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.
- AI-generated comics aren't allowed.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

That’s objectively untrue, though. It’s just so effective, you don’t notice it anymore, and that’s kind of scary.
👌👍 they have a huge effect on my life. You clearly know better than I.
Advertising works, and changes your habits and opinions, whether you acknowledge this or not.
I just don't care, it's not having a huge effect. I know I know, it is only the ads and ecosystem that makes me want a new GPU from my 2 realistic choices. And I might know of the existence of some other stupid product.
I have better things to be annoyed and concerned about.
