No longer knee deep in royal fandom but apparently Invictus is next month and honestly I cannot wait for a slew of brand dead takes about the military, its procession or how every single military personnel is a war criminal đĽ´đĽ´đĽ´
Let me just say that being active duty Navy is, in fact, exhausting in this shitass fandom. Because suddenly every middle-aged (and I mean 50 - 65 here) conservative white woman in this fandom, which there is a surprising amount of, will sit on their phone with their glass of box wine and Karen the ever living fuck out of the entire thing.
Women who never put on a uniform are suddenly experts of customs, courtesies, regulations, the events' structure, the business side of it, its inner workings, and participate in beratement of the man who runs the thing, himself a veteran. Not to mention they act as if they speak for the entire military community. Lady, no one is bothered except you, and that's only because you have this weird parasocial beef with Prince Harry and his wife. In 'Merica, generally speaking nobody thinks about them; gas prices are too high for that shit.
