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.
- AI-generated comics aren't allowed.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

Unfortunately, it's not that simple. I'm in the developing world, and there are a few improvements in some areas, but still, some bad trends are more generalized and also happen around here. Even some good things, like more accessible communications, come with their bad sides. To make things even more complicated, some of the progress we're having comes at the expense of some aspects of our culture that have been giving us resilience, and it makes me fear for our future.
I know I was too vague, but to be specific, it would require to write a really, really long text.
You can apply all the nuance you want, but what kind of job do you think you'd have a century ago?
Most of these careers didn't exist even fifty years ago.
