[META] Should comments be held to the same rules as posts? (piefed.social)
submitted 10 hours ago by Dupelet@piefed.social to c/nonpolitical_comics@piefed.social

It's been a running joke since pretty much my 1st post in this comm, that somebody will find a way to explain how my comic post is political. Despite me making it pretty obvious in the sidebar that I'm referring to a very specific flavor of politics.

I've been rolling with them, since I find them more eye-rolling amusing than annoying. However it seems that others might be getting annoyed with them, which I can understand.

IF YOU ARE A PART OF THIS COMMUNITY, chime in with your opinion here. Should we continue to allow free for all comments, or subject them to the same restrictions on (particular) politics as the posts?

If you are already against the point of this community for whatever reason, please refrain from joining in the discussion.

I need help! Volunteers needed. (infosec.pub)

Hey folks! NPCs has blown up since it got started just 3 days ago. There's obviously a large desire for the sort of content I've been posting, and people are loving it. (Discussions about what constitutes politics notwithstanding).

I've got a problem, however! And it's one I hope you can help me with. It takes a lot of time and effort to be the main content supplier for the comm, and it's not sustainable for me. So, I'm asking for volunteers to help out with just 2-3 minutes of your time daily.

What I have in mind: A group of people (ideally, about 20 or so) who can commit 2-3 minutes daily to finding a comic they like and share it to the community.

That's it! Just read a comic or two, find one that suits this community, and post it here for us to enjoy. I'm not asking for mods at the moment, so don't worry about that.

FAQ:

  • What if I can't do it every day, or miss a day? I'm not going to hold you to it! We'll do this on a best effort basis, if you can't make it nobody's going to criticise you for it. Even 1 post a week is appreciated.
  • Can I post more than one? Sure! But consistency is more important than quantity.
  • What constitutes 'politics'?
    Sigh. We'll probably work out a formal definition at some point, but for now you probably have a good idea of my definition just from browsing the comm.

If you'd like to help out, just comment below!

KURT VONNEGUT: Take a moment [Zenpencils] (infosec.pub)

Artist commentary:

Kurt Vonnegut (1922-2007) was an American writer known for his unique novels that combined memoir, humour, satire, cynicism and science-fiction. Vonnegut fought in World War II where he was captured by the Nazis and as a POW, witnessed the fire bombing of Dresden – an event which profoundly affected his outlook on life. Vonnegut and his fellow prisoners were forced to recover dead bodies and clean up a city that he said resembled the surface of the moon. He described the events in his brilliant book Slaughterhouse-Five (which I highly recommend). Vonnegut had a talent for condensing profound humanistic opinions into concise and simple words, like the quote above. I’ve discovered his work quite recently and besides Slaughterhouse-Five, have only read Cat’s Cradle (the two books Vonnegut himself said were his best). What others do you recommend?

Artist commentary:

The ocean. It contains many a thing, but the one thing it is absolutely brimming with is Facts. In these comics, you will learn many such facts, all of which are 100% certifiably true and accurate. My brother is a marine biologist, so of course I am at the forefront of the sea sciences.
