Maybe but goons aren't the primary audience for all things monarchy. The Queen's funeral is gonna be a superbowl for those folk with non-stop parades, memorabilia, documentaries, the works. Then you have the coronation of the new King, boom that's another blockbuster.

Considering how many issues of People magazine get sold with covers that say "Remember Diana?" this train isn't gonna stop anytime soon. Fans don't necessarily like all the royal family and some I know are well aware Andrew is a monster, but it's like expecting the Marvel fandom to have universally refused to ever again watch Bryan Singer X-Men or Joss Whedon Avengers.

When her husband died a part of the mourning was making their rail service's website black and white. This immediately made it unusable for some folk with visual impairments, it's gonna be that sort of bad grieving decision making x100 for the queen.

Yeah, I mean she’s the last tie to WW2. Honestly, just pension the rest off and open lots of museums. Hell pay them to be tour guides. I mean I can’t imagine any future Royal somehow topping Liz.

I will not shut up about the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. I talk about them all the time and work them into every conversation I have. I built a shrine in my room for the yellow one who died because sadly no one noticed because she died around 9/11. Wanna see it?

I figure a few may have legit nerdy historical interests and knowledge that could be of use to the state, since the state paid for them to learn it anyway.

Just don’t like Prince Andrew near any Children Museums.

I’m fully on board with the gently caress the Royals. I just can’t deal with all the Carson Afrika Korp Wentz and his celebrity wife being treated as worthy of anything of merit, besides her acting separate from this.

It’s petty, but eh AR(oyals)B

The line can bounce around a bit, but Charles has been at the head of it for a while.

If they made Andrew the king, I'm pretty sure the villagers would run them off into the sea.
