, so I’ve just started planning a gothic Dark Academia fantasy, to start once my WIP is finished this summer (ok, autumn). So I shoukd read something recent in the genre. It’s first person present tense, which will take some getting used to, but the reviews seem good.

I loved Dune 2 (a RTS) on the Amiga. I played Harkonnen and woukd send a mass of tanks to flank the enemy base, sacrificing them to breach the enemy base defences. Then a second wave, once ready, woukd finish them off
