In the land of Mordor, in the fires of Mount Doom, the Dark Lord Sauron forged in secret a master Ring, to control all others. And into this Ring he poured his cruelty, his malice and his will to dominate all life. One Ring to rule them all.

Last week, it emerged that the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Service (U.S.C.I.S.) had formed a task force in order to identify people who lied on their citizenship applications and to denaturalize them. Amid the overwhelming flow of reports of families being separated at the border and children being warehoused, this bit of bureaucratic news went largely unnoticed. But it adds an important piece to our understanding of how American politics and culture are changing.
Given that she’s of advanced maternal age and that she does not look like she has the healthiest figure, I’d be shocked if she could actually conceive and carry a baby to term. She looks like she’s allergic to food. Her dressing in baggy or loose fitting clothing like she did today will probably fool some people except those of us who notice she’s extremely slim.
I’ve seen the same with other tarot readers based on the handful I’ve seen. I’ve yet to see one saying that they’ll have a happy marriage with lots of kids. Which is actually what Harry wants. Except he’s not going to get it with her.
He does not look happy in any of these pics, and, honestly, neither does she. I’ve heard the expression “the smile doesn’t reach the eyes” before, but I’ve never seen a clearer example than this.
The Speech to end all speeches.At their wedding, Daniel delivered a heartfelt, eloquent speech to his new bride. Every time I watch it, it brings a tear to my eye.
Nine years ago I had the privilege of getting to know a young woman with a great sense of humour, a strong sense of duty who was also very, very smart. We became friends. The more I got to know her, the more irresistible she became. These years with you Victoria have flown past and have been the best in my life.
There have been times when Victoria’s Official Duties have separated us. Often she is taken to far away countries and continents. I will never forget some years ago when she left for one of her many trips, this time to China.We were going to be apart for a whole month. The night before she left she got home late after an official engagement, and she had many preparations to make before the long month of duties ahead. Instead of getting some valuable sleep she stayed up the whole night writing.In the morning after she had gone I found a box. And in that box I found 30 beautiful letters, addressed to me. One for every day she would be away. This romantic gesture is typical of you Victoria. It says everything about the loving person you are.
Once upon a time the young man was … perhaps not a frog, in the beginning of the fairytale … as in the story first told by the Grimm Brothers. But he was certainly not a prince. The first kiss did not change that. His transformation was not possible without the support of the wise king and queen, who had ruled the kingdom for many years, and who were full of wisdom, experience and had good hearts. They knew what was best and guided the couple with a gentle hand, generously sharing all their experience.
I feel a great gratitude to Your Majesties the King and Queen, for your strong support, and for the way you have welcomed me into your family. My thoughts are naturally also with my own family. To my mother and my father, and my sister and her daughters. Mother and father, during my childhood you gave me your unconditional love. You have helped me with your wisdom, and you have helped me to build strong self-esteem and confidence through sound values which have guided me through life.Today, when we traveled through the streets of Stockholm we were met by incredible joy and warmth. A memory we will carry with us deep in our hearts, forever. In the years that Victoria and I have had together, I have felt a great support from the people I have met. It has been very important to me. Thank you.
I feel a deep respect for the tasks ahead of me. It will undoubtedly be a major challenge. I will do my utmost to live up to the expectations that will be placed on me. I will do my utmost to support my wife, the Crown Princess, in her important achievements. Beloved Victoria. I am so proud of what we have together. I am so happy to now be your husband. I will do everything I can ever do for you to remain as happy as you are today. Victoria, the greatest of all is love. I love you so.
Which tarot cards? I’ve seen a lot, and I’ve only seen one that mentions that.
I don’t think that’s worth worrying about though. I have a feeling that she wants people to think she conceived as soon as possible, but I suspect she’s going to have a harder time conceiving than most people think. This summer just isn’t a good time for those two to be attempting conception.
I mean, look how slight she looks in this picture and remember that the camera “adds ten pounds.”
Also, boobs get bigger when you’re pregnant, and there doesn’t seem to be a big change in her upper torso. Just slouchy posture.
I’d say “what waist?” since she doesn’t have much of one. But it looks like there is a design embroidered around the waist/torso on the front.
But really, she does NOT have the figure to pull off something like this. It literally looks like an oversized blouse with a belt.
Givenchy has got to be rubbing their eyes against the wall wondering why they gave her this. She’s going to make all the fashion houses look bad every time she wears something of theirs.
A youth care worker who quit his job at a Tucson detention center for unaccompanied minors is speaking out about inadequate facilities, untrained staff and inhumane policies, after witnessing the devastation of family separations firsthand. Antar Davidson says he quit after he was forced to tell three tearful children who were separated from their mother not to hug one another. The facility is run by Southwest Key, a nonprofit that operates 27 facilities and has recently signed a lease to detain hundreds of separated children, including many who are a younger than 12 years old, in what’s being called a “baby jail” in a former warehouse and homeless shelter in Houston.
Antar Davidson told Democracy Now!:
“I realized that if I were to continue with Southwest Key, at least here in this facility, that I’d be told to do things that were… against the code of all humans’ morality… We’re not talking about an organization that was good. We’re talking about an organization that, for the past five years, has made millions of dollars in basically the detention of youth.”
While I’m back for a hot second, I have to share this. This is beautiful. It hit me so hard, and it’s such an amazing statement from a woman in a lot of pain.
Ghosting a LOT of people is going to cost Megs in the near future. Everyone she’s dusted seems to have good reason to hate her. She could have saved herself by inviting so many people to the wedding. But NOPE!
Even Kate’s Uncle Gary went to the wedding, and obviously Uncle Gary never got a 30-minute interview on British national morning television.

