==> Post Homestuck Fictionfolk Flag

Yesterday in a random Homestuck fictionkin server, we, the Rainbow Soulswarm, with the help of Jade @gardens-gnostics and some feedback from our Homestuck Fictionfolk Terms and Symbols Survey, have created a Homestuck fictionfolk flag! Shout out to the submitter Br00klyn and an anonymous submitter whose suggestions made it into the flag.

Jade made the flag base, based on the flag created by now deactivated Tumblr user 8luelight (link to an archive of the original flag and fictionfolk infinity symbol's creation).

Symbol Meanings:

The blue forward arrow is a reference to Homestuck and the forward progression of the community. The other symbol is the fictionfolk infinity symbol in Sburb lime. Together, they represent all Homestuck fictionfolk.

Jade and I talked and think that using ==> 🍀 as a shorthand for being Homestuck fictionfolk could be cool. It's something my system is going to start doing for sure.

Color Meanings:

The top stripe is the green of cherubs' skin. This represents the plural spectrum.

The second stripe (and the fictionfolk infinity symbol!) is the lime of Sburb's logo. These represent community.

The grey stripe is the grey of trolls' skin. This represents embracing diverse fictionfolk experiences.

That's us, together.

While we're looking up at the Artemis II astronauts journeying to the Moon, they're looking back home at us. 

In this image, Earth peeks through the capsule window, reminding us that a view like this relies on the ingenuity and hard work of countless people back home.

In the second image, we see our home planet as a whole, lit up in spectacular blues and browns. A green aurora even lights up the atmosphere.

The larges carpet of bluebells I've ever seen!
