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.

Anyone upset that xkcd is supporting Harris is probably also mad that RATM got political
Average conservative voter reading XKCD: "Ahh yes, programmer humor and linear equations, I understand these jokes."
I am always shocked to find out how many engineers are hard right wing. Even more surprising is how many of them are legit insane conspiracy theorists. Not even like mainstream stupid conspiracies like pizzagate. Like ancient aliens built the pyramids to capture Elvis and Batboy to force them into gay marriage before changing both of their genders so that they're in a double gay marriage then force them to write children's books so that the children will willingly go with the aliens conspiracy theories. Shit that's so complicated that there's not enough red yarn in the world to connect it together.
I met a mining engineer once who believed in flat earth ... I debated with him for a while for fun because I thought he was joking. Half an hour later I realized he was serious.
I had to laugh because at one point I told him that if he honestly believed all this, his work place hazard in mining would be that he could drill right through the plane of the earth and fall right through into infinity ..... or onto the back of a turtle.
