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.
- AI-generated comics aren't allowed.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

Only a ceremonial one. All the royal family do is go around cutting ribbons, representing some charities, ~~raping kids~~, and getting harassed by tabloid media.
The US looks far more like the old fashioned monarchies these days with the billionaires ruling the country without the law applying to them.
A "ceremonial" one that still takes taxes, influences policy, can and does appoint and remove officials, has veto powers, and is above the law unless the chief inbred agrees otherwise.
But they're not rude about it so the more gullible peasants pretend they're just some vestigial organ that somehow also can't be removed.
