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.

It's kind of the real annoying problem when it comes to wanting to buy clothes that aren't feeding sweatshops...
IE, you find clothes that are cheap, you immidiately know "well no way things are this cheap without labor abuses". But then at the same time you also are aware "just because it's expensive doesn't mean they don't also use the same labor abuses, just pocket bigger profit".
Buy used is my suggestion
that is true, probably the only way that you can know at least 2 good things. 1. You aren't encouraging any extra slavework to be done, 2. you are reducing waste (or at least increasing usage of what's already been made).
