    Do people really have "fears" over the death of someone in their 90s? I mean, I get that there are many brainworms at play here, but come on, you've had decades to prepare for this.

    I also get that I'm just reacting to some dumbass editor's headline, but that's what we do around here.

      There are a lot of businesses selling trinkets staked on her being alive, not to mention tabloid news. There are also complete weirdos who I don't understand who worship this lady and believe her to be important and wise and blah blah

      They're worried that replacing the nice passive grandma with her shithead son that loves to stick his nose into politics will spell the end of the monarchy.

      And you know, :inshallah: , but I wouldn't hold my breath.
