Queen Elizabeth died 3 years ago today

Never was…

Please. She was 96. And I’m no fan of Charles or any of them really, but kind of see him as a metaphor for my generation politically. The older ones won’t step down even at ages 75 and 80... Gen X has something of a Prince Charles Syndrome.

When Charles finally at last became king, he was age 73 and likely already ill with cancer.

I thought it was funny that WICKED in London announced her death right before the show, which begins with "No One Mourns the Wicked":

Considering the UK is to the west of Europe made it even more ironic.

Really?

So young.

get a life OP

Big Liz could have helped free The People from the yoke of the monarchy, yet did not want to lessen her own privilege.

History will not look kindly on her.

Now that I have some distance from her monarchy I have to say it wasn't much but an endurance race. I actually wish she had retired early and allowed Charles to be King. He is much better. I feel bad that he is old and sick because he is a good king.

Mourn her, no, although I did that at the time. I DO miss her.

As soon as the smoke from the funeral clears, we're all going to see -- and how! -- she did NOTHING for years.

Yes, OP. She died 3 years ago today. And she is still dead.

While I was sort of caught up in all the media and pageantry, and ceremonies, etc. I'm surprised how quickly I got over it. Seems like way more than 3 years. And I honestly do not miss her.

She’s reunited with her fuck buddy Phillip now - so all’s well.

She’s fine, and sends her love.

R12 now talk about lucky, Prince Phillip lived his very best life by becoming a member of the Royal family.

He was one social climber who achieved their dreams, that’s for sure.
