Did you see/remember stories from her PR sources calling Charlotte “possessed girl”, after she had allegedly spent last Christmas at Anmer House, and George a “jerk” (that was Lainey Gossip)?

talkingtarot:

I don’t read sugar outlets like that unless I have to for information. Lainey can say all she want about the Cambridge kids, she’ll regret it when this MM fairytale crashes and burns.

Normally I go with Lainey is crazy explanation these days, but it’s getting crystal clear with every new post on the Sussexes that Lainey is straight-out lying.

Coming into a fandom early and watching it become an angry clusterfuck

Being in a dormant fandom that suddenly comes alive again after a new book/movie

Don’t forget about those who come in the midst of a fandom war.

Accuracy at its best

Being in a fandom and not even knowing there’s a war going on…

all of this shit…lol

When You’re Not In The Fandom But You’re Nosy AF

When you get into a fandom only to discover it’s dead

This gets better every time I see it. 

@fuboos-mess

Being in a dead fandom…

Or being in such a tiny fandom that it feels like youre the only one

The accuracy hurts.

Being in a fandom that had a shit ending.

When you’ve been fangirling long enough, you’ve experienced all of the above.

Being in a fandom meant for kids.

This just gets better..

@mi-kleos

When you realize that joining the fandom has ruined you

Fandom hell in general

Yes.

This^^^ just… ALL OF THIS.

Being in so many fandoms that you don’t even know what’s going on

THIS IS THE SKULDUGGERY FUCKING PLEASANT FANDOM IN ONE POST!!

Trying to recruit people to your fandom

Annnnnnndddd it’s back

Being in a fandom which has so many antis

I’ve probably reblogged this before, but that was before these great additions.

Being in a fandom that actually works together

Why is this so true? All of it.

being in a fanbase but all your mutuals suddenly turn into Kpop blogs

I always enjoy it when a good post comes around again and has been improved by the reblogs like the years for a fine wine.

Being in a fandom when shit goes down and everyone has different opinions

When you are in a fandom and don’t care for others people opinion…..even if they are right…(believe me, I have met several of those)

Being in a fandom you never meant to join

I love this. and it’s gotten better

After abandoning a fandom you’re still a little bit emotionally invested in….

THIS IS A TUMBLR RELIC! ALWAYS REBLOG!

Study suggests multiple instances of inter-breeding between Neanderthal and early humans

archaeologicalnews:

A pair of researchers at Temple University has found evidence that suggests Neanderthals mated and produced offspring with anatomically modern humans multiple times—not just once, as has been suggested by prior research. In their paper published in the journal Nature Ecology and Evolution, Fernando Villanea and Joshua Schraiber describe their genetic analysis of East Asian and European people and how they compared to people from other places. Fabrizio Mafessoni with the Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology offers a News and Views piece on the work done by the pair in the same journal issue.

In recent years, scientists have discovered that early humans moving out of Africa encountered Neanderthals living in parts of what is now Europe and Eastern Asia. In comparing Neanderthal DNA with modern humans, researchers have found that there was a least one pairing that led to offspring, which is reflected in the DNA of humans—approximately 2 percent of the DNA in non-African humans today is Neanderthal. In this new effort, the researchers have found evidence that suggests there was more than one such encounter. Read more.

Royal Tea from our CD group! Bottoms up 😉

Hello fellow Charlatan Duchess members…I had to pop on and just give a morsel to y’all. According to my source who I want to give kudos to for letting us know about the Meghan hate-fest directed at Kate weeks ago–we now have confirmation on that tidbit via most major media outlets.

Now that the riff is out on the open my source is giving us some insider info. They say Meghan was rude to our Kate from the very beginning. As MM’s wedding date drew near she was caught complaining about adorable Charlotte.

Rolling her eyes during a fitting of the princess’ dress, MM said to a staffer, “My gawd, she’ll ruin my entire day! Can’t she stop fidgeting?!” Kate heard all this, as did the little princess. Palace rumor is Charlotte “told daddy,” even before Kate could. PW told PH something to the effect of “I understand your fiancee is nervous. But there is no excuse for rudeness and snide remarks. Get her in check. It’s disgraceful.”

But MM couldn’t and wouldn’t stop. PW & Kate got it from palace sources MM was the leak to many of the anti-Kate articles –ones comparing them & giving MM the prize as better dressed etc. PW had enough. Kate remained “queenly” says my source “refusing to in public or in private settings give in to lowering herself to Ms. Markle’s level.”

Instead, Kate just pretended MM wasn’t there. She ignores her & so did PW (And still does.) Which the Queen picked up on. This is why the Queen refused the emerald tiara and rumor has it HM told Kate, “She’s become quite a problem. Please know we shall be making adjustments.”

PP was livid after he learned about MM’s rudeness. “Bloody American. It’s Wallis all over again. And wearing white? What does she want this to be? One of those reality shows? IF it’s a war she wants —we’ll show her no quarter!”

MM thru her PR people is leaking like mad now that the palace has taken off the kid gloves. And HM isn’t budging. PW is the one who pushed for MM & PH to move. This also explains my earlier report where my source claimed Kate didn’t want her kids anywhere near MM.

The Queen was upset over the entire debacle, but is staying resolute that MM will eventually be so exposed in the British press having no choice but to leave. “We remain steadfast,” HM told PP. “That the interloper will be exposed,” said HM.

For her 1989 album “Rhythm Nation 1814,” Janet Jackson drew on an already established idea: the dance-based utopia. Lyrically, she was exploring the idea that the right rhythm can intoxicate and control us, and, eventually, unite us as living, breathing, flesh-and-bone humans. The album’s accompanying 30 minute longform music video did just that, with a chair routine that would be imitated for years after.

scorpiotwentythree:

I guess those latest articles now also perfectly undermine why we got such a different set of wedding pics (especially in regards to Charlotte). 

