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.

Waiting on my 12-yo to experience menarche. Gods. Mom sent her with pads the last two summers, nada.
Not looking forward to the talks we'll have, but at least her mom and I are on the same page, educated her. LOL, she's dying to start, excited.
Yeah hon, it's a life changer, but not so great.
our goddaughter is also 12. same sitch. i am a little worried for her mother because if this is pre-puberty she is in for one hell of a ride. goddaughter's already as mood-swingy as I ever was (and I was the drama Queen Bitch (working on it) of the performing arts department of the high school and all three major colleges I attended, and I didn't even do the performing arts program of two of those colleges I just had that much drama), and we only expect that to intensify.
Does anyone know of any hotels with padded walls and ceilings we could check into for a couple days and just, scream? those sound really quiet and peaceful.
