“the iPlayer” jesus fuckin wept

The Queen is bigger than Jesus.

trigger warning: it's a corpse!

It's hard to manufacture the sacred these days, and the more they try to pump up theawe the more ridiculous it becomes.

Wait, so day 6-9 is an open coffin, this says? I somehow doubt that

Rangers v. Napoli later could be interesting too.

badly written article delivers distressing news:

they don't even follow up on the fact that the story was invented by sir iain moncrieff of that ilk (who i am always pleased yo hear about as he wrote a guide to heraldry that i greatly liked as a small boy (it had funny pictures)

Are the pubs shut on Monday?

The country is shut on Monday.

The ones that will be open will be blaring this shit

Pray for me, who has a long train journey to make on Monday and no real knowledge of whether it will be possible.

Praying for all of us

This is cold, not fair at all.

Unhappy with the pace of the queue. I've counted 1,789 people for the last hour. So on that number only 235489 people will get to pay there respects. #TheQueue needs to deliver for the people. Gutted if u queued for 2 days and found out your number 235490. God Save The Queue! pic.twitter.com/op8WJa6yad

If you’re British, this is the queue you’ve been training for all your life. The final boss of queues. pic.twitter.com/5auXopBfOr

Celtic 4 Rangers 0
Ajax 4 Rangers 0
Queen dies
Rangers 0 Napoli 3

Sing away you clowns.

3am and people are filing past again. the last half hour or so was just a shot of the outside. did they stop?

reminds me of big brother when they used to show that overnight and you could just watch people sleeping.

they're no longer single filing the queue, the estimate from above isn't going to be correct anymore

Two football teams who played the weekend after the Queen died are being investigated and will be "dealt with in the strongest possible terms" https://t.co/i4lFrLOTIC

A firing squad would obviously be more practical though.

Every Brit in the UK (children included) should be obligated to watch the Queens funeral as it will forever be a huge part of British history and further education! As sad as Queen Elizabeth II passing is, it has really united the people which I thought was an impossible task 👏🏼 https://t.co/hn7w1exPYy

I wonder how many other people are finding this whole situation is stoking a furious unforgiving revolutionary rage inside them

This was really interesting. If only we could have these conversations here.

Un-Whitewashing: Every once in a while, someone unexpectedly describes succinctly & cogently, in an unexpected place, the historical legacy of the relation between between the British monarchy, colonialism, white supremacy & racial slavery. And it just takes your breath away. https://t.co/YHX1MauiDy

But of course. I'm consoling my self with the thought that these fuckers are riding for a fall and the whole thing's going to blow up on their faces - I think it's more likely than ever that the UK is going to cease to exist relatively soon.

I think a lot of countries will get out of the common wealth first. The anti-colonial critiques have been great to see.

It's made this hell carnival a lot more palatable. That and Charles, who clearly can't hack it.

counterpoint:

Moved, honestly, to tears, watching hundreds and hundreds of Londoners queuing for hours, filing by and paying respect to the Queen's coffin in Westminster Hall.
Quite a few crying.

"Londoners". Aye, right.

Looks well worth the 30-hour wait

dynastic rulers always were good at putting aside petty differences like religion or decades-long wars if their own legitimacy were being called into question. solidarity!
