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.

How is breaking the railroad steike being pro union?
Or pushing legislation explicitly meant for busting up leftist orgs by stripping them of nonprofit status?
I remember the way I felt when the railroad strike first ended- it was a smack in the face to the railroad union. He sided against the protesters and ended the protest without giving them what they wanted- sick time off. I thought "dang, Biden is just another in a long line of anti-labor presidents".
That was big news posted loud and everywhere.
And then only a few months later, and with little fanfare, The Biden administration pressured rail companies to give that sick leave.
Biden (actually Pete Buttigeig) prioritized preventing an immediate logistics crisis over workering conditions, but he didn't just let it slide off his table. Now we don't have a logistics crisis and the railroad union has more sick leave. Absolute win.
