Wait a minute...so the officer accidentally grabbed wrong weapon, accidentally UNHOLSTERED the wrong weapon, accidentally removed safety, accidentally AIMED A WEAPON and didn’t feel in the hand it was a gun...gun which is A LOT heavier than a taser, especially if fully loaded.

She’s always been about doing her duty, and while I think the British monarchy is a somewhat silly institution, I respect her dedication. Also agree that it’s likely she’ll cut back significantly on her schedule. She seems to be in fairly healthy and pretty sharp mentally, but she is 94 years old after all. 

‘early grave.’ he’s 99.

Yes. No matter how long you’ve had together it’s never enough time.

By all accounts and appearances she loved him so deeply. This is a crushing loss.

hahahahahahahahahahahaha

Strong “how do you do, fellow kids?” energy in this post.

There’s no way she’s stepping down. Elizabeth is a traditionalist to a fault and British monarchs die on the throne not in retirement. There’s really no ifs, ands or buts about that.  That said, given her age I’d hardly be surprised to see her drastically cut back her schedule and have others members fill in for her,…

Absolutely. My parents were together 44 years when my dad passed and my mom has had a very rough time. I can only imagine how it must feel after 70.

No matter what you think of the monarchy, it’s shattering to lose your spouse.

Chuck won’t last long either, he’s pretty elderly himself, so he’ll just be the rebound king to get England to William and Kate without them being too overshadowed by Lizzie.

That was my thought too. This is the beginning of the end for the current iteration of the royal family; while some (most?) might celebrate that, we’ll see soon what and how much they were holding together. 

It’s not going to be the same again. The man definitely had his flaws, namely his at times complete inability to understand his wealth and why you shouldn’t make “jokes” with the punchline aimed at race, gender, or disability, but he was probably more of a positive to the world than a negative over the course of his…

Condolences to Her Majesty. No matter what you think of the monarchy, it’s shattering to lose your spouse.

What’s everyone making lately? Eastern Orthodox Easter is still a month away, but my family appropriated these Greek Easter cookies for the huge tray of cookies my mom always made for Catholic Easter. I’ve gone rogue on the recipe. The original has a subtle lemon flavor, but my version is more of a Wake up tastebuds!…

Maybe she won’t get Covid because no one wants to get within 10 feet of her anyway?

Shaming aside for a minute, this person is unquestionably one of the most unattractive I have ever seen. He is the epitome of an image of the scuzzy frat boy every female is or should be warned about in orientation. It astonishes me that any one would date him willingly...

The man is a predator, simple as that. This is financial abuse, and he needs to face criminal litigation for this. He was part of the main reason she came very close to bankruptcy before and had to come out of retirement, qnd now he’s trying to bilk her out of millions. I think this is why she and her BF want to get…

My Very Good Lady was a rescue, half brindle pit bull, half German shepherd, and she was surrendered FOUR times in one year... because she was a hyper puppy, and large, and assholes didn’t understand that you DON’T leave a rescue by themselves the very same day that you bring them home, and don’t return drunk, after 4…

My Buddy would snap at me occasionally the first six months or so after I adopted him. I don’t know a lot about the previous owners, but I do know when I got him from the rescue, who pulled him from Animal Care and Control where he was dumped, his coat had been so matted they had to cut it short, he had a cracked…

“He is the bark of the nation” is excellent, and I am now much pleased.
