And THAT, my friends, is how you change things with a Sharpie in this administration

Yes Pete, everyone definitely respects you and thinks you’re super cool and tough now. Definitely not somebody who has ever pissed themselves after a whiskey binge.

Hey that happens to the best of us.

yeah I mean hey I am not throwing that stone in this glass house.

Would you throw it as an axe in Times Square?

crazycraw@crazypeople.online · 4 pts · 259d

well, yeah, with whiskey® at the helm, anything is possible.™

This was not a mistake.

Is it the ones blowing the dog whistle or the ones hearing it that are too dumb to make it subtle?

I just checked and his actual name is Peter Brian Hegseth.

It looks ridiculous that the sign only has his nickname.

Putting his real name like this on the sign would at least make him seem like an adult:

Peter B. Hegseth

I guess we should be glad for the sloppy execution, it helps future generations to identify these dipshits.

Well, they're using his preferred name rather than birth name... they wouldn't prevent anyone else the same courtesy, would they?

Like Miguel Cruz

I have been in several situations where preferred names are not permited in official documentations.

In those engagements you are introduced with your full name, but are welcome to ask participants to use your preferred name.

It just can't be on official documentations

Damn, man is named after two family guy characters

I’m enjoying the clear belly fat on display. The very same fat he has criticised career service members for having, those much older than him with far more distinguished service records and the respect of those they command. Wonder if Kegsbreath and Boof Kavanaugh shotgunned bears together back in the day.

You paid him a complement there. “Distinguished service record” is just a murder high score.

Corkyskog@sh.itjust.works · 2 pts · 258d (1 reply)

That's just his inflamed liver

Man these guys are full on gloves off and Americans just shaking it off like it's just some bluster. Y'all are so fucked it's not funny. What does it feel like to lose your democracy?

turdburglar@piefed.social · 26 pts · 259d

it’s not great.

0/10 stars. would not recommend.

This is a mask falling, not a sea change. Democracy in the United States has never been more than a fantasy.

FundMECFS@anarchist.nexus · 2 pts · 258d

This. Secretary of war is more accurate for the past 50 years than Secretary of defence. This is just a mask off moment.

Could have easily replaced it if he wanted to but he did this on purpose

snooggums@piefed.world · 20 pts · 259d

I don't think it is possible for that to happen without it being intentional.

OMG... Thought this was a shop...

SailorFuzz@lemmy.world · 9 pts · 259d (1 reply)

You mean its not a shop? Wtf... no... wtf?

Kondeeka@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 258d

There's a second angle in another thread, I couldn't find a single inconsistency (same exact rotation of the teapot for example) so I think it's indeed real.

snooggums@piefed.world · 10 pts · 259d

Wink wink nudge nudge.

pastermil@sh.itjust.works · 9 pts · 259d

That's a foreshadowing!

The extra s is because he's a sssssnake wearing a fleshsuit.

Scumfuck will likely to experience more mutiny.
