The Queen is Dead!

Hahaha, he's not wrong.

What's odd about that first paragraph? Am I missing something or have they corrected it or what?

"Truly international funeral diplomacy is relatively recent. It relies on air travel to fly in leaders from around the world within a few days, and refrigeration to preserve the deceased until they arrive."

 

[Mr. Tea]

As a certified boring centrist, this is funny as hell.

Final, not first, you dinlo!

"Truly international funeral diplomacy is relatively recent. It relies on air travel to fly in leaders from around the world within a few days, and refrigeration to preserve the deceased until they arrive."

When I clicked the first paragraph said

Liz Truss’s planned meeting with Joe Biden in Downing Street, which was to be her first major diplomatic event as prime minister, has been rescheduled for Wednesday at the UN.

 

[IdleRich]

Ah.... apologies to all, it seems that I am indeed a dinlo. In my defence... well, the usual.

 

[Mr. Tea]

Honestly had no idea @HMGovt worked in Tesco.

 

[Mr. Tea]

As if I'd wear mask.

The mask is to protect you from the brain-prion spike proteins being exhaled by the vaxxed-up sheeple around you, duh!

had a lovely bit of acid today

and i was on the point thinking loads of stuff

but mainly about the mega ritual of mourning that has just taken place

and that vast orchestrated pageantry of death

its really something else, its on a Phraonic scale

and its left a hush over the city

ive just come back form a walk

its the aftermath of something

a mega ritual

being up on the hill helps you realise these things, you need to see it from above, like a evil wizard

i am actually sort of kicking myself i didnt stick it out on the river for the whole thing

but i got a bit bruised by the end

 

[luka]

theres never been anything like it in our lifetimes. you can feel it in the city. it was so quiet today. really deeply strange.

 

[luka]

this is the point. best view in the city.

looks shit in photos like most views. you need to be able to get absorbed in little pockets of it, see the train line, follow the trajectory of a street

i can second this, the intricacies dont register to a camera, like the moon. the bigger/more important it is the less point trying to record it

who was posting pics of the backrooms? theyre the least detailed images ever
