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.

Make a rule that one of you has to propose three options, and the other has to pick one of those three. Your partner can choose which role they want.
It's a bit like telling two children that one can cut the cake, but the other gets first pick - but it's a hack to combat your own (collective) indecisiveness.
Smart. Get 'em hooked on trolley problems when they're young.
How do you get your partner to co-operate with this?
It helps that the proposal is clearly reasonable, and can be made beforehand, before there's any friction. I might be lucky to have a pretty reasonable partner though.
Though in reality, for me the problem is that often I'm both persons. I don't want to come up with what's for dinner, but I also don't feel like anything. The above hack still works to trick myself into at least making a decision.
