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.

You're still shafting poor people when you steal stuff from local shops, even if they belong to large corporations. They usually start locking up items that are frequently stolen and sometimes even close down entirely. This is how food deserts are made.
I don’t think that’s the main problem contributing to food deserts. In my city, zoning regulations and anticompetitive contracts have created them… so, shitty business practices and nimbyism.
It's not the main problem by a long shot but it's certainly impacting existing businesses. For some of them it's just the final nail in the coffin.
Dumbass nimby boomers and zoning are a whole other can of worms. If you can spare the free time to annoy your city council with your pet peeves (which said boomer nimbys often can) you can get a lot of things done.
