I wonder what flag I should fly

I'm not much of a flag waver. I put out the American flag on the Fourth of July, Veteran's Day, Memorial Day and Voting day. But wonder if I should switch it out for something else.

Right now I'm sort of torn between the Ukrainian flag and the Canadian flag - just to show who's side I'm on.

Or you could simply hang the American flag upside down...

I think of Heinlein's bit about "the rainbow flag of Terra..."

If you want a really inclusive flag, just print a picture of Earth onto a black background I guess...

There used to be a flag with the famous photo of Earthrise seen from the moon printed on it. I don't know who made it or sold it, but a lot of hippies and space fans used that flag.

I used have one of those! ... Actually I think I might still have it in a box somewhere. I found it on sale in one of those beachfront shops that sells 'novelty' postcards and knick-knacks of all places, years and years ago, and being the big space nerd that I am..

Indeed! I never bought one, because I couldn't afford it, and I have no place to fly it (my house didn't have a flagpole) So haul it out if you can find it, and "let your freak flag fly"!
