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.

One problem with giving homeless people free homes is that everyone else will start to wonder why the hell we're working so hard for 90% of our income being taken by landlords or mortgage companies, when we could simply stop working so hard, become homeless, and get a free home. ⁉️
Right, you could totally live in a hovel with 40 other people instead. And share a single bathroom between you. It's genius?!
You're probably joking but there are plenty of countries that provide housing for the homeless where this doesn't happen. If you have your base necessities met then that just further incentivizes you to further develop yourself. People want to feel useful and they want to contribute.
(try telling American conservatives that)
