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.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

People aren't bored enough. It's good for you.
Tolerating boredom is a skill worth developing
Unironically it’s been done for thousands of years and is called meditation. Once you’ve washed the bowls, picked the crops, clothes are clean, floors are swept, you have to figure out how to make the most of just sitting down for awhile. Though being bored today I think is fighting the urge to do something when there are infinite things calling for your attention, which I guess is sort of a modern meditation in itself.

I never really learned this skill. I can just lie down in bed all day doing nothing (apart from thinking), and not get bored. This trait is not very beneficial for productivity...
This is actually one of the reasons I love the beach. I lie there, close my eyes, listen to the sounds around me, maybe drift off for a minute, maybe listen to music, read a few chapters of my book. My beach days are usually like 3hrs about, though. I have friends that like to go to the beach at 9a and stay until 6p. That’s too much for me
