Oh man, I just feel so bad for Harry. Such a struggle and such a hard life he leads. Poor baby. Just another virtue signalling celebrity nimrod. https://www.thedailybeast.com/...ut-of-bed?ref=scroll Prince Harry: Eco-Anxiety Leaves Me Struggling to Get Out of Bed He might look like he’s got it made: a vast personal fortune, a beautiful wife, celebrity friends (and easy access to their fleet of private jets), most of his own hair, and free food. But don’t let these outward trappings of privilege and good fortune fool you into thinking that the private life of Prince Harry conforms with his happy-go-lucky exterior. Indeed, Prince Harry says he is so crushed by the state of the planet that he sometimes struggles to get out of bed in the morning. Harry’s reluctance to rise from the royal scratcher would once have been attributed to his party-loving lifestyle, but these days, with late-night japes in Kensington nightclubs a mere memory, it’s more existential fears that haunt the prince. He made the surprising revelation in a conversation with 18-year-old South African student Peter Oki, who was a guest at one of the many engagements Harry and Meghan are attending during their tour of Africa. After speaking to Harry, Oki told a reporter for the Daily Telegraph: “Harry said that he often woke up and felt overwhelmed by too many problems in the world and that sometimes it’s hard to get out of bed in the mornings because of all the issues, but he wanted to use their platform to enable grass-roots change and to try and create a better society.” The comments came after Meghan left correspondents scratching their heads when she referred, in an on-camera interview, to a global “consciousness crisis” over mental health. Harry’s comments drew immediate comparison to the doom-mongering of his father, Prince Charles, who said in July that there were just 18 months left to save the world (so, 16 now). Harry may well have inherited his eco-depression from his father. Ahead of last week’s global “climate strike,” during which children were encouraged to skip school to protest the response to climate change, researchers warned that children are increasingly suffering anxiety and grief about climate change, and urged parents to discuss the issue with their kids in an age-appropriate way. (So, not “The world will end in 18 months, kids.”) A spokesperson for the Climate Psychology Alliance (CPA), a group of psychologists and researchers said, “There is no doubt that they are being emotionally impacted... That real fear from children needs to be taken seriously by adults.” Swedish teenage activist Greta Thunberg, the teenage icon of climate-change protest whose disgusted scowl at Donald Trump at the UN went viral this week, told world leaders who had failed to act on climate change that they had “stolen her childhood” and broke down in tears during an emotional address. She said, “People are suffering, people are dying, entire ecosystems are collapsing. We are in the beginning of a mass extinction and all you can talk about is money and fairy tales of eternal economic growth.”This message has been edited.

It used to be that English kings and princes rode across the countryside instilling fear into those they encountered. Now they cower under the sheets crying like Swedish adolescent girls. At least at one point in the past they were man enough to settle This continent.

Apparently, being a snowflake can be a real bitch. We should all feel real bad for poor little Harry. | |||

This is based on the second hand account of a conversation from someone with an agenda speaking to the media....sound familiar? I don't know if the good Prince is a total wuss or not, but I am going to wait until there is an actual credible report of his delicate nature before piling on. ______________________________ “I'd like to know why well-educated idiots keep apologizing for lazy and complaining people who think the world owes them a living.” ― John Wayne | |||

Women will do that to you. I agree and I'm sure deep down, he wishes he could be That guy again. That said, I feel no sympathy for him. Life goes on your majesty. I'd rather be hated for who I am than loved for who I'm not. | |||

Sick and tired of Harry and Meghan. “Prince Harry was pictured holding a self help guide on the second day of his tour of South Africa with Meghan Markle and baby Archie this week. The book, Everyday Ubuntu, was written by Mungi Ngomane, granddaughter of Archbishop Desmond Tutu, and refers to the term 'Ubuntu' - an expression described locally as 'a way of living'. On Monday, the term was referred to in Meghan's speech about gender-based violence during their visit to Cape Town's 'murder capital' township. 'I am here with you and I am here for you and I thank you so much for showing my husband and I the spirit of Ubuntu, and I look forward to our time over the next few days together', she said. And now it has been revealed that the book, given to Harry during his stay, explains how you can incorporate 'Ubuntu' - a way of peaceful living and treating others as equals - into your everyday life…” https://mol.im/a/7508267 Serious about crackers | |||
