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.

Food is just chemicals and it turns out it doesn't actually matter if the chemicals have a soul attached to them or not. Personally don't think vegans should own pets at all but the whole "they carnivores tho" is rly dumb
Vegans wouldn't "Own" someone else. Plenty of vegans rescue other animals and take care of them as wards.
I personally don't use the word pet when referring to non-human animals in someone's care.
Why not? That's the exact scenario the word applies to.
Because I use the same word for human animals and non-human animals. I would call a foster kid my pet. I call them my ward or a ward of the state.
