Rules
-
๐ Be Nice!
- Treat others with respect and dignity. Friendly banter is okay, as long as it is mutual; keyword: friendly.
-
๐๏ธ 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.
-
๐งฌ 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.
-
๐ฝ๏ธ 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!
-
๐ 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.,
โ
Correct: https://xkcd.com/386/
โ Incorrect: https://xkcd.com/
-
๐ฌ Post Frequency/SPAM
- Each user (regardless of instance) may post up to five (5 ๐) 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 ๐) will be removed.
-
๐ดโโ ๏ธ Internationalization (i18n)
- Non-English posts are welcome. Please tag the post title with the original language, and include an English translation in the body of the post; e.g.,
Sรญ, por favor [Spanish/Espaรฑol]
-
๐ฟ 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.
- When reporting posts and/or comments, quote which rule is being broken, and why you feel it broke the rules.
Banned Artists
The following artists are banned from the community.
- Jago
- Stonetoss
- GPrime85
It should be noted that when you make reports, it is your responsibility to provide rational reasoning why something should be removed. Saying it simply breaks community rules is not always good enough.
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)

MODERATORS
Not true. All cats are members of the same anarchy organization. He just duped them into thinking he is in alignment with them.
Cats are (American) libertarians.
Completely dependent on a system they neither understand or appreciate, while claiming complete independence from it, and constantly try to tear it all down.
I lol'd,
But when i think about it more, cats could actually go feral and survive on their own
Unlike libertarians who couldnt last 2 days wothout driving their fat asses down a publicly funded road in their giant SUV fueled by publicly subsidized gas prices. Driving to go to the supermarket to buy food produced with farm subsidies and whatever public funds are upholding the temporary foreign slave labour we import seasonally to harvest food....
American libertarians are just republicans who are ashamed to call themselves that. Also, some of them like weed.
Well, you've messed up my claim. Yes, some cats are totally like that, and would never survive on their own. Others wouldn't give their past human servants a second thought if they found themselves outside. Still, they are not right wing.
The right-wing attitude can be boiled down to "I've got mine, fuck you, give me yours".
The details vary, but that's the core of it.
Cats certainly qualify. I own three of them and they're all assholes.
#notallcats
Feral cats even benefit from the vast amounts of waste we generate. Mice and other prey live off our scraps, even if the cats donโt directly.
Itโs scary how analogous they are to the libertarians. Never seen a cute libertarian though.
Have tried giving one a makeover?
Exactly. Because you never thought to share /smh
Right wing, left wing, they'll eat the whole bird, ~~thanks~~
