that Maryland flag is fire

[-] Donjuanme@lemmy.world 19 points 5 months ago

It's everything, everything but subdued.

[-] Zwiebel@feddit.org 47 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

Here's the German pride flag! #pridemonth 1000018183

[-] blackluster117@possumpat.io 58 points 5 months ago

You sure it isn't a fire warning scale instead?

[-] ChicoSuave@lemmy.world 37 points 5 months ago

Or a low res sunset?

Self-care scale to help flame atronachs determine if they're starting to experience burnout

[-] muggedTassi@feddit.de 36 points 5 months ago

I can't tell if this is ragebait, you're just trolling, you're genuinely unaware OR if I have missed the moment when this flag's meaning got reclaimed

[-] Sop@lemmy.blahaj.zone 15 points 5 months ago

Either way it’s tasteless.

[-] SpartacusJones@lemmy.ml 38 points 5 months ago

I was out of the loop, so I'll leave this here for anyone else who is as well: https://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Stolzmonat

Thank you both for pointing out that this is not a positive symbol.

[-] idiomaddict@feddit.de 14 points 5 months ago

What is this flag, other than a striated version of the modern German flag?

It was created by the German right-wing. OP says he was trying to reclaim it, but I dont think there's anything to reclaim here.

[-] Zwiebel@feddit.org 7 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

This is just a little step towards reclaiming it :) (And a little trollin)

[-] stebo02@lemmy.dbzer0.com 38 points 5 months ago

I made one with the flag of the Flemish nationalists, who are usually anti-lgbt, to piss them off.

[-] nicknonya@lemmy.blahaj.zone 19 points 5 months ago

the lion is a symbol of pride

[-] stebo02@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 5 months ago

pride in being a racist yes

[-] cactus_head@programming.dev 2 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

NGL, this goes hard

Its like the lion is hypnotizing me with his dancing to be gayer

[-] zifk@sh.itjust.works 29 points 5 months ago

maaaan I really wanted the Maryland flag to be official, but it was made by someone on /r/vexillology

[-] nicknonya@lemmy.blahaj.zone 17 points 5 months ago

it's official in my heart

[-] GraniteM@lemmy.world 8 points 5 months ago

/r/vexillology is one of the only things I miss from the other site.

[-] princessnorah@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 5 months ago

Do you subscribe to !vexillology@lemmy.world at all? It's decently big, but you're right about missing the one from the other side.

[-] janet_catcus@lemmy.blahaj.zone 24 points 5 months ago

actually, maryland looks sick

[-] katja@lemmy.blahaj.zone 6 points 5 months ago

Yes, literally. Probably contagious too. Watch out or you'll catch the gay. Ohh, so that's the plan. Sneaky, I like it.

[-] janet_catcus@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 5 months ago

come to gay maryland, flag is sick but it's absolutely safe to kiss, we swear by it!

j/k am not from there, but like the design xD

[-] Maggoty@lemmy.world 3 points 5 months ago

I am, and I endorse this message.

[-] dog_@lemmy.world 3 points 5 months ago

Tell me about it.

[-] Appleseuss@lemmy.world 3 points 5 months ago

Right here. Our flag is the best US state flag, with maybe some competition from Arizona.

[-] Maggoty@lemmy.world 2 points 5 months ago

Nice try Big Data you'll never find out I'm from Maryland!

[-] dog_@lemmy.world 2 points 5 months ago
[-] Timecircleline@sh.itjust.works 9 points 5 months ago

Am I the only one who doesn't mind the Brazilian pride flag?

[-] Skullgrid@lemmy.world 8 points 5 months ago
[-] stebo02@lemmy.dbzer0.com 36 points 5 months ago

there's different versions but this one doesn't look too bad

[-] Rozauhtuno@lemmy.blahaj.zone 14 points 5 months ago

I love it.

But also, aw my eyes!

[-] Blyfh@lemmy.world 12 points 5 months ago

The yellow stripe clashing with the diamond looks very janky to me :/

[-] Zoomboingding@lemmy.world 6 points 5 months ago

Yeah, the diamond should be the black/brown and the rainbow in the middle should be the trans colors

[-] stebo02@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 5 months ago

fair, they should have done the diamond also in stripes, similar to the progress pride flag

[-] gerryflap@feddit.nl 2 points 5 months ago

This one is so much better than the Dutch pride flag in the post. It's awesome

[-] Beegzoidberg@beehaw.org 9 points 5 months ago

Does anyone else have trouble loading catbox files or the main site?

[-] fossphi@lemm.ee 2 points 5 months ago

Yep, sometimes they just don't load for me. I use Thunder as my client

[-] Wilzax@lemmy.world 8 points 5 months ago

Maryland just works TOO well

[-] Hobbes_Dent@lemmy.world 8 points 5 months ago

That Maryland design is amazing.

[-] Chef_Boyardee@lemm.ee 6 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

I love my state's flag. It is a great design. Got a giant one in my basement.

Edit: tried to add a picture. Not cool enough to figure it out.

[-] nicknonya@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 5 months ago

on my end pictures are just a custom link with an exclamation point added to the start, so ![image description here](image url here)

[-] Maggoty@lemmy.world 6 points 5 months ago

This is just perfect because the Maryland flag was already a Unity flag post civil war. Now it's a Pride Unity Flag.
