C_J I don’t give a shit about everything else you wrote - but I just want to 👏 for using the word ‘mesokurtic’

    It was an extremely proud moment celebrating monarchistic history and colonialism seeing the Queen drive past in her German made Mercedes hearse, closely followed by her mourning family in a German owned Rolls Royce. Brought a tear to my eye. All it was missing was a Messerschmitt fly by to give it that truly British send off.

    Sieg heil !

    Things that make me sad -

    1. Scratching one of my rarest records.
    2. Tipping curry down my new white t-shirt.
    3. Seeing a tiny little bird fall out of its nest.😭
    4. Getting my new trabs muddy.
    5. Seeing Ukrainians suffer at the hands of murdering fascists.
    6. Scousers shooting kids.

    Things that don’t make me sad -

    1. The Queen dying at ninety fucking six.

      It makes me happy but not as happy as seeing the Queen enjoying saying high to her subjects!

      Hi ! 👋👋

      Amazing how quickly the news cycle has forgotten the cost of living crisis (which they helped perpetuate with their collective hysteria).

        I’m looking forward to the day when BBC sports news is just showing sport and not loads of articles on the Queen. I get some of them are genuinely sports related, as she was a big horse racing fan etc, but last few days they seem to be including lots of non sports related news regarding the Queen.

        They need to have a separate section in the Queen and let the rest of us read actual news on what else is happening around the world

          Plus no mention of the devastating floods in Pakistan.

            I’ve got a relative who works for a media agency. He hasn’t been home since her death on Thursday. He even asked me to drive upto Edinburgh on Saturday night to collect a small box and bring it back to London.

                Does the media genuinely think that the majority of the country want 24 news on the Queen right now? This is what I don’t get, yes 24 hours of news on it is fine. After that surely most people are not interested in constant news on it. What is there to report now that has been said 100 times already.
