I just wanted to share some thoughts I've had since talking to some RL friends last night. I'm a Republican, and didn't actually post much on any of the threads on here. But I did read them, laugh at the ones I found funny and speculated a little IRL. I enjoy robust mental health, but I feel a little sad and down today about the news. And a little guilty. It occurs to me that it might be a real source of distress to some other people. Not the big media ghouls, of course, they have no shame and will just move on to the next thing without looking back, but for those of us who bought in to the whole farrago and maybe posted things we now wish we hadn't. So remember, the media often manipulates us, the establishment often lies to us and it's actually a good thing not to immediately take what we're told at face value. Don't beat yourself up and find someone to talk to if you feel really bad about it. Take care of yourselves.
The royal family

Thanks mum.
I think it’s horrible that KP released a totally composite picture of her family and lied. They should not have done that. Stick to the story. Be back at Easter.
All of this could have been avoided if the pictures had never been released.
Heads should roll at KP for not being able to hold the line.
Twitter will alway twit and SM will feed off any scraps out there. But KP have done HRH Kate dirty. Not the public.

Some might feel a bit bitter that they the royals get such prompt treatment, and the rest of us are waiting for phones to be answered and the waiting lists to go down .

And you would expect adults to know these things (about social media). We are taught from childhood to be kind, not to gossip about people, to consider others' feelings, but when it comes to social media and fame, all bets are off and anything goes.
People who were not kind, did gossip and lapped up the meanness towards someone else deserve to feel ashamed and guilty. Adults should not be mean to others and should not tolerate others doing so.

Just wow. Not a part of you can understand why Kate wasn’t ready to reveal and wanted to post a healthy picture. Not a single cell
and the public has been shocking. Facelift, stoma, dead, domestic violence, divorce, facelift. That wasn’t the media. It was the public.
