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.

The only appropriate use of the clapping emoji.
But the claps are in the wrong place
Well that's the ADHD version of the song.
A little bit of extra clap never hurt anybody.
My doctor said I got the clap in the wrong placeπ
Is that emoji only used for clapping, or does it do double duty for slapping?
You got it. Things happen and your experience is largely defined by how you react to them, which is arguably by varying degrees even under your control due to biology, the environment you are in and were raised in, and many other factors you are not personally responsible for.
You donβt have to assign a value of βgoodβ or βbadβ to things. When I say that I donβt mean things where people are harmed. I mean things like having to wash the dishes. I like doing it now, because I stopped thinking about it like a bad thing.
Your brain is just a big overhyped pattern-based machine. You can reprogram it if you want to. Try to make a habit of something that you think will be positive and I can almost guarantee you there wonβt be regrets. Shit, if youβre gonna be depressed anyway you might as well get a dune popcorn bucket out of it.
Really hoping this lsd treatment becomes widely available because itβs just not as easy to get on the street as it used to be and it really can help with depression. Psychedelics saved my life, I promise you that.
Except not all brains are wired the same, nor do all bodies work the same. You being able to "think" yourself in to enjoying doing dishes is good for you, but really not the answer and definitely not a "guarantee" for everyone (because there is a large range of mild to serious mental and physical illness that mean "thinking" barriers away isn't an option. Also sever poverty and daily subjection to things like racism, more things that people can't think away, have a big impact on everything in life, including processing and coping with the world).
You climb the mountain because it's there. Or for the journey, and not the destination. Or for making it to the top. Something, along those philosophicallysmarty lines.
