The New Trans Flag, The Trans-Temporal Flag

Do you ever feel like you were born in the wrong Generation?  Perhaps you were assigned Generation X but you identify as Generation Z.  Maybe you are in to Steampunk?  Perhaps the Renaissance Fair?  Maybe you are born in 2005 and you feel like a Baby Boomer.  Or rather you are a Boomer and feel as though you should be a part of the Generation V, the Greatest Generation that won WWII.  Generation W is the Boomer Gang.  Or maybe you are a millennial, which is really a bi-millennial since the original, true millennials are all dead.  The millennials included Leif Erikson and Æthelred II the Unready.  

This flag represents those persons who refuse to remain in the assigned temporal generation.  It is a Trans flag of sorts, Trans-Temporal to be exact.  

The flag represents a double rainbow as a symbolic portal of crossing through time.  If you have ever seen a Double Rainbow in the wild, then you have been invited to be a part the chosen ones for the mystical Trans-Temporal lifestyle. 

The canton on the side represents all the organic tones of humanity.  Likewise on the white chevron has stars painted in infrared and ultra violet.  Thus one needs special goggles or unique biological modifications to see the thirteen stars.  There are 15 stripes based upon Isaac Newton's dissection of visible light; red, orange, yellow, green, blue (cyan), indigo (what we consider blue), and violet.  

So if you don't fit into your assigned Generation feel free to let these colours fly, time is a human construct after all.

Corto Maltese Flag from Suicide Squad 2021

 

One of the joys or sad things about being a vexillologist is that fictional countries stick out like sore thumbs.  Of course its a comic book movie, which requires a level of disbelief.  However Hollywood can't pull one past us.  Nonetheless in DC's Suicide Squad film from 2021, it takes place on the fictional island nation off the coast of South America - Corto Maltese. 

The flag is a tribar of red, yellow and blue with the national coat of arms in the center.  In the red stripe is a yellow Argentinian-link Sun.  In the blue stripe is a yellow star.  The Coat of Arms have two wildly pointed deer that resembles the HBC with two crossed swords behind the shield.
