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.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

Simply being a doomer doesn’t accomplish anything on its own. You have to translate it into meaningful action.
You don’t “grow out of it.” You just decided to put your head back in the sand.
Well I stopped acting like the person in the comic more like. I still pay attention to what's going on. I just don't bring up those topics at the lunch table at work for example, you know?
I think it’s ok to bring it up as a call to action, so long as you’re not just wallowing in the despair.
Yup. But you have to be careful with when you do it. I lost quite a bit of friends in my doomer phase because they just couldn't handle talking to me
