      Should be able to finish it, but the main parts are done at least.

      I reached out to eatham who was making Bluey and the Aussie flag to ask if they had a plan for the bottom right corner next to Bluey. They also seemed to change what their design was due to taking up other people’s canvas space, so I asked if they wanted us to keep the southern cross star.

          They did ask us to leave it, but also admitted that they didn’t think they would get much done. Their design looks to be quite big and ambitious if they were going through with it. Not to mention it encapsulates a lot of other communities areas/designs.

          We can leave it for now and got over it once everything else is done?

            “Tell him he’s dreaming”. I just looked on the Australia community and there’s little to no discussion about it. I’m Australian, and I think our flag sucks! COYG.

              Also Aussie and also vastly unimpressed by how dated the flag is and unrepresentative of our modern nation.

              Change the anthem as well while we’re at it. Bit dull… girt by sea? It’s like they couldn’t think of anything else worthwhile to say, lol

            yeah, let’s finish our bit first. I’m honestly a bit surprised how little they’ve gotten done, tbh.

              For what it’s worth, if we have time, before wiping out that star, we should probably add something for Jota. Even if it’s just like, a small text “rip jota”. Especially given we seem to be the only football presence on here other than the MLP football.

                I’d also like to do something for Jota. I know he wasn’t an Arsenal player, but I think it would be nice. Maybe something to do with the number 20 as well?

                  I think everyone in football got hit hard by the Jota news. It still doesn’t feel real, ngl. I sent a post over to c/LiverpoolFC, but not sure if anyone’ll respond. If they don’t, I was thinking a “YNWA RIP JOTA FOREVER NO. 20” text or something? not sure.

                    ultimately I want to defer to any scousers if there are any active enough to contribute.
