Why is the old upsettingly rich old white British lady a trans right icon/pariah?

NPR will also be unlistenable as the breathlessly cover the death of a monarch from some obscure island country

We may just kind of gloss over it when one of these tinpot leaders of an an obscure island dies but we should still just be glad a monarch is dead. Here’s hoping it’s not long

It's going to be a big deal because there's a non-zero chance that it will seal the death of the Commonwealth. Brenda has been in long enough that people still have a sentimental attachment to their granddaddy's monarch and nobody really wants to boot her out that badly, but Charles is wildly unpopular.

What I love most about the pure coruscating hatred for that dipshit is it's mostly a creation of the tabloid press for his mistreatment of Lady Diana: Queen of All Our Hearts, because they needed to distract from the fact that she died trying to escape from the paparazzi

How do we really know who everyone likes? Maybe they should put it to a vote. Wrong order. Everyone knows the Chad is over on the right.

Thing about Charles is that he doesn't have any virtues to offset his deficits. He's a whiner, he cheated on

sexpig by night posted:yea people tend to conflate 'MJ is a gambling addict', a true fact, and 'MJ was also a pretty bad gambler', another true fact, with 'so obviously he was broke' which is what happens when NORMAL people are those things. MJ and Barkley are two of the NBA's most famous 'oh you have an actual addiction to gambling and you're also kinda bad at it, that's no good!' cases of their time and they're both incredibly rich and successful regardless. The idea that either of them would actually take an L just to win money they didn't need is silly. But they would to win a bet. Problem gambling does not really hinge on if they have the money to lose. Problem gambling is when gambling dominates their life in an unhealthy way. You could be a billionaire but if you're betting every single day then you have a problem and are susceptible to doing bad things to satisfy your habit.
