      We all had the option all this time to become a deranged, delusional maniac on this glorious day.

        I, for one, welcome our new deranged, delusional, maniac overlords.

          Yeah. I like that their campaign slogan font is noticeably different than the previous deranged, delusional, maniac overlords. It’s a refreshing change.

          I do not. Any chance I can opt out?

      The great part is, you don’t even have to have read a blog! Even merely having learned to speak is sufficient!

      And maybe not even that! Wild howling! Guttural noises! Ooga-booga! Ugg! Waaga! Eeegh-eeegh-eEeEe!

      … I fear I may be too good at this.

      As someone who also has no talent or expertise, the comic does make it seem kind of appealing

      Also impressive:

      Wow! I used to be a sad loser who lost my kids from drinking too much, but now I’m Neo from the Matrix. Hya!

    I prefer the conspiracy ouroboros:

    Conspiracy theories do not generate spontaneously. They’re all crafted deliberately by a nefarious cabal of corporate interests to distract and manipulate the public.

    Killer comic. Last panel’s a little weak though. Maybe it should break the fourth wall, like the guy looks at the reader and is like: “This is causing all the world’s problems.”

      There’s a trope that many comics can be improved, if you remove the last panel. I do believe this to be one such case…

    Anyone else notice the bots with 5 letter names spam posting comics here? Didn’t take long for bot infiltration and karma farming to infect the fediverse.

      I’m not sure why anyone would think “karma farming” would accomplish anything here. Can most users even see the karma others have on Lemmy? I know I can’t.

        It makes the account seem legitimate, same as on Reddit.

        There is karma on Lemmy?

          It is kept track of, but I’ve never been able to see it in any of the clients I’ve used to view Lemmy.

You are not logged in. However you can subscribe from another Fediverse account, for example Lemmy or Mastodon. To do this, paste the following into the search field of your instance: !comicstrips@lemmy.world

Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.

Rules
  1. 😇 Be Nice!

    • Treat others with respect and dignity. Friendly banter is okay, as long as it is mutual; keyword: friendly.
  2. 🏘️ 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.
  3. 🧬 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.
  4. 📽️ 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!
  5. 📋 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/
  6. 📬 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.
  7. 🏴‍☠️ 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]
  8. 🍿 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.

  1. Jago
  2. Stonetoss
  3. 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:

  • Markdown - Links / Images

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)
