This shirt is dry-clean only. That means… it’s dirty.

Aktchually, per Wikipedia:

The U.S. flag is defined by 4 U.S.C. § 5, executive order and official government standards:

The flag of the United States for the purpose of this chapter shall be defined according to sections 1 and 2 of this title and Executive Order 10834 issued pursuant thereto.

Executive Order 10834 Proportions And Sizes Of Flags And Position Of Stars[5] prescribes the design of the flag as well as Federal Specification DDD-F-416F.[6]

And the referenced specifications are very clear:

Though I do like their patriotic trans pride flag design. I would love to see a real one flying.

I assume you mean the “h” word I used. If that is a slur than I apologize, I did not know. It is a common industry term for genderless electrical connectors.

Beware the forbidden extension cable.

I didn’t notice that! I wonder who originally made that edit, and when. Google image search comes up with both versions from multiple sources.

Another strong contender, to be sure.

Also saying “im cishet” is so odd lol.

Yeah, reading back I see that it’s a clumsy choice of words. I’ll work on that in the future.

His left arm even seems to suggest his hand is between his knees

This is actually a crop of a famous photo. In the full photo he is nude, with his left hand between his knees and his forearm just covering his privates.

Now I want to see how they enforce it.

Police Chief Kevin Hall, asked Monday what officers would do in response to a 911 call about immigration officers violating the city’s law, was clear: observe, attempt to keep the peace, and otherwise do nothing.

“SPD cannot and will not interfere with a federal law enforcement officer,” Hall said.

Instead, the law would potentially give residents the ability to sue the federal government and other parties for violations, …

So it’s window dressing, as expected.

Good on Spokane’s city council for at least making a symbolic gesture, I suppose. It’s more than most cities are bothering to do.

That’s why you buy heavy guns.

“Hey, you know that project you poured your heart into for months? We want you to make fun of it on live TV.”

That’s cool! Though (and I don’t mean to make light of anyone) all I can think of is the old TV test pattern…

I Googled “queer pride flags” to better understand this, and I feel like I have gone down a rabbit hole. There are so many flags…

For example, using absolute numbers from Wikipedia…
South Africa: 27,272
Haiti + Philippines + Ecuador: 28,509

That map would look very different.

You’re right that using absolute numbers in the first place is bad practice.

The choice of regions feels cherry-picked to inflate the blue area on the map. Why else would they include Mongolia, or include only the least-dense regions of the US and Russia while excluding the major population centers?

While South Africa certainly has a lot of murders, both absolute and per capita, this map could easily be draw with a lot less blue on it.

That’s the power of consent!

I used to hike, bike, and trail run solo. It was fun and freeing, but dangerous. After one too many close calls I don’t do that anymore.

The ideal is to find the right person to go with. Being with someone that you really mesh with, and who moves at the same pace, is 100 times better than going solo.
