Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

Being informed is only as useful as the news is actionable. If you're trapped, foreknowledge only produces anxiety. You're a rat locked in a room with an electric floor. All you can do is be afraid (or sublime) in anticipation of the next shock.
A great deal of our news media is reported as unactionable. These aren't warnings that you can use to prepare, to fight, or to flee. They aren't calls to action or hints toward future research. You can't do anything with these headlines, save to slot them away for a future trivia night.
