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.

Let's not think of all the infrastructure to get what they sell to the people who buy it or that gets the stuff you buy to you. And if your response is, "Well, that's only 100 miles to the nearest store/city/hospital," that completely ignores how the stuff got there so you could pick it up.
Unless your lifestyle is such that you only have to buy or sell things a few times per year to survive, you're relying on that national/global infrastructure to enjoy your rugged, individualistic lifestyle.
