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.

I try new hobbies to see if I'll actually like them. Usually it's things I'm attracted to, but often it's things I'm not interested in but have the chance to try. It's about equal positives for both and I'm much more fulfilled, skilled, and happy for it. I aggressively pursue hobbies when circumstances mean I can no longer do one anymore much, or things begin to feel like they've been plateuing for a while and I'm not getting much out of it anymore.
There are things that have changed my entire lifestyle. But, to think, I could've never tried these things and subsequently never had known what would've been. There are things so hard I give up, but only for a while, and then try again, and again, and again.
One might say my primary hobby is finding fulfilling things. It seems a pretty smart way to put worth to finite time. I encourage everyone to go nuts with hobbies.
