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.
- AI-generated comics aren't allowed.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

A mind is for thinking, a pencil is for remembering.
Worth noting that writing things down is bad for long term memory. Your brain is a muscle, if you delegate, it won’t stay fit.
Do you remember your entire grocery list every time you go to the store? I need to write mine down, and I have excellent memory recall. Some things are just better to write down. Furthermore, those who don't write things down I find usually aren't using their memories for recall, they just forget things.
Yes, a grocery list isn’t hard to remember at all if you have somewhat decent memory. It’s made even easier if you know where the items are in the store since you can memorise the distance and path instead of the items themselves.
