A humorous look at a future california flag. The bear is replaced for the tardigrade (known as a water bear). The star is also broken representing some apocalypse. Another reason why the tardigrade is featured is because its the only organism to have survived all 5 mass extinction events in Earth's history. So in a future post-california (as in, post-apocalypse california), the tardigrade would likely also have survived it.The great tardigrade drawing was made by Banvivirie.
