I take it that the herbs and potions aren't working

[–] SoyViking@hexbear.net 6 points 1 year ago

Are you suggesting that the royal court homeopath is not doing his job?

[–] NephewAlphaBravo@hexbear.net 55 points 1 year ago (3 children)

oh fucking lol it's pancreatic cancer?

it'd be so funny if england went straight from the oldest queen ever to a monarch dying every other year

[–] SkingradGuard@hexbear.net 27 points 1 year ago

At this rate our comrades won't have to kill any of the royals themselves, they'll do it for them!

It will be even funnier if it turns out that that that Rose Cholmondeley whatever's first kid was actually William's, he marries her to legitimize the bastard after Kate gets truss-the-plan'd and the Poms start a whole new war of succession

Charles' coffin is being paraded into the Abbey and suddenly Rains of Castamere starts playing.

Parasitic lich Liz had to drain the life expectancy of every future royal for the next 200 years to get as old as she did, this is the natural consequence

[–] huf@hexbear.net 50 points 1 year ago (3 children)

two royals having cancer at the same time? has putin finally perfected his cancer gun?

Secret agenttruss-the-plan will not stop until the royal line has been put in the ground.

[–] assyrian@hexbear.net 37 points 1 year ago

Putin perfecting the cancer gun and only using it on a 90 year old inbred monarch is a good bit

[–] SkingradGuard@hexbear.net 24 points 1 year ago

It's Moscow Syndrome

How many days will the country shut down for this time?

[–] FoolishFool@hexbear.net 35 points 1 year ago

1 minute of optional silence

[–] QuillcrestFalconer@hexbear.net 28 points 1 year ago

They should shut it down forever until we can figure out what the hell is going on in Britain

"work of the royal family"

Standing at a fancy garden party for 45 minutes to say hello to rich pedophiles. That's their job

[–] CarmineCatboy2@hexbear.net 14 points 1 year ago

you forgot refusing royal assent for laws that cut into their earnings

[–] SoyViking@hexbear.net 8 points 1 year ago

The job of the royals is to show up at fancy and respectable events and go "oh well isn't this interesting and important". That and to invite the richest pedophiles in the land to private hunting parties.

[–] AOCapitulator@hexbear.net 20 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Bankrupt yourselves with serial billion dollar funerals and crownings yessss hahaha

[–] SexMachineStalin@hexbear.net 20 points 1 year ago
[–] NewLeaf@hexbear.net 20 points 1 year ago (1 children)

From the longest reigning monarch to not making it a full year...

At least this is likely to be the beginning of the end of the "royal family" mattering

[–] CarmineCatboy2@hexbear.net 21 points 1 year ago (1 children)

this is how my crusader kings games always go. 5 octogenarians until one 16 yo takes the throne. repeat.

[–] IMF_DOOM@hexbear.net 4 points 1 year ago

Just set your top realm to feudal elective so you can get one of your grandchildren in instead

I actually feel a little sorry for him. Pancreatic will fuck you up so fast you barely have time to process your death. Of course, he'll get the best conceivable care while ordinary people, even ordinary rich people, get far less or next to nothing.

[–] Hestia@hexbear.net 15 points 1 year ago

He COULD receive the best care possible. But he's just rubbing herbal remedies on his body and calling it a day.

[–] ArsenLupin@hexbear.net 18 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Send it! Let's fucking goooooo!

I guess this guy will have a shorter reign than Edward VII.

[–] anonochronomus@hexbear.net 13 points 1 year ago

I wish him a swift end to his suffering.

not gonna make it, eh?

To be fair these things are planned years or decades in advance. They kind of have to be with all the people who are supposed to be involved in it.

Prince Charles is probably not going to last very long though.
