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 detachment is more of a defeatism issue. When you have zero power to affect change, what the hell else can you do but work through the day and try to not have a breakdown?
Mind you, I vote when that comes around, I just don't have the mental fortitude anymore to not be detached. Don't have the time or space to do more than that, which is rather by design I expect.
The fact that you believe that you have zero power and then participate in this thread, not realizing one of the leading causes on the why the situation or problem got to this point.
You people can do so much more than you think and you squander it on petty online squabbles
So which is it? If we've got nothing to lose but our chains, then maybe we should "break down" together at strategic times.
Both obviously. I did my part and sanity lost in the US. I continue to have no meaningful power.
Our lives are also on the list to lose. The health and well-being of those that depend on us as well. Losing our chains is great if that's really all you have to lose.
yeah I got a good chuckle out of that.
