Ken WhiteEveryone talking about obscure medical conditions that may make King Charles' fingers look like that but nobody's talking about how the entire royal family's tree looks like a fuckin broomstick
I mean frankly that's why all the rumored affairs are a good thing so you don't wind up with kids who bleed to death every time they bump into a doorway with their enormous hubcap jaws
Malc@Popehat The clever snideness of this remark rather falls apart when you look at the next generations (William etc): a member of the Saxe-Coburg-Gotha lineage hooked up with a Spencer, which is basically attached to the Howard family, who, to be fair, was close to the monarchy, but not since the 16th Century (Liz 1, if you're following along...)
Karen Bethany@malc @Popehat But isn’t that precisely WHY they forced Charles to breed with Diana? It’s not like it was a love match — and it was well after the science was *very public* on the impact of multigenerational inbreeding. Isn’t it possible they were specifically looking to infuse a new(ish) bloodline that was still “royal”/ historically significant to Britain after it became very clear that not only should they be concerned but that post WWII, most Brits *knew* it was concerning.
