NWBylines, Jennie Kermode takes a contrarian but perhaps more compassionate view of the Princess of Wales’ position, caught as she is between her need for privacy and our need for all to be revealed.

Freedom_Press, I don’t care if a royal has cancer
We care so much about suffering celebrities, those who get our mandated sympathy precisely because we're not supposed to care about each other.

Rasta,
Snowshadow, Not wearing a mask tells me their concern is simply lip service--no value or meaning.
Snowshadow, @Rasta 🤦 😕
<sighs> Aren't you tired of their cognitive dissonance? I know I am fed up.
paul_denton, French Le Premier ministre britannique Rishi Sunak a souhaité vendredi un rétablissement "complet et rapide" à Kate Middleton. Des critiques se font entendre face au gouvernement ultra-libéral, qui laisse le système de santé publique sombrer. Plus de 300.000 Britanniques apprennent qu'ils sont atteints d'un cancer tous les ans mais les retards de diagnostics sont considérables. Le gouvernement a fait du cancer "une grande cause nationale"

billmason, Generally speaking, I don't care at all about the day-to-day drama that is the British royal family.
But Kate Middleton's cancer announcement is such a perfect example of "chill the hell out, you never know what the other person is going through" I felt compelled to take note.
Carry on. And fuck cancer.
billyjoebowers, What did people think the answer was going to be?
The whole thing was weird.
raymondpert, #KateMiddleton says she is undergoing chemotherapy for cancer
> Kate, the Princess of Wales, has #cancer and is undergoing #chemotherapy, she said Friday in a stunning announcement that follows weeks of speculation about her health and whereabouts.
> Her condition was disclosed in a video message recorded Wednesday and broadcast Friday, coming after relentless speculation on social media ever since she was hospitalized in January for unspecified abdominal surgery.

CultureDesk, The Kate Middleton saga reaches a new low as an investigation has been launched at the clinic where the Princess of Wales underwent abdominal surgery. Claims were made that at least one member of staff attempted to access private medical records, Hello magazine reports.

Lazarou, Imagine 'going missing' is the most interesting thing you've ever done. Says a lot about a Woman's place in the British Monarchy, doesn't it?
Very Colonial attitude to gender really....
alexanderhay, Could the cryptozoologists just do the decent thing and find the elusive creature known as '#KateMiddleton'? At this stage, I suspect she is purely mythological, and a blank slate upon which our present culture projects its fears and suppressed desires.
Either that, or she's getting divorced.
SecularJeffrey, I think #KateMiddleton just took some clothes off our clothesline and stole a pie that was cooling on our kitchen windowsill.
mockeree, Reliable sighting of #KateMiddleton lays fears to rest

#60MinutesAustralia asks where is #katemiddleton ?
We are paying a huge amount of money for the #saxecoburggotha family and Katie's #stoma treatment...or was it a #hysterectomy ?

Wen, @raghnallborders I don't think I will bother, but the wastrels are drumming up a lots of business for the meeja.
raghnallborders, (edited ) @Wen summary, best read in an ozzy accent.
Nobody is willing to say where Katy is. The establishment is tighter lipped than the English exchequer. Chuck has an aggressive cancer but they will say only that it is cancer. They are using that to deflect the attention on Katy. Succession planning is being sped up to turn Billy boy into king Billy. The establishment is concerned that they are on a shoogly peg.
There. Saved you.
developerjustin, Telling my kids that Maniac Mansion was a Buckingham Palace RPG.
developerjustin, Also, the @IceCubesApp image descriptions are incredible. Like…this physically shocked me. I was expecting basic OCR but it literally described the image.

Gigi, Mastodon giving 0 fucks about #KateMiddleton is hilarious to me.
Can we do like Bim🇧🇧 and rid ourselves of them now?
Add three more letters and yikes! #KateMiddleton #katemiddletonisdead #katemiddletonisabully #katemiddletonisntreal #KateMiddletonCatherineHerzoginvonCam...
Cherrycola, Nothing can pull my focus from her rumored BBL, the affairs, the photo mishaps, but most of all the memes.
And I mean nothing! I'm all in Gigi! The most fun twitter has been in years.
Cherrycola, The idea that she is photoshopping her own image is the absolute best part. Their PR team was so fired for that one.
Yes the princess of Wales who probably doesn't even steep her own tea is definitely sitting behind her Mac computer editing photos. How do I know it was edited on a Mac? Because the BBC reported on it of course!

europeanspodcast, Our Twitter feed is 100% Kate Middleton Photoshop drama; our Mastodon feed is 0% Kate Middleton Photoshop drama.
I’m torn between feeling relieved and also very much enjoying the drama 🤪

anderseknert, The only thing truly sensational about the #KateMiddleton photo is how someone managed to get 3 kids to all smile in the same picture. That can't be real.
anderseknert, @airwhale Right, but that's certainly stretching the definition of "real", isn't it? :)
airwhale, (edited ) I'd say it certainly would not meet the definition of “journalistic” and "documentary” but IMHO is well within the definition of "artistic”.
I read the photo to be on the artistic side, a staged family photo, but we may disagree. The intent is clear, to put the nation at ease about her condition. It might work, but we're no closer to the “truth”. (Also, she’s entitled to medical privacy.)
As to what's “real”, we'll need a few beers before getting into that… 😄
