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.

I mean.......life was better before trump, but, I'm 42 and can't say life has ever been "good".
Like, I have no first hand experience with what happyness feels like.
Chronic depression? Missing childhood?
I grew up poor in an Eastern European country and I still remember happiness. In my childhood and in high school. Middle school not so much, I was bullied then.
Age is 30.
My childhood was spent raising my dad. Who despite being in his 30s, acted like an infant.
He always wanted his bottle (booze).
He had to be made sure he went to bed on time, or he'd be cranky.
Needed to be meal prepped.
I'm just glad he didn't need a diaper.
Yeah I don't think you not remembering happiness has anything to do with the world being fucked up, it's your dad that's to blame.
I'm sorry this is how you grew up. Nobody deserves this.