Thanks for submitting this. You are amazing!!!!
I would take off the wedding dresses and the shoes, just to be fair. That’s a special occasion and I would expect those prices to be through the roof.
However, that’s still close to 400,000 dollars ($390k according to my math and we are still missing several items like the VB sweater and some stuff that doesn’t have prices).
To put that in context, Kate’s most expensive fashion year ever was 2017. She spent $160k.
She spent about 105k pounds in her first year as a royal (roughly, Liz Jones’ calculations cover June 2011-2012). Her most expensive piece of jewelry was an Asprey necklace that cost 3k pounds.
LOL, I remember thinking that was absolutely ridiculous, but Meghan has spent FOUR TIMES the amount in six months. Heck, I think Kate’s entire first year clothing allowance barely covers ONE of Meghan’s Cartier bracelets.
This is absolutely insane.
Thank you so much for doing this. I owe you big time.
The Crown Princess and I meet every now and then. Today I asked her what she and Estelle were doing at the weekend and she showed from her mobile phone a photo of her and Estelle, collecting trash in plastic bags in Haga Park. That is what I call a role model!

Doesn’t really matter at this point. It wouldn’t surprise me if Tom Sr. gave another interview in the future, even if it was to clarify things he said in this interview.
Pandora’s Box has been opened, and it’s not going to shut anytime soon.
Well, this year the State Room tours at Buckingham Palace start on 21 July and go until the end of September. I don’t know if that means the Queen goes somewhere else, such as Windsor or Sandringham, if she’s not done working before she goes to Scotland or not.

Honestly that’s her usually stare at the stars in Botswana time maybe she’ll switch it up for somewhere else. It’s her birthday month so I doubt she wants to spend it with the family she never had.
Ooh! Good question! The Queen goes up there in July, I think, before Buckingham Palace is open for tourists.
Thomas Markle’s interview is clearly the work of Piers Morgan. I literally do not understand why anyone would think Megs set this up.
That said, Piers probably knows all the dirt from working in the media, just like the rest of Fleet Street. Piers wasn’t going to wait for anything to happen to start instigating this shit, so he got the party started. The rest of Fleet Street is waiting for an invitation, which Harry & Megs will no doubt give sooner rather than later. Because they are that dumb.
Oh, this summer of fire is just getting started!!!
