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.

We've witnessed societal collapse before and came out of it for the better. We'll be reunited as a whole within a hundred years of such an event.
The main difference though was those were just societal not ecological.
People were able to bounce back easily because resources were still plentiful and food was everywhere. With climate change a lot of resources are going to become unavailable.
Maybe so, but humans are also clever. Just cause we're fucked doesnt mean we're out of the game.
Oh I have no doubt. Honestly it would take planet wide devastation to completely wipe us out.
But mass extinctions have happened multiple times and the species that survive are mainly just lucky.
I don't think humanity has anymore luck to spare.
