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.

Yes let's all bury our heads in the sand now. I'm sure it will all turn out fine ๐ซฃ
some of us may need a few days between the cries of "dont vote for harris, teach them a lesson" and "now is the time to join us in revolutionary action". theres some lack of credibility going around this platform and the corporate media sources (news & social) are doing their best to maintain ad engagement. we are all staring down a decade of painfull experiances and it's ok to take a breath sometimes.
Pretty sure the intention is more to distance oneself from depressing information about an event that has occurred, not about something which can be interfered upon.
I.E. Hearing/consuming constant news about election results when one vehemently opposes the result can very easily lead to anxiety (shown in the comic) and depression, both of which can be damaging to one's mental and physical health.
There's little we can do about it now. The damage is done. Destroying our mental health with worry helps no one.
Best reply to this, hands down.
