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.

The scientist expected it to not look like this, it is not due to the solar maximum, literally no one has any idea why the oceans are not cooling. The best idea we have is that something is different than it was a couple of years ago, but afaik no one has been able to pin down exactly what it is thats causing the surge in ocean temps. And this is in 2024, when the warming is supposed to be manageable, imagine it in 2100 and beyond. We are fucked, been fucked for years, we just pretend like we have some control over nature. Full system collapse around 2050 at the latest by most estimates, and thats the optimistic outlook on the future. The capitalist system might just keep grinding along, destroying everything and everyone in its path until there is nothing left to consume.
