Monoliths And The Disappearance Of Kate Middleton
This is an odd story. Odd even by standards of 'odd' stories.
As well, it will touch upon the Royal Family of England.
I’m not a ‘royal watcher’ and don’t generally have much interest in talking about them but, maybe I should.
We will get to that matter later.
The Monolith.
Craig Muir, resident of Hay-on-Wye in Powys, Wales, went out for a stroll through the countryside Tuesday morning.
Then he spotted an unusual shiny metallic object in the distance. To Muir, it looked as if it had “just been dropped down from space.”
It was indeed strange. This silver monolith stood in “the middle of nowhere” like some foreboding totem from a future race.
“If you didn’t know anything,” Muir told the media, “to look at it, you could have easily thought it had been dropped off by a U.F.O. or something.”
Muir, 37, who is a stone mason, describes the object as about 10 feet tall, and a foot-and-a-half wide at each point. However, he did not know how deep the object was embedded beneath the earth.
Muir said the structure was a “perfect monolith . . . exactly like the ones they have in Egypt” but “made of steel, and there’s no markings on there at all.”
Muir surmised that the object was not aluminum but rather, wrought from surgical steel, being that “it had too much shine to it.”
“I’d say it was like a surgical steel because obviously whoever’s done it doesn’t want it to rust,” he said, and “very, very smooth, very shiny, very crisp edges.”
Muir concluded that the monolith was of substantial weight as it was sunk into the ground and was unswayed by the heavy winds prevailing that day.
Being a stone mason, Muir had some professional assessments to make. “There’s no obvious weld marks,” he claimed, “It was very, very neat . . . real good job.”
Another fellow traveler also saw the monolith, as he was jogging across the Hay Bluff.
Richard Haynes, speaking to WalesOnline, said “I thought it looked a bit bizarre and might be a scientific media research thing collecting rainwater.”
Haynes took a photo of the object that has since gone viral on social media.
The question that's gnawing at the frontal lobe of my brain, like termites under the floor board, is why?
Why is it there?
This isn’t the first time that a monolith randomly appeared out of nowhere. A spate of them mysteriously popped up across the globe back in 2020.
The first one was found in a remote valley in Utah’s Red Rock Country in November of 2020. It too was tall, new, shiny and metallic. A few days later, more monoliths started cropping up in California, Romania, Switzerland, etc.
No one knows for sure who or what is behind the phenomenon at large, though some have been acknowledged to be art installations.
Naturally, the objects have served as conspiracy theory fodder.
Due to the timing of the appearance of the monoliths, that is, at the high water mark of the Pandemic, they were prescribed to be, at the very least, harbingers of ill fortune.
People revisited the Stanley Kubrick science fiction classic 2001: A Space Odyssey to sniff out clues. The film featured numerous such monoliths.
It was noted how, in the film, the monolith acted as a kind of harbinger for evolutionary change, as it pertained to the human race as a whole.
Its first appearance, in the film, occurs when the ape-man discovers how to use a tool.
Later, a monolith is discovered on the moon, space exploration being the Next Step as it were in man’s evolution.
Finally, astronaut David Bowman sees the edifice during the hallucinatory finale which is anybody’s guess as to the meaning, though a consensus sees astronaut Bowman taking a leap of consciousness, ie. Acid Trip of the Gods.
Naturally, the present day appearance of the Wales monolith has spurred conspiracy theories of its own. Will there be another pandemic around the corner? What kind of paradigm shift does it portend?
Now, this is where our story takes a bizarre turn.
On the same day the monolith story broke, March 11, another story with a very strong Wales connection went viral as well. This one had to do with the disappearance of Kate Middleton, the Princess of Wales, from the public eye.
Was there a connection?
Suspicion regarding her actual whereabouts began brewing as early as January 17 when she was admitted into the hospital for planned abdominal surgery. The shit hit the fan when the first image of her released from Kensington Palace proved to be a photoshopped forgery.
my analysis of the kate middleton photo saga is that they took her face from the vogue cover she did years ago and edited it in pic.twitter.com/JLXts08zp5

It was discovered that the photo of Kate was taken from a years old Vogue cover and plastered over a family portrait.
Kate Middleton, or someone from the the Royal Palace, immediately took to Twitter (X) and posted an apology, stating:
“Like many amateur photographers, I do occasionally experiment with editing. I wanted to express my apologies for any confusion the family photograph we shared yesterday caused. I hope everyone celebrating had a very happy Mother’s Day. C”

Needless to say, this did not quell the rumors but rather, just dumped jet fuel over the conspiracy flames.
How does this relate to the monolith?
As stated, the previous sightings of monoliths occurred during the pandemic and some predict this could be a sign that we are retuning to those dark days with another pandemic looming around the corner.
There are also rumors suggesting that Middleton herself has fallen victim to the dreaded disease. But that’s just one of many conspiracies. In fact, the conspiracy mill is churning full blast.
Here is a look at a few of them.
The Princess of Wales died during her scheduled abdominal surgery and has been replaced by a doppelganger.
Another variation on this theory is that she is currently in a coma and is going to be replaced with a doppelganger.
Others are saying she will be replaced outright by another woman in the same fashion as was Diana, former Princess of Wales. Like father like son is the belief, and the sentiment is that William will do her dirty.
In relation to this, there is talk that Prince William is having an affair with family friend Rose Hanbury.
Conversely, there are rumors that Kate herself is cheating with another man and had got herself knocked up. This accounts for her rapid admission to the hospital under a guise of ‘abdominal surgery’ to take care of her pregnancy.
Another theory claims Kate suffers from an eating disorder. This has been fostered by images from the previous year of bandaged fingers that never seemed to heal. The suggestion is she damaged herself while binge eating then self inducing vomiting.
This story is still developing. Out of control.
