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.

My experience with the feeling of "being shitty" is when I think of all the bad decisions that lead me to being in the dead end, no skill job I have; thinking about the bills I'm behind on, the chores I'm behind on, the friends who keep reaching out that I haven't responded to, how I'm probably not doing enough for my kid or partner, things like that

But I really try not to go shitty to other people because for the most part, they're not the cause of my shittiness

"But I really try not to go shitty to other people because for the most part, they're not the cause of my shittiness"

If more people had this attitude, we'd have a world where people would have more space to address the other kinds of "being shitty" that you describe (and potentially prevent ourselves from developing bad habits that lead to cycles of shittiness).

I'm sorry that we live in a world that makes it really hard to not be shitty, but I'm glad that you try to avoid being shitty to other people. That's infinitely more important than the other kinds of shittiness, in my view.
