I really need to come up with macros for all my standard rants.
Oh, I'm gonna go to the special hell.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
How did they decide Camilla will be the Dutchess of whatever it is? There can't possibly be existing rules for this, can there?

After Henry the eighth, I'd imagine they have All Sorts of Rules....

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I love that she'll be princess consort. I totally want to be a princess consort. It's like a princess, I'm thinking, with better sex.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Yes, this.
Ooh, I missed the part about princess consort. That is the best title ever!

Prince Albert was the Prince Consort after Queen Victoria married him, so I'm guessing there really is a rule about is. I don't know where Cornwall comes in - is that part of Charles' portfolio (Prince of Wales, Duke of Cornwall, etc) or something the Parker-Bowles can bring to the table?
Unlike Iraq. IJS.
Yeah, Condi's already said "North Korea does not have to fear attack by the US." Well, no shit. Although honestly it's not just that we won't attack a nuclear power - we won't attack where China will get involved.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
So I watched Project Runway and damn you, Nancy O'Dell!
I kind of agree since overall, Wendy was not a good designer; but I actually think she did the best dress this time-- the only design she's done that I liked. Too bad she didn't match it with orthopedic shoes. At least Jay is still in there-- I was scared!
