With a United Ireland vote possible, we should turn the page on our old symbols and create new symbols that everyone on the Island can rally around.

Here’s a concept:

St. Patrick's Blue + two gold stars representing the two main traditions united, with a nod to the EU flag.

What do you think?

@interlibraryprone The first is good. Needs #teal and like tertiary colors.

Autistic Pride Day is coming up! Here's four new autistic flag options \o/

I've put together some autistic-specific pride flags because too many autistic-specific flags fall into one of two pitfalls:
1. using a solid white infinity symbol - the Métis (a major Indigenous group) have been using this as their flag design since 1815 ​:metis_flag:​
2. using a solid yellow background - this is an intersex flag thing ​:sensory_intersex_flag:​

Here are some alternatives I've made that don't do either! 💛

1. Golden infinity loop on white background. I took the golden infinity off the 2023 Autistic Progress Pride Flag and stuck it on a white background in the style of rainbow-infinity-on-white-background neurodiversity flags. Gold is used for autism because Au=Gold. (I'm not sure I'm the first one to do this design.)

2. Replacing the infinity on the red-yellow-green flag. I took the 2021 red-yellow-green autistic flag and replaced the solid white infinity symbol with a red infinity loop. Red is another common autism flag colour used as a contrast to the blue of Autism Speaks (bc fuck Autism Speaks).

3. Recolour the Disability Pride Flag to make it autistic. Remember how Au=Gold for autism? Let's just go all in. This has gold (Au), titanium (Ti), sulphur (S), titanium (Ti), and carbon (C) for an AuTiSTic colour palatte.

4. Golden infinity + Disability Pride Flag. Sticking the infinity right on the disability pride flag was too busy so I moved the stripes to the corners.

All flags are public domain. Feel free to remix and reuse as desired. SVGs are on Wikimedia Commons along with more alternatives by other people: commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Intervex#Inclusive_options_for_autistic/ND_flags

I'll go ahead and post about this too :penguIn_dance: Also a repost since I wrote about it on my previous instance--this is related to some research for a story of mine, mainly leather associated research, and I thought of making this fun web section for folks to peruse.

Basically, I decided to have some fun redesigning some pride flags for the characters in it. Mayhaps you will enjoy the process.

Feel free to comment! I'd love feedback a lot. :hamsterbreakdance:

Good opportunity to throw out a link to a great video on flags, and the importance of good flag design. https://youtu.be/pnv5iKB2hl4

@seb One of my favorite podcasts, 99 Percent Invisible, has done a few episodes about flags, all the way back to their 6th episode in 2010.

https://99percentinvisible.org/episode/episode-06-99-symbolic/

And the host, Roman Mars, did a TED Talk on the subject.

Time for an #introduction

I started on Mastodon to see how it would fit but now I've decided to deliberately spend more time here.

I'm a husband/father/technology professional (mostly database stuff) with an overarching interest in human flourishing and specific interests in #politics (things like #UncapTheHouse, #OpenPrimaries, and #RankedChoiceVoting would alter political incentives away from extremes), #religion, #education, #FlagDesign, #cooking, #sports (mostly college), and #BasicIncome
