Even if that were what he's doing, I would still avoid using it as I'm a supporter of the public domain on principle. If something is essentially public domain, it should be fully public domain.

It was meant to include everyone under the rainbow so trans people and others are already included.

pride flag indeed.

The progress flag is copyrighted by one Daniel Quasar, and he sporadically exercises his copyright on people who use or sell designs involving the progress flag. Or so I've heard. Anyway, for this reason, I avoid using it.

This is the very reason I'm surprised. These flags come and go by the winds of memetics; so why is it that this design is somehow able to propagate so well despite being so clearly visually incoherent?

I'm not necessarily complaining, I'm just astonished that it caught on. Like imagine if a really discordant and structureless song became super popular.

Constantly means habitually. I can't even begin to formulate an apology for persistent spike though.

One of them is blue and the other one is red. Umm... anything else?

Literally the entire planet remembers this. Even people who were not born yet.

It's to my benefit if other people take the time to fix their broken and bigoted family members. I wouldn't recommend someone sever times. Just because you have had experience with stubborn people who can't change doesn't mean most people are like that.

Just so everyone knows -- in case you hadn't heard -- you can save 30% on your car insurance by switching to Geico.

I'd be at a loss if I saw that, too.

Famous physicist and misogynist "Surely you're Joking" Mr. Feynman comes to mind. Didn't even know you can't have both lemon and milk in you tea.
