James, Viscount Severn and Lady Louise Windsor pay their respects in The Palace of Westminster after the procession for the Lying-in State of Queen Elizabeth II on September 14, 2022 in London, England. Queen Elizabeth II's coffin is taken in procession on a Gun Carriage of The King's Troop Royal Horse Artillery from Buckingham Palace to Westminster Hall where she will lay in state until the early morning of her funeral.

I cannot imagine wasting hours of my life lining up to look at a the Queen's coffin.

It's baffling.

#imarriedpastarambles #'but she was a great woman you disrespectful fuckwit!' i hear the royalists cry #i have more important things in life to worry about than old liz in her coffin #why can't they just do her funeral and be done with it so we can all go back to focusing on how we're going to survive the winter #queen elizabeth ii #lying in state

Who is guarding the Queen when she lies in state? The soldiers keeping vigil in Westminster Hall

The guards do a 6 hour shift while on this duty. Standing stock still for 6 hours. I truly honour them as they honour our late Queen 🙏💜🙏

The Scottish people pay tribute to one of their own

We brits do love a good queue. We now have the prospect of a queue being formed by people who have been told they can't join the existing 5 mile queue for at least 6 hours. So what else are they going to do but hang around and queue to be first in the queue when the queue reopens.

#queen elizabeth #lying in state #this could get messy #we love a good queue #and you know people will have brought booze with them #it's friday #it's a long wait #and what if someone pushes in....

At 4am this morning I finally got in to Westminster Hall and paid my respects to the late Queen Elizabeth II. It was such a surreal and emotional experience.

The queue to see Queen Elizabeth II lying in state—which, on September 16th, reached five miles—did everything that a queue could do. It snaked. It stopped. It started. It ambled. People read novels and ate sandwiches that they had prepared the night before and hustled along when gaps appeared. “The queue was an act of belonging, and the queue was an end in itself,” Sam Knight writes. Read Knight’s reflection on the long line of mourners headed to pay their respects to the former monarch:http://nyer.cm/0IC88el

"aphobia doesn't exist"

bitch literally not that long ago an aroace youtuber animator was insulted by almost half of its community for being it

#i did some research about it and found out that the problem was principally that she had previous experience in the romantic area #so people just didn't take her seriously and said she was lying #even though she stated multiple times that she wasn't comfortable in those situations #now things are more calmed but damn #mind your own bussiness #i believe she knows more about herself than you #sorry if i offended you with this comment but i hate how aro/ace/aroace people are always left behind #insulted and rejected because they “dont know what they are talking about” #or because they “just have to wait for the right person” #or because they are “psychopaths and they are missing something” #i love that animator and she helped me realise a lot about myself #and now that i know the context i think i will start making a list and killing aphobes one by one #aromantic #arospec #asexual #aroace #acespec

This double line of baseball fans ends on the other side of Yankee Stadium, where the entrance to the Rotunda is located. On August 18, 1948, thousands of people from all walks of life stood on line during the day for the opportunity of passing by the body of Babe Ruth, who had died of cancer two days before, as it lay in state in the rotunda of the ballpark where he achieved his greatest fame.
