To be very pedantic, if Charles croaks in the next couple of months he will be the shortest reigning King of England of his line. The shortest reigning King of England period is apparently some asshole named Sweyn Forkbeard who reigned for like five weeks in the year 1014.

As it should! And why stop there? :)

At this point, they need to just let Christopher Eccleston loose on the royal family and be done with it all.

People saying that one of the main benefits of the royal family is their impact on tourism sound so fucking stupid. If that’s what you really cared about then surely you’d have realised what would happen if we scrapped the monarchy and opened all their palaces to the public. Tourism would skyrocket.
All the money we make from the royal family is made from castle tours and gift shops. The royals do nothing.

Imagine waiting that long to become King and then almost immediately getting cancer

Wow they made the British monarchy from Bridgerton into a real thing? Netflix really went all out on marketing this year…

Friendly reminder that the British public cannot afford another funeral. This will cut into healthcare costs, and many disabled British people WILL die. Ripple effect, people

I'm not gonna lie the slightest possibility of witnessing the dissolution of the british monarchy and reunification of ireland in my lifetime has jumpstarted my will to live

Honestly, I'm torn between hoping Charles dies of a catastrophic prostate explosion tomorrow and hoping that he sticks it out as long as possible, because an exploded king can easily be replaced, but a king who's so profoundly uncharismatic that every day he's on the throne he erodes public support for the institution of the British monarchy just by existing is a tough act to follow.

If you're currently furious about the amount of money the British oligarchy spent on a funeral and a coronation during a cost of living crisis: consider the fact the UK will have to do it all again in less than 10 years when Chuckie 3 kicks the bucket.
