• can you imagine being in the military and having to dress up as some revolutionary officer fancy lad. I mean any costume in general besides their current official really betrays how much theatrical BS dominates the military.

    it’s like some sergeant bozo comes in wearing all his dress shit for like parade shit, but it has all his specific ribbons and awards, and he is proud of it because all his boys wear the same shit yadda yadda, and it’s only tweaked every few years so there’s some continuity to it being The Uniform.

    and then somebody way higher up is like, “here’s fluffy pirate shirt, white tights, pantaloons, big buckled shoes with high heel and here’s a feather for your cap.”

    it’s all heavy wool,.layers of BS, and now he’s gotta march parade in fucking a DC summer. lmao, eat shit, welcome to the Disney parade, “hero”.
