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.

MODERATORS
Dopamine levels in the reward system are affected by novelty. Novelty is often important to pay attention to when it comes to survival, which is likely why this thrill of the "new" is conserved across many species.
Novelty has pretty seismic implications in the realm of instructional technology. I like to think that new methods are intrinsically beneficial, but the research shows no real benefit.
