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 don't know shit about knitting, and even I can tell the needles are upside-down just for starters.
There was a bizarre movement in the Victorian era to get people to knit with their needles held with tips pointed down because it's "more ladylike" but it's also very difficult and irritating to knit that way so it didn't catch on.

An "optics first" mindset. Sadly, it's probably even worse in 2024.
