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.

In all seriousness, and if you didn't figure already, productivity culture is a massive con.
Humans cannot and should not be busy with work/study 24/7. Your procrastination is a sign of burnout, not some "laziness" to overcome. Think of what could help you get a good rest (spoiler alert: this is not scrolling your feed) and return to business with passion.
We are these big predators. It's natural to lounge around like a lion and take it easy after a meal. We aren't hive insects.
When all those gurus say you are a lion, they mean a different thing...but I love your approach! :D
Productivity is the amount of output per unit of time, doesn't mean to work 24/7 AFAIK. If anything it aims exactly the opposite: be productive, finish your shit early, go home.
Normally it is tied to working the same or more, but with higher output to outperform everyone else and build a career, not to going home early.
I guess that's the US version of it... In Europe you are often forbidden from working too many hours (either safety regulations or union rules) so everyone plays on an even playing field, so whoever uses their time most efficiently, goes further ahead in their career.. . (or whoever is better connected, but that's a thing everywhere)
