I just read about Harry and Meghan's new baby. It's a girl named "Lilibet" Lilly Diana [View all]

While I am not a fan of the royal family, I am glad for Harry and Meghan, especially since they lost a baby last year.

I also like the fact that they are honoring the Queen by using her childhood name of "Lilibet." That's nice.

It was crappy that so many people were talking about the kids' skin color. The hell with them.
