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.
- Limit of two posts per person per day.
- Bots aren't allowed.
- Banned users will have their posts removed.

I absolutely do judge, because it doesn't make them happy. At no point during their run on the approval-seeking treadmill of 'gotta shave off another 0.3 seconds from my time, no wait, 0.4 seconds, no wait...' do they actually have the briefest of moments where they can feel like they are just okay to be who they are. It's painful for them to chase the carrot on a stick, vicariously painful for others to watch, and readily turns them into toxic people when they can't get their fix.