Check out May… Kate leaning away with her body and forcing a merely polite smile, holding her daughter; Charlotte looks serious and tired, George is furthest away from the whole mess, and it seems as if William and Kate are physically forming a barrier to the left. 

In October… we see Charlotte all on her own (no watchful Kate or William there), and she is having a blast and laughing heartily as she goofs around at Eugenie´s feet.

Everyone reports the same thing—a sudden, disquieting increase in harassing attacks that seem completely over-the-top given the rather sedate royal topics being discussed… “I have witnessed what amounts to be roving Twitter gangs that find a tweet/blog post about Meghan and kind of rally the troops and stoke up the fires and suddenly you have a hail storm of abuse flowing at you,” explains Jane Barr, who runs the From Berkshire to Buckingham fashion site, which focuses on Kate. “For me, it is very frustrating to write a nuanced analysis and have people just take a black-and-white interpretation and run wild with it.”

Patricia Treble on the royal fandom (via duchessofostergotlands)

If we are to talk about children’s rights, we must also talk about education. And about the possibility of getting extra support when needed.

If we are to oppose exclusion, school must be a place for community.

And if our country is to reach its full potential, then we must also ensure that every single child has that opportunity.

I think these issues are of vital importance to Sweden’s future. And now I look forward to discussing them with you.

“I’m sorry, but if you are born or married into the family after a country rids them as monarchs, then you don’t have a title! You’re no one, sorry to say, and you’re definitely not royalty. I’m sick of people thinking they are truly high class or a princess/prince, etc just because they are invited to a few events now and then and have a tiara in a storage garage somewhere. That doesn’t make you royal..“  – Submitted by Anonymous

It’s a lose-lose situation for Meghan when it comes to both countries. We Americans have short attention spans, and the British never forget something once you rub them the wrong way it seems. When she leaves, she’ll have her 5 mins of fame in the US, but then we’ll forget about her and maybe even turn on her when she gets annoying (which is inevitable), and the UK won’t show any remorse or sympathy for her after. So she’s got nowhere to go after this really. Might as well migrate to Canada.

talkingtarot:

YUP.

You don’t mess with the British press. They have been itching, just ITCHING to get their claws into Harry. Yes, I say Harry because he’s “theirs” and he has been playing games with them for years. Slapping them with IPSO’s to “put them in their place”. Meghan is the fuel they are dumping on the fire they have lit under his ass. Wake up son! You’re goose is cooked!

talkingtarot:

Yep. The British media will obliterate them. All you can do is sitback and watch the disaster.

Charlotte Dress Fitting Incident: energy reading

countesscuriosity:

I don’t generally do this, but I used my energy reading methods to get some answers about the Kate/Charlotte dress situation. Here are the questions I asked, and the answers I got:

Was Meghan rude to Kate during Charlotte’s dress fitting?
Yes

Was Meghan rude to Kate about Charlotte’s dress?
No

Did Meghan complain about about Charlotte’s behaviour to Kate?
Yes

Did she complain about Charlotte’e fidgeting?
No

Did she complain that Charlotte cannot remember what to do and she should practice more?
Yes

Did Kate cry in front of Meghan?
No

Did Kate cry when she was in the car?
Most likely. 

Did Kate confront Meghan about her rudeness?
Not at that time

Did Kate confront Meghan her rudeness later?
Mixed answer, very vague yes, then no three times.
I’ll interpret that as even if she did, it was not direct.

Did William confront Harry about Meghan’s rudeness?
Somewhat vague yes, which means he didn’t discuss this particular case specifically. If he did bring up her rudeness, it was in general.

Did William talk to Charles about Meghan’s rudeness?
Yes. They have spoken about it at some point, but he doesn’t seem ot have dicussed the particular incident with Charles in great detail. Might have been as a by-the-way thing, bunched together with more serious transgressions.

Did William talk to The Queen about Meghan’s rudeness?
I got a flip-flopping yes-no, which generally means I have to rephrase the question or look at it from another angle.

SO I asked –
Did Wiliam talk to one of the Queen’s aides about Meghan’s rudeness?
I got a strong yes. Someone who works as the primary liason between The Queen and the family have been briefed about Meghan’s behaviour with the Cambs. The aid has not given HM the details of the incident, but she knows what she needs to know. 

After that I got tired, so I didn’t “read” more. But if you have more questions you want me to ask, send them my way. Frame them correctly though, because I read “yes” and “no” answers.

What do you mean by the title ‘will passed out of the royal family’ ?

duchessofostergotlands:

At the moment the Duke of Edinburgh title is what’s called a Royal Dukedom which is because the owner isn’t called His Grace, he’s called HRH. However when the title reaches someone who doesn’t have an HRH it becomes like every other title. James will be His Grace and they’ll start to use numbering so he’ll often be referred to as James Windsor, 2nd Duke of Edinburgh (not third, the title will be recreated for Edward and he’ll be the 1st Duke but won’t be known as the 1st Duke because he’s an HRH). 

Go Zambia! They SHOULD feel insulted. Meg proved that she DOESN’T care about zika during the tour, so the zika excuse is doubly insulting- first because it unjustifiably tarnishes Zambia’s name/prospects, and secondly because it gives the appearance that those countries they visited that DO have zika are more valued by BRF so both had to go despite huge risk, but Zambia doesn’t matter so the (false) same risk = no show. Should have just said SHE PERSONALLY needed to rest and left it at that lol

talkingtarot:

Exactly.
