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.

Unfortunately, second-guessing yourself is a vital skill. Imagine if you could never change your mind after your first thought on a subject.
MAGA in a nutshell and we know the fallout. Vital skill indeed.
Political extremism across the board, really. MAGA is just has the most heinous ideology behind it.
Eh, I'd say there's a lot of second-guessing but people are just so dumb that it ends up like that anyway. And leftist extremism, while it is and can be bad in many ways, isn't as bad as right extremism.
I specifically omitted levels of "badness" because it's functionally immaterial to identifying that there's a problem in the first place. Unless of course your only goal is to win a political dick-measuring contest and not effect real lasting change.
Leftist extremism is we need to destroy society. Rightist extremism is "we need to genocide black people" yeah, pretty clear one is a lot better
Everything is good in moderation. Fear is a part of survival instinct, but it can also cause issues that lead to injury or death. Pain is important to keep us alive, but one can also die of too much of it.
not saying that would have been good for me,, but damned if they wouldn't briefly acknowledge me, and my many fiery deaths, briefly
