Rules
-
π Be Nice!
- Treat others with respect and dignity. Friendly banter is okay, as long as it is mutual; keyword: friendly.
-
ποΈ Community Standards
- Comics should be a full story, from start to finish, in one post.
- Posts should be safe and enjoyable by the majority of community members, both here on lemmy.world and other instances.
- Any comic that would qualify as raunchy, lewd, or otherwise draw unwanted attention by nosy coworkers, spouses, or family members should be tagged as NSFW.
- Moderators have final say on what and what does not qualify as appropriate. Use common sense, and if need be, err on the side of caution.
-
𧬠Keep it Real
- Comics should be made and posted by real human beans, not by automated means like bots or AI. This is not the community for that sort of thing.
-
π½οΈ Credit Where Credit is Due
- Comics should include the original attribution to the artist(s) involved, and be unmodified. Bonus points if you include a link back to their website. When in doubt, use a reverse image search to try to find the original version. Repeat offenders will have their posts removed, be temporarily banned from posting, or if all else fails, be permanently banned from posting.
- Attributions include, but are not limited to, watermarks, links, or other text or imagery that artists add to their comics to use for identification purposes. If you find a comic without any such markings, it would be a good idea to see if you can find an original version. If one cannot be found, say so and ask the community for help!
-
π Post Formatting
- Post an image, gallery, or link to a specific comic hosted on another site; e.g., the author's website.
- Meta posts about the community should be tagged with [Meta] either at the beginning or the end of the post title.
- When linking to a comic hosted on another site, ensure the link is to the comic itself and not just to the website; e.g.,
β Correct: https://xkcd.com/386/
β Incorrect: https://xkcd.com/
-
π¬ Post Frequency/SPAM
- Each user (regardless of instance) may post up to five (5 π) comics a day. This can be any combination of personal comics you have written yourself, or other author's comics. Any comics exceeding five (5 π) will be removed.

πΏ Moderation
- We are human, just like most everybody else on Lemmy. If you feel a moderation decision was made in error, you are welcome to reach out to anybody on the moderation team for clarification. Keep in mind that moderation decisions may be final.

Web Accessibility
Note: This is not a rule, but a helpful suggestion.
When posting images, you should strive to add alt-text for screen readers to use to describe the image you're posting:
Another helpful thing to do is to provide a transcription of the text in your images, as well as brief descriptions of what's going on. (example)

If there's a church on the back, go and put that in the collection plate. Or put it in another church's collection plate, see if they beef.
Thanks. Came to see what that meant.
Iβm sorry whatβs wrong with kimchi, itβs not surstrΓΆmming.
Some folks are really sensitive to strong odours, like from kimchi. So it's common courtesy to avoid spreading these smells around where there are lots of people in tight quarters.
Probably varies by place and region, but this has been the case everywhere I've been. Except for homes and very cool workplaces ofc.
Yeah, anything fermented is not for enclosed spaces with a hundred strangers.
I love the shit out of kimchi, but wouldn't want to smell it during a flight..
This is why I only bring fruits. Durian is my favorite.
Understandable, but I never thought of kimchi as having that much of a smell, like, they serve food on airplanes, and food does smell too, and nobody minds?
People mind, I'm sure. But some things are hard to get people to part with, like coffee. I think there's just some cultural inertia, and probably at least a bit of xenophobia at play.
Just fly Korean Air and you don't need to bring your own kimchi.
For real, though, do it if you have the option. It's the only airplane food I still enjoy
That last one seems out of left field. That can't be relevant to anything going on today can it?
Nah, completely irrelevant to any currently ongoing events
I don't understand the copper reference.
!reallyshittycopper@lemmy.world
Yessss...subscribed!
One of today's lucky 10 000! Yaaay!
I understood that reference.
Next to last panel
You sonuvabitch
Clint ?!?!
Nah, that's Clint's great(x15) grandfather, Ea-Nasir

There are people into some of these I'm sure. Someone's punishment mine be something your fine with.
I think that is the point. All of them could be a fetish although I bet there are few guillotine fetishes. Maybe in like tonys sister and the loaded gun thing.
De Sade was into guillotines - wonder if he enjoyed it when they chopped his head off (wait nvm he escaped. Loser).
Iβll plead the fifth but note that Left Behind was traumatic in a strange way.
what was wrong with it? was it not as plumb as the right behind?
Thereβs this weird Christian martyrdom culture. We watched cartoons about the Christians being fed to the lions at the Colosseum; I read She Said Yes and was asked to consider what I would say if Eric Harris pointed a gun at my head and asked me if I believed in God (this story was entirely made up, itβs fucked up how Cassie Bernallβs family exploited her for political gain - this is why we have the moment of silence in schools btw); I imagined myself being lead to the guillotine for refusing the Mark of the Beast.
I have beliefs that Iβm willing to die for now - but yah know, Iβm not celebrating the idea. Itβs pretty fucked up and traumatic, and I think my strange quirk is probably the healthiest sexual hang up that could come out of that culture.
I agree with you but I think they were making a naughty joke :)
I lost..
I hope YOUR happy now !
I'm not, because your lost the game, too
I swear how can i be still losing the game this much even after such a long time. I think the longest i went was like 3 months since the first time i learnt about it.
Going way too easy on the person who brought smelly food on an airplane.
Oligarchy is the byproduct of capitalism. I love how Neolib lemmings always try to soften language to obfuscate the root causes. Better dead than red. The right wing hogs are just ready to burn the world down, but the libs are in such denial. It's sad really. Because now, if you had the framework, everything would just be so obvious. A lot of political theory is coming true. Your bourgeois democracy is coming to an end. We are approaching the singularity. The world is a capitalist world. There is no such thing as communism. Russia is capitalistic, China is capitalistic, and as the world fights, we are all just doing the bidding of rich people as they play both sides. This is the era of the climate wars where nations will fight for resources to push forward a fudual world where there is no room for your own personal autonomy and things like freedom of movement will become less and less of an expectation. They are already priming the kids. The younger generation is absolutely sick and tired. This will bring about popular movements. that resemble the Nazi party and Christo fascism. While at the top they try to maintain the war machine. They say they have nukes now that have less of a fallout, less radiation. But the thing is, they're just going to continue to escalate. There will be a war and the United States will drop nukes on Iran. Iran does not want a war with the United States. The United States is a bully with no plan and no qualifications. The neoliberal order was an attempt by the capitalist class to reduce the amount of conflict in the world. But it was just a band-aid and it was only a matter of time before laissez-faire capitalism was going to collapse in on itself.
