Embarrassing in 2023. Promoting the idea that a family is destined “by God” to rule over anyone else and then crowning them in plundered gems and blood diamonds. Just gross honestly. Tradition or not the entire concept of a royal family in this day and age is ridiculous. The funniest part for me was when Charles was kneeling and all these church bigwigs were standing around him with their hands stretched out - do they really believe there's something magical about this particular line of inbreds? And when everyone cries out "God Save the King!" is Charles just sitting there thinking "Yes, God save me, because I'm more important than refugees fleeing persecution or kids with cancer or any of these random plebs"?

Oh God, I hope that's just a bad shot and a frumpy dress on Carrie Johnson and she's not knocked up by that rutting idiot yet again... Nah, that looks like a baby belly. Oh god. That last thing we need is more BoJos.

Well alright I'll give him a pass on the movement since he was carrying an extra 15 pounds on his head and shoulders, which really is completely ridiculous LOL What has always fascinated me about this is the family history, while it's ridiculous the Robe Royal weighs 8 lbs the fact that it's 200 years old and is still being used is pretty cool. I think the oldest family momento I have in my possession is like 40 years old. but only once in a life time thank god. Embarrassing in 2023. Promoting the idea that a family is destined “by God” to rule over anyone else and then crowning them in plundered gems and blood diamonds. Just gross honestly. Tradition or not the entire concept of a royal family in this day and age is ridiculous. Completely & utterly TRUE! And South Africa want their jewel back. And they arrested protestors before they even started protesting - not covered by the BBC!

^ They did cover the protests on the BBC news website. No idea about on the TV though. Charles' fingers scream severe congestive heart failure, mans isn't gonna be king for very long. They look worse than usual but he's had this problem with his fingers for over a decade now.

So, assuming he dies before her, what the heck is she going to be called?
Certainly not the "Queen Mother" lol. I guess the "Dowager Queen" - quickly shortened to "The Dowager" so Kathy doesn't have to share the Queen title?

There's a bunch of reasons his fingers could be looking like this. Especially at his age.
I'm going with psoriatic arthritis. I feel like if he had CHF he wouldn't be able to keep the schedule he does.

For the crowning, King Charles will be given a long shimmering gold-sleeved coat to wear called the Supertunica.
Supertunica? Will H&M come out with a knockoff? 🤭

Just going by attire, I think Will & Kate far outshined Charles and Camilla.
But I liked Anne's as well. Then again, she always looks sharp. Too bad this shit couldn't have just passed to her. She's far and away the most qualified in this family IMO. Probably wouldn't even want it. But even if it fell in her lap she'd probably outdo anyone else.
