Let him swear please 😢

The Gay and Lesbian Kingdom of the Coral Sea Islands was founded in 2004 by a group of queer Australians. Its flag was the rainbow flag, its currency the Pink Dollar, and its national anthem Gloria Gaynor’s I am what I am.

Check out our podcast to learn more about the kingdom!

[Images: The Kingdom’s emperor Dale Parker Anderson stands beside a rainbow flag; a plaque reading: “The Gay Kingdom: On the 14th day of June 2004 at this, the highest point in the Coral Sea, Emperor Dale Parker Anderson raised the gay rainbow flag and claimed the Islands of the Coral Sea in his name as a homeland for the gay and lesbian people of the world. God Save our King!”; A sign on a beach which reads “Welcome to Heaven, Cato Island Post Code 0000, Capital of the Gay and Lesbian Kingdom, www.gayandlesbiankingdom.com” draped with a rainbow flag, next to a post box labelled “Royal Gay Mail”]

I submit to you that the most iconic feature of any animal is either unlikely or impossible to fossilize.

If all we had of wolves were their bones we would never guess that they howl.

If all we had of elephants were fossils with no living related species, we might infer some kind of proboscis but we’d never come up with those ears.

If all we had of chickens were bones, we wouldn’t know about their combs and wattles, or that roosters crow.

We wouldn’t know that lions have manes, or that zebras have stripes, or that peacocks have trains, that howler monkeys yell, that cats purr, that deer shed the velvet from their antlers, that caterpillars become butterflies, that spiders make webs, that chickadees say their name, that Canada geese are assholes, that orangutans are ginger, that dolphins echolocate, or that squid even existed.

My point here is that we don’t know anything about dinosaurs. If we saw one we would not recognize it. As my evidence I submit the above, along with the fact that it took us two centuries to realize they’d been all around us the whole time.
