tbf i would travel with my own favorite childhood teddy bear if i could

i don't think the monarchy is gonna make it. queen elizabeth lived so damn long from ww2 to now-ish. i can imagine a certain amount of inertia for legitimacy when the monarch is some ancient little old lady in pastel colors with corgis.

but suddenly, the new monarch is this fuckin' inbred guy who has been a public doofus since always. that has got to move the needle to where more people are like, "wait, how much is wasted on this asshole?"

guy who is completely unfamiliar with monarchy

[–] porous_grey_matter@lemmy.ml 5 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

For anyone alive it is sudden, yeah you can know about history but Elizabeth was queen for the entire lifetime of almost everyone alive

[–] red_giant@hexbear.net 4 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

I mean more, like, it’s not a new thing that they’re inbred

[–] porous_grey_matter@lemmy.ml 4 points 11 hours ago* (last edited 11 hours ago) (1 children)

yea i know, i just meant that it wasn't as... obvious... with elizabeth as with charles

[–] came_apart_at_Kmart@hexbear.net 3 points 10 hours ago

agree. a lot of Elizabeth's whatever-was-going-on-there was masked by being small and elderly.

king chuck has got it all, proudly, on front street, and his whole vibe is a reminder of the queens non-verbal cousins that were hidden and locked away.

you're greatly overestimating the terf-islanders

[–] LENINSGHOSTFACEKILLA@hexbear.net 41 points 1 day ago (2 children)

alright am i alone in thinking the 2.5 centimeters is the weirdest part? not even the butler, the SHEER AMOUNT OF TOOTHPASTE

[–] Ram_The_Manparts@hexbear.net 2 points 10 hours ago

Yeah no, I was thinking the same lol

That is fucking wild

[–] Liketearsinrain@lemmy.ml 20 points 1 day ago (1 children)

wait, this isn't a joke post?

you made me doubt it and i looked and yes, he really does want these things. the toothpaste centimeter thing is because he wants exactly an inch of toothpaste out of a crested silver dispenser, which translates to 2.54cm. the claims come from Omid Scobie's book "Endgame: Inside the Royal Family and the Monarchy’s Fight For Survival"

[–] jackmaoist@hexbear.net 46 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Charles is inbred right? This is the kind of shit inbred monarchs have always done.

[–] RNAi@hexbear.net 68 points 1 day ago (2 children)

2.5 centimeters of toothpaste is like a lot, the dude is foaming like crazy

[–] hellinkilla@hexbear.net 43 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Just raises questions about the toothbrush.

[–] poster596@hexbear.net 30 points 1 day ago

Maybe seizing the toothbrushes will be necessary after all.

As much as I'd love to believe this screenshot of uncredited text, this is how I knew it was all fake. No British person cares that much about brushing their teeth

[–] BanMeFromPosting@hexbear.net 41 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (3 children)

There's interviews with his butler where the butler talks about the toothpaste and also being called into his office in order to throw out one piece of paper into a paperbasket next to the desk.
Skepticism is only worth anything if you follow it up with research and this shit is pretty easy to look into. https://www.cosmopolitan.com/uk/reports/a38743898/prince-charles-doesnt-squeeze-out-his-own-toothpaste/

Yeah I'll do more research the next time I fire off a shitpost on this website that is exclusively dedicated to doing praxis

Please give me some pinocchio-evil next time at least

[–] BanMeFromPosting@hexbear.net 1 points 17 minutes ago

Shitposts are only funny if they aren't dogshit. All I told you was to do the bare minimum and you freak out as if I told you to wash your ass.

Dedicated to doing praxis

Alright, maybe reading wouldn't have helped since you just make up things you'd like to have read instead of what is actually written.

I'll give you the hexbear pinocchiocountdown

nice i hope his life sucks til he dies

[–] Lowleekun@hexbear.net 41 points 1 day ago

Imagine beging a monarchist. Peroid.

Pretty cringe.

[–] kleeon@hexbear.net 30 points 1 day ago

None of this is surprising. Royals were always weird neurotic pussies

[–] Llituro@hexbear.net 51 points 1 day ago (4 children)

custom velvet toilet paper

pause. wtf does that even mean? is he wiping his ass with fucking fabric? is he just regularly annihilating plumbing everywhere he shits or something? i don't understand.

[–] supdawg813@hexbear.net 39 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Kinda misleading, Kleenex Velvet is the brand name and it's not sold in some countries so he has to travel with it

[–] Llituro@hexbear.net 21 points 1 day ago (2 children)
[–] ZWQbpkzl@hexbear.net 18 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (8 children)

Kleenex is basically synonymous with tissue paper in the US but I've never heard of them selling toilet paper before. Cottenelle is the TP brand from Kimberly-Clark in the US.

Probably extra soft toilet paper kept away from us because if we knew there more than one kind of softness, we'd never stop killing for it

[–] fox@hexbear.net 27 points 1 day ago (3 children)

He's got a dude whose job it is to emboss the royal monogram on every square of what's otherwise just Charmin 2 ply.

Like that this comments section isn't filled with his defenders claiming this extreme privilege is just undiagnosed autism and criticizing it is ableism like I've seen when this is posted elsewhere.

[–] GalaxyBrain@hexbear.net 29 points 1 day ago (4 children)

I think that's more insulting to autistic people than making fun of a Prince for being a spoiled adult brat who throws temper tantrums. Autistic people arent that demanding and if someone was, they would still need to be rich and privileged enough to make those impositions

lmao that's incredible. I love when people use woke talking points to defend the most reactionary people on the planet, it's genuinely hilarious

I myself have a plush isopod and that's never impacted my work but the rest is ridiculous

[–] GalaxyBrain@hexbear.net 18 points 1 day ago (1 children)

If i could afford Royalty Level toilet paper I'd probably take it with me as well. Probably hard to go back

[–] booty@hexbear.net 11 points 1 day ago

if I were one of the most privileged people on Earth, I would use a bidet and then it wouldn't matter what kind of toilet paper I use

You don't understand, he forced the media to use the full government name instead of "prince Andrew"
