The Catherine Earrings

To honour the Princess of Wales, EARSASS have made a pair of earrings in her honour, called ‘The Catherine’.

The earrings have a diameter of 2.5cm and feature glass beads that are either, 14k gold plated or silver plated with 925 silver post.

The small glass beaded hoops are unique, beautifully elegant and timeless – just like the Princess.

The earrings sold out within two hours of launching.

Liz Truss unveils resignation honours list - BBC News

FARCICAL...

The brainless idiot Truss, who crashed the British economy almost overnight as a very short-lived Prime Minister, now gets to honour her accomplices and supporters, ffs.

She's a laughing stock, a fool and a national embarrassment, but still gets to hand out awards and Lordships.

Labour's shadow Cabinet Office minister Jonathan Ashworth said: "This list is proof positive of Rishi Sunak's weakness and a slap in the face to working people who are paying the price of the Tories crashing the economy.

"Honours should be for those committed to public service, not rewards for Tory failure."

Deputy Lib Dem leader Daisy Cooper said: "Truss handing out gongs after blowing a hole in the public finances and leaving families reeling from spiralling mortgage costs calls this whole honours system into disrepute."

You can say that again...

Pratchett’s writing is often misunderstood politically because he comes from a sort of white background alien to a lot of North Americans tumblr readers, whose parents and/or grandparents would have been white whitecollar or adjacent workers trying to hitch a ride on the corporate 20thC boom. However thankfully I’m equipped to interpret it because Pratchett’s native ideological ground is Philosophy of My Dad

#kelsey liveblogs discworld #great writer fantastic sophisticated cunning intelligent etc. I find North Americans overrate his leftism #the sense of egalitarianismthat pervades his work is a lot less of a rigorous socialism or anti patriarchal/colonial philosophy #it’s a lot more of the ambient left-sympathizing lower middle class British trade-union-adjacentism.#we can’t honour the writer properly without interpreting his works directly. that is. they’re very much keynesian more than they are leftist

i did a booboo and replied to a post about Harry giving some military award.

now i'm being educated by americans about his jubilee medals. being british in the romance world is hard, guys 😂😂

#i know what invictus is #i know what jubilee medals are #i know what commonwealth medals are #i still don't know why it's acceptable for a british prince to give americans military honours #and i'd say the same thing about any damn member of the BRF too

During the First World War, Queen Mary (26 May 1867 – 24 March 1953) paid her respects in 1916 at local memorial shrines in East London.

The ‘Roll of Honour’ (seen in the second photograph) listed over 100 men from around this street in Hackney who had enlisted.

#Doodles #TSP #Stanley #Me while reading: Now don't make a papercraft okay? Don't make a papercraft don't make a papercraft don't make a-#Predictably lol #It's the kind of structure that invites speculation! Who would you choose and what would their name be and how would they adapt #And The Stanley Parable wasn't even out at the time!! FJkldsafdf #Me when anything: I want to #Stanley would be so fun to play as ♪ Small but close-knit cast and since it's an institute it should have accommodations for his mutism #And he's no stranger to painful and confusing situations haha #You can see my indecision on which sign language Stanley knows haha #He never speaks so we don't know what accent Stanley would have but we know the Narrator is British! So #But I also don't know any British Sign Language and I know it's different than ASL òuò;#Granted my knowledge of ASL is far far far from fluent but I do know some at least so if /I/ was the one playing as him-#Anyway moot point since languages are directly translated anyway :P Though I wonder about sign language #I assume there were some nonverbal patients I just haven't seen any myself :0 #I have also made a Narrator card to match Stanley 😔#Actually - hehe - I had a lot of fun picking their ''real'' names ♪#The Narrator's was pretty easy honestly I knew I had to give him the first name Kevan and then I wanted to keep his last initial #So I went with ''Baker'' since it's a common name :) Very cute!#And then for Stanley since I headcanon him as being Greek/Latino - heavier on the Greek side - I gave him a Greek name!#Again same first initial - couple letters even for that ''St-'' sound :) - and scanned through some Greek last names #And liked the sound of Psomas with Stefano - but ♪ You'll never guess ♫#It's a similarly common name for a reason - ''Psomas'' translates to ''bread maker''#Kevan and Stefano Baker they're husbands fr your honour #Hghhghh I just think it's so cute!! And I didn't do it on purpose it was just a happy accident!! I love them <3

Cam then gifts Iseul and Grace their presents. Grace gets a cute succulent plant that she can put in in her office, and she thanks Cam before safely putting it away in the guest room where she'll pack it up. Cam then gifts Iseul a red grim figurine. "Thanks Cammy, it'll look nice on my coffee table." Iseul says, grinning.

Plus, Grace shows off her ring* to Min Jun and Cam, who ooh and aah over it. "Nice." Cam says, eyeing the gem. "I hope I don't sound too sappy, but I'm so honoured** to join your family and you all have been so lovely and welcoming." Grace says, and Min Jun, Paenji, and Cam all smile. "We were waiting for my sis to finally propose so you could officially join us." Min Jun adds playfully and Iseul grins. "Seriously, Grace, we thought of you as part of our family since Iseul introduced you and now it's just official." Paenji says warmly, and Grace smiles, her eyes tearing up. "Thank you, Paenji." She says. "Yeah, you're one of us now, auntie Grace which means we can roast and tease each other. Plus, I'll teach you curses and jokes in Korean and you'll teach me some in Urdu." Cam says, and Grace laughs. "I'd like that, Cam." She says.

#ts4 #mysims #Kang Min Jun #Kang Paenji #Grace Siddqui #Iseul Kang #Cameron Kang #*it won't go on her left hand but eh its alright 🤔😅#**my fasting for Ramadan brain was like yeah shes British lets go with honoured instead of honored 😂
