thread for KING CHARLES III (regnal name george vii)

or one of those late period cheapo Bruce Willis films

MANDATORY KILL (2019), 11% Rotten Tomatoes

Oh my God????

Like many amateur photographers, I do occasionally experiment with editing. I wanted to express my apologies for any confusion the family photograph we shared yesterday caused. I hope everyone celebrating had a very happy Mother’s Day. C

we have been known to dabble

leaving aside the very-obviously-dead princess of wales' 'explanation' of the apparitions captured in that image, you have to wonder what kind of idiots they have advising them on their pr strategy, since supplying doctored images to the media for news purposes is absolutely forbidden

this is still all part of the BECOMING, ppl

i: there was nothing in that little coffin
ii: whatever it is that liz is turning in the forests of balmoral is not yet ready to be seen on our screens
iii: probably it also can't speak yet (still shrieking only)
iv: but it can put ideas of sorts in nearby seeming-human heads…
v: … ideas helpful to liz but not to her hapless so-called “family“
vi: "its hour come round at last slouches towards" etc

"But I gathered that the blasted idiot had all the dreams McReady had, and a few more. He slept beside the thing when we stopped on the trail coming in from Secondary Magnetic, remember. He dreamt the thing was alive, and dreamt more details. And—damn his soul—knew it wasn't all dream, or had reason to. He knew it had telepathic powers that were stirring vaguely, and that it could not only read minds, but project thoughts. They weren't dreams, you see. They were stray thoughts that thing was broadcasting, the way Blair's broadcasting his thoughts now—a sort of telepathic muttering in its sleep… "

lol "I am just an amateur photo-retoucher" is exactly the wrong note to take, inspired work Agent Middleton.

if she posts a link to her Geocities page i'm prepared to believe her

I'm compulsive photo-editor - probably everything I've posted anywhere in the last 15 years has had some sort of edit - and I'm not averse to stepping well over the AP boundaries and doing a bit of cloning and content-aware fill (especially if I lose some background detail in a crop or geometry correction) BUT if I edited a photo like this, it wouldn't even make it to Insta. 3 of the 5 glitches are egregious enough to start over.

But I also agree entirely with Mark S's reading.

#KateMiddleton Actually, to those of us with a background in graphic design, these errors are really amateur. Zoom right in: there are multiple coloured circles where no coloured circles should be. And once you’ve seen it, you can’t unsee it pic.twitter.com/hn7FgvtcBA

my first thought upon encountering this whole sitch was that she did the photoshop herself lmao

He probably wanted to add extra fingers to the kids, so people would know they had royal blood.

theyre going to have to produce her in public arent they

someone on twitter pointed out the real scandal here is how poorly the paint on those window is cut, dont have enough money to hire a professional

What was she trying to accomplish with editing the sleeve?

my analysis of the kate middleton photo saga is that they took her face from the vogue cover she did years ago and edited it in pic.twitter.com/JLXts08zp5

What was she trying to accomplish with editing the sleeve?

I'd guess that Bill V did a quick hand-held burst (missus) and Kaff made a composite of the shots and didn't blend them right, hence errors.
Tbh, every single time I try to do this (especially without tripod) I end up with the same kind of stuff, so I never bother. If so-and-so's aunt is looking miserable in the best overall shot, tough.

the vogue cover theory looks pretty convincing but on the other hand k middleton is the kind of person who smiles exactly the same way in every picture

the lighting is completely different and she looks about 8 years younger - but it is uncanny how similar the pose is.

do any of charles iii's official titles refer to dominion over (northern) ireland?

No equivalent of Lord of the Isles or that kind of thing, but NI is specified in his "royal style":

The precise style of the British sovereign has varied over the years. It is chosen and officially proclaimed by the sovereign.[1] In 2022, King Charles III was proclaimed by the Privy Council to have acceded to the throne with the style:
Charles the Third, by the Grace of God of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland and of His other Realms and Territories King, Head of the Commonwealth, Defender of the Faith.

not to be too conspiratorial, but one very odd detail I noticed on close inspection: that all these people appear to happy and having a good time, despite being obviously British pic.twitter.com/rj0m1X8BAw

Apparently the latest theory is that William is having an affair with a toff called Rose Hanbury and Kate is refusing to play ball until a divorce settlement is reached.

The apple doesn't fall far from the tree.

the marchioness of cholmondeley pronounce her by her title

Apparently the latest theory is that William is having an affair with a toff called Rose Hanbury and Kate is refusing to play ball until a divorce settlement is reached.

"styled earl of rocksavage" that's more like it

at least 3 international pictures agencies refuse to distribute this morning’s photo of Kate and her children

Hilarious sentence to see. If only NFTs were still a thing.

I'm obviously not a seasoned Royal-watcher as I had never heard of this woman until an hour ago

The best rumour is the one that William likes Rose to peg him. Where does this stuff come from, I wonder.

xps

I never even knew such a thing as a Marchioness of Cholmondeley existed, outside of the pages of a PG Wodehouse story.

Who amongst us has not become embroiled in a contretemps with the odd raugravine or two

well yeah i love JRPGs

Blaming this thread for the fact that today at work I glanced at a pile of daily mail's where the front page down one side had a picture of Kate and the other had a headline smthg like 'They won't tell us what they've done with our loved ones bodies' and I genuinely had a couple of seconds where I thought the headline and picture were connected.

WHEN I WAS YOUR AGE "JRPG" STOOD FOR JOHN, RINGO, PAUL, AND GEORGE, NOW EVERYBODY HAS PRONOUNS, THE WORLD HAS GONE TO HELL

Using the power of “3D” i have completely debunked claims the Kate Middleton car photo is edited. Why don’t the bricks align? Let’s see.. pic.twitter.com/kFS68c4tMe

this story is really bringing out the best of the internet

William taking part in a "biscuit decorating session" yesterday, I hear

Yes I hear he loves a soggy biscuit.

this tweet sums it up nicely I feel

Potential Details Emerging🚨

Prince William got his mistress Rose Hanbury pregnant, Rose has decided to keep the baby and Kate had a nervous breakdown. In a fit of rage, she revealed to William that she was having an affair of her own with Thomas Kingston and that she was… pic.twitter.com/d04KC9LLq3
