Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
Rules
-
😇 Be Nice!
- Treat others with respect and dignity. Friendly banter is okay, as long as it is mutual; keyword: friendly.
-
🏘️ Community Standards
- Comics should be a full story, from start to finish, in one post.
- Posts should be safe and enjoyable by the majority of community members, both here on lemmy.world and other instances.
- Any comic that would qualify as raunchy, lewd, or otherwise draw unwanted attention by nosy coworkers, spouses, or family members should be tagged as NSFW.
- Moderators have final say on what and what does not qualify as appropriate. Use common sense, and if need be, err on the side of caution.
-
🧬 Keep it Real
- Comics should be made and posted by real human beans, not by automated means like bots or AI. This is not the community for that sort of thing.
-
📽️ Credit Where Credit is Due
- Comics should include the original attribution to the artist(s) involved, and be unmodified. Bonus points if you include a link back to their website. When in doubt, use a reverse image search to try to find the original version. Repeat offenders will have their posts removed, be temporarily banned from posting, or if all else fails, be permanently banned from posting.
- Attributions include, but are not limited to, watermarks, links, or other text or imagery that artists add to their comics to use for identification purposes. If you find a comic without any such markings, it would be a good idea to see if you can find an original version. If one cannot be found, say so and ask the community for help!
-
📋 Post Formatting
- Post an image, gallery, or link to a specific comic hosted on another site; e.g., the author's website.
- Meta posts about the community should be tagged with [Meta] either at the beginning or the end of the post title.
- When linking to a comic hosted on another site, ensure the link is to the comic itself and not just to the website; e.g.,
✅ Correct: https://xkcd.com/386/
❌ Incorrect: https://xkcd.com/
-
📬 Post Frequency/SPAM
- Each user (regardless of instance) may post up to five (5 🖐) comics a day. This can be any combination of personal comics you have written yourself, or other author's comics. Any comics exceeding five (5 🖐) will be removed.
-
🏴☠️ Internationalization (i18n)
- Non-English posts are welcome. Please tag the post title with the original language, and include an English translation in the body of the post; e.g.,
Sí, por favor [Spanish/Español]
- Non-English posts are welcome. Please tag the post title with the original language, and include an English translation in the body of the post; e.g.,

🍿 Moderation
- We are human, just like most everybody else on Lemmy. If you feel a moderation decision was made in error, you are welcome to reach out to anybody on the moderation team for clarification. Keep in mind that moderation decisions may be final.
- When reporting posts and/or comments, quote which rule is being broken, and why you feel it broke the rules.
Banned Artists
The following artists are banned from the community.
- Jago
- Stonetoss
- GPrime85
It should be noted that when you make reports, it is your responsibility to provide rational reasoning why something should be removed. Saying it simply breaks community rules is not always good enough.
Web Accessibility
Note: This is not a rule, but a helpful suggestion.
When posting images, you should strive to add alt-text for screen readers to use to describe the image you're posting:
Another helpful thing to do is to provide a transcription of the text in your images, as well as brief descriptions of what's going on. (example)

It’s one track. The meme is referring to Time.
Edit - Track one is Speak to Me / Breathe
No paranthetical
Uh oh, I detect a schism.
No need to be a tool
I think we should all just join hands, form A Perfect Circle, chill out
Ughh... I'd rather have an Ænima
I'm not!
No chill. I need to be four degrees warmer.
Yes, do A Circle of Hands.
Both copies I own have it as two separate tracks, as does streaming.
My 50th anniversary edition:
My early 80s (I think) pressing:
Apple Music:
Those pictures are of the sleeve obviously but the records themselves also echo this. I don’t have an original pressing but I’d like to get one at some point.
Yes, that appears to be the norm
I explained my reasoning in another comment if you’re interested, but it’s not important enough for me to retype
my 73 Canadian pressing is the same order as your 80s pressing
Mine’s a Canadian pressing too actually. One day I’d love to own an original pressing GB copy with the solid prism and everything. They’re not cheap though, and obviously a little more expensive again to get it to Canada as opposed to a Canadian pressing that’ll already be here.
While I sgree on combining them it is the unconvential way. This is old vinyl side A
And Wikipedia has a note under track listing on that spesific topic.
So track 3 would be on the run, at least on the vinyl he got :3
Interesting. I first heard it on CD, which is why they’re the same song in my mind (also, it’s difficult to decide where the division would be made from a production standpoint. I assume that’s why they made it into one track for the CD, there’s no good place to split the recording).
The meme makes way more sense if he’s talking about Time tho
I don’t know, I guess it depends on how you’re listening to it. Lyrically obviously, Time would make more sense. But On The Run could be sonically more interesting, or at least give the appropriate reaction if you’re high maybe. I could definitely see someone hearing On The Run for the first time, with good headphones in, while high, and just being totally entranced. At the same time, I think that goes for any Pink Floyd song actually.
Oh, I’m by no means trying to downplay the quality of On The Run, I just think that Time is a particularly insightful and moving song.
Fair. I love Time, it’s one of my favourite songs ever written. I’m just saying both would work quite well for that reaction, especially if the listener is high.
