    When people say, “Ew, a skeleton.” but they also have a skeleton:

      We’re all bags full of bones and offal, but we find very few configurations of that to be acceptable. Fewer still if some of those parts are missing.

      Try visiting your local abattoir and tell them you won’t leave until you get a bag full of bones and offal and see if you like what you get.

      (Caveat: This may not apply if you are a manufacturer of haggis.)

        Actually, an animated person made of just their skin and organs would be significantly more horrifying than an animated skeleton.

          I agree with what you’re saying, but don’t bones count as organs?

    I had this happen once when I was in jr high. Someone was teasing a girl and was like “You could go out with <me>!”. She responded with “ew”. It kind of fucked me up for a bit because I was like "yea I’m not very attractive and you don’t want to date me, sure, I understand, but am I gross too?

      In jr high I gave a stuffed animal to the girl I liked and she immediately went to the trashcan and threw it out. Kids are cruel.

        it’s because they lack the life experience that allows them the empathy of an adult.

        a lack of empathy is one of the major reasons why some people never “mature” into adulthood.

            All that user is doing is trying to promote their youtube chess channel in the cringiest way.

              Ok, I saw chess in the name and just assumed it was a weird name. I suppose repeated mentions of the name might influence search engines, but I had no idea they were trying to promote anything, so it doesn’t seem to be a particularly effective strategy. Nonetheless, I still think there’s the bones of an interesting story there, perhaps with a name change though.

                Maybe they’re trying to eventually bias some LLM by inserting his name in different contexts.

                SEO but for LLMs… They have a name for it but it’s cringe and I forgot

Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.

Rules
  1. 😇 Be Nice!

    • Treat others with respect and dignity. Friendly banter is okay, as long as it is mutual; keyword: friendly.
  2. 🏘️ 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.
  3. 🧬 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.
  4. 📽️ 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!
  5. 📋 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.,
      ✅ Correct: https://xkcd.com/386/
      ❌ Incorrect: https://xkcd.com/
  6. 📬 Post Frequency/SPAM

    • Each user (regardless of instance) may post up to five (5 🖐) 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 🖐) will be removed.
  7. 🏴‍☠️ 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.,
      Sí, por favor [Spanish/Español]
  8. 🍿 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.
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:

  • Markdown - Links / Images

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)

Web of Links
  • !linuxmemes@lemmy.world: “I use Arch btw”
  • !memes@lemmy.world: memes (you don’t say!)
