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 pandemic handed us all a super easy win on doing something about climate change by forcing a large chunk of us to (temporarily, it seems) stop sitting in our cars twice a day. Instant reduction in the amount of CO2 we're producing. It's not 100% of the solution, but it's not nothing, and a year in, most of us had adapted just fine (I'd argue, most who could WFH, prospered, seeing a lot more benefit than negative).
But nah - let's get back in our cars, waste time at the beginning and end of every day, spend more money on coffees and lunch, and breathe in the cubicle goodness because, fuck it - that's the way we've always done it.
Great job, podperson! This is the type of go get 'em attitude that executive management will accept. You deserve a reward. How about a below-inflation salary bump this year?
That's so generous of you. However, HR recommends holding a pizza party and a meeting to congratulate workers that further wastes their time, off the clock, of course, instead of offering a pay bump.
don't forget about the ping pong table!
