23. I realized from recent history re:Diana that Meghan might have a hard time. What's going on

Sat Oct 19, 2019, 03:28 PM

Oct 2019

now is totally unreasonable. One positive action I learned about recently is that Prince Harry, Duke of Sussex and Meghan, Duchess of Sussex (Sussex is one of my ancestral homelands) have entered a lawsuit against the British tabloid the Mail. If Harry and Meghan can't get satisfaction in a British court then I don't know who can. FYI: I put one person I encountered in this thread on Total Ignore. Thank goodness we have remedies when we find we're dealing with fools and miscreants.
