- 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.
- Limit of two posts per person per day.

Time mixed cream cough for a berry filled drop.
Don't dead open inside
Yeah I should’ve hyphenated cream-filled to maybe break up that consistent gap.
I would literally doodle these on a notepad, take a photo with my phone, jack up the contrast, then put the text in using my handwriting as a font; all in ~10 minutes with barely any QA. I’ve been meaning to remake/re-draw them, but I know myself and the more work I put into it the less I’d enjoy it.
It's totally not a big deal. I think it actually adds something to the comic.
I'm glad I wasn't the only one

At least for me the river between the words made me initially read it that way, too
You have an extra / in the link
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/River_(typography)
On Piefed (and I think lemmy?) it doesn’t display the link properly if I don’t have that extra \ (it’s there to cancel out the final parenthesis, so that the markdown knows it’s part of the link)
Not sure if it is correctly rendered by all clients, but you can try wrapping the links in
<and>.<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/River_(typography)>... becomes
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/River_(typography)
It is referred to as autolinks in the CommonMark specification.
Thanks for the info! Your example does display correctly on Piefed 👍
