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.

Nanotech-fabricated in corporate labs, delivered through underground pipes. The paste will flow, so long as they do their remote jobs (porn for the mother, bot farm management for the father, exposure to AI test output for the child.)
Optimistic to think it's fabricated with nanotech instead of just pureé'd people and green dye.
No point in wasting the good stuff on the poors.
The problem with using pureé’d people is the transportation cost. C'mon now, think of the shareholders.
The lifepod just stores the bodies at subzero temperatures until a disposal truck comes to collect the bio waste. It all goes to the same place anyway...
Unless it's one of the new ones, those just blend the body in-house and supplement the incoming lines.
Spendthrift! Who's going to pay for all those trucks and blenders? We'll just jettison the bodies out of the lifepods and let the Desert Crabs eat them. We'll call it part of our "green" initiative. Of course we'll still keep the body transportation charges, and tack on a convenience fee. THINK OF THE SHAREHOLDERS!!!
I would assume the nutrient paste is the people who did poorly at managing bot farms, gave too many unexpected answers to the AI tests...
