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.

"The sign in your truck that says 'Fuck Biden', is that part of the troubling rhetoric right now?"
"Yeah it is, it's the best $25 I've ever spent."

Kinda suggests to me that even the cult members are mostly in the cult so they can get a closer look at the exciting shitshow. I don't get the impression this guy cares that Trump got shot, just that he's a part of the "fun".
When did life become a sitcom? Like, I genuinely can see that exchange being written for an absurdist comedy. People always say they wish George Carlin were still alive to see this shit. I wonder why you'd want to subject him to that. If George Carlin somehow survived covid, and this is the news on TV, I'm 100% sure he would stick a shotgun in his own mouth and pull the trigger with his toes.
So, I'm sorta glad he died of natural causes, because the modern day would just be torture for him. It's true he saw these same problems in his day, and he saw it getting worse, but he never saw it this bad. It's like saying that he's heard this song before, but he never heard it at this volume.
