My recent bridesmaid dress I wore looked way better in person then it did in some photos so I’m giving it some hope. MADAM IT IS A POOFY PRINCESS WHITE DRESS OF FEATHERED RUFFLES WITH WHITE HIGH HEEL DOC MARTINS. The shoes almost look Victorian. I can't.

Sounds like an order to me. Totally. "He's calling her bluff" was the first thing that came to mind.

The national holiday to celebrate himself? HSH the Sovereign Prince's Day. When he ascended to the throne in 2005. The timing deadline makes me laugh a bit. "It's okay to be gone for 6 months but be back by MY day!" *stomps foot*

I feel like we need a palate cleanser after the fugly wedding dresses. Princess Charlotte of Bourbon (she got married back in September so can't recall if it was posted or not). Now this is a wedding dress.

I googled her to learn more about her and I'm still as confused as before. They reign in Luxemburg but have something to do with Italy?
I don't get it but she does look lovely.

And it goes to show the pure hatred that was coming from these people towards someone they didn’t even know! Tell me now that racism wasn’t at play and that they had to get out of there. Not shocked that there was a campaign

This quote speaks volumes:
Bot Sentinel CEO Christopher Bouzy told BuzzFeed News that this anti-Meghan Twitter campaign is “unlike anything he and his team have ever seen before.”

I came here to see if you guys were talking about this. I think the story is really romantic. I like this photo and the way he is looking at her here. Intense, lol. http://instagram.com/p/CVgNzwsvVme

But I am leaning Russian involved at this time haha.

Also I totally posted and ran. Sorry. Sick kid over here
Anyway. I’m not shocked that it was happening but am shocked by the coordination. But not necessarily shocked at the coordination since we know it occurred during the 2016 election. I am shocked I guess though at targeting them overall for this level of coordination if that makes sense? Like there’s nothing to necessarily gain by it I guess? Other than continue to sow racism. I’m sure I’m not explaining myself well here. I’m very tired. Lol.

I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s mostly UK citizens who would do anything to make sure they didn’t have a black royal and they won but still aren’t happy.

I'm not shocked by the coordinated attacks unfortunately
It came out a while ago that like 6 accounts were responsible for the bulk of the COVID misinformation
Technology (and shitty people) is the *the woooooorst*

One wacky thing I read recently from a reliable source (which I’m now too lazy to Google, maybe MIT?) is that in 2019, 19 of the top 20 “Christian” Facebook pages were run by Eastern European troll farms. Like the memes that Aunt Gladys is always sharing, which often seem innocuous but are intended to be provocative/othering in some way. I mentioned it to a person I know who works high up in national security in that field and he was like, yeah, tip of the iceberg. I’m not shocked by the Twitter thing, disgusted nonetheless. The racism is key because they look for cracks in our society that they can exploit, and UK/US racism is obviously a big fucking crack.

Christopher Bouzy is a good Twitter follow. His Bot Sentinel work is fascinating, and I enjoy his going to bat for Meghan.

Not a fan of the bow for Mary but she looks so great, I'll overlook it.
Frederik looks good, per usual.
