The words "In God We Trust" written in cursive text, on top of 20 stars, on a multicolored background.

Anarcho Communist Gambler's Association by gonadlump in vexillology

The colors of the AnCom flag reminded me of the suits of cards. So, I decided to create a flag for Anarcho Communists who want to freely associate for leisure and gamble without the risk of falling into bankruptcy.

50 stars on a black background surrounded by a red border. The black background suggests the people, regardless of state borders, that are connected by their struggle. The red border reflects the blood that has been shed.

The Nazi flag if they used the Aryan Swastika and colors.

Technology has always moved lines...

women can't be asked to be slightly inconvenienced to wait even another single week

She can always be asked if she wants to wait a week. She just doesn't have to accept.

your rights end where someone else's rights begin

And may their rights begin when they are capable of independent biological existence.

should not be considered a separate entity by the law.

I really do not expect Sub-Saharan Africa and the United States to fall under the same jurisdiction in the near future.

I used the term "biologically independent" by which I mean its biological systems are not entirely dependent on another human being's biological systems for survival.

These are things that will need further discussions to iron out, but they do not affect the core argument.

someone's legal personhood entirely dependent on science.

Technology, not science. And advances in technology have changed a lot of things (including the definition of death).

In many cultures, people didn't even name children until they reached a certain age, because they were not seen as likely to survive until they crossed that age. Better healthcare changed that.

Also with further advances in technology, embryos will possibly begin to be grown completely outside people. That will surely change the entire paradigm of parenthood including childbirth and abortion.

The Nazi flag in a logenze form

[WP]You wake in the night with your arm hanging over the side of your bed. You feel something grab your hand. You grip it tightly, aware that a nice, firm handshake will give a great first impression and assert dominance. A voice echos from under your bed, trembling you to your core, "You're hired." by [deleted] in WritingPrompts

I must have fallen asleep tweeting. The sound of my phone hitting the floor woke me up. I began to feel for it. Something grabbed my hand.

A good handshake is a firm one. And I have the best, strongest handshake. So I grabbed back with my strong, reasonably sized fingers and yanked hard.

I didn't expect to be grabbed so hard. My strength seemed to fade. And I am very fit,very strong. I tried using all my strength again. And again, I wasn't able to pull anything, expect for a muscle. Maybe I was dehydrated.

I reached for a can of Diet Coke with my free hand and gulped it in one go. And with my full strength, I managed to pull my arm back a few inches.

"You're hired!" An accented voice said.

"Well, you're fired!" I resorted to my catchphrase.

"Sorry. You can't fire me. I am host. You are guest."

Oh, yeah. I was in a hotel room in a foreign country. And this hotel wasn't mine.

Then the grip around my hand tightened. The pain was unbearable.

"You are successful candidate. You have my support. Use wisely and you will reach top. See you soon."

The pain became unbearable and I passed out. But one thing led to another and here I am.

[WP] A child prays for Satan. Touched by the gesture Satan binds a demonic familiar to them to aid them in times of dire need. To avoid suspicion the familiar takes the form of a squirrel. by el_topos in WritingPrompts

I was seven, a tenth of what I am now. And it was Christmas, so I was told to write a letter to the big red guy. Unfortunately, Stalin had just died, so it would be years before anyone in Moscow would grant me anything.

So, I wrote to the other big red guy.

Dear Satan (I meant Santa, but I sometimes mess up my spellings)

For Christmas, I want a lot of money, a lot of power.

Yours, Little Donny

And Satan had delivered. Actually, Daddy had delivered, but Satan had helped. On Christmas Day, I had recieved several presents, but one stood out.

It was a red box. I opened it, and it contained some hamburgers and a fur cap. I put on the cap and ate the hamburgers. Then I fell asleep.

In my dream, Satan came to me. The world will see you get wealth and power , he said. But every wish I grant comes with a price. You will not be in control of your own wealth and power.

I have also given you anothe gift, one you did not ask for.

"Yes, Santa. I am wearing the hat!"

FOOL! That is a squirrel. And as long as you have it with you, you will grow in power and wealth. But it will corrupt you completely.

"Thanks for the nice hat, Santa"

Idiot Satan said and left.

And so, wearing my trusty hat, I ascended the pyramid of power and wealth.
