      Sure; but even then you need variation on the dimensions/sizes.

      Just because some therapy works for you, doesn’t mean the same therapy will work for others.

        Yeah, I get that, but the guy just seems to be happy to share what he’s learned, and it’s kinda shitting on the fact that he’s trying to be helpful because he found help.

          Interesting, didn’t read it quite the same way. Generally I do think it’s a warning to not try to apply the same solution to other problems, but the guy appears to have good intentions and so this feels to me like more of a gentle reminder rather than a “boo you suck for trying to help people”.

          Look closer. He’s not sharing or offering. He’s just throwing it at people. He hit one of them in the head

          He’s very self satisfied and sure he has the answers, but stunted as a person. He has the simplest shape missing, and he thinks everyone is just this one realization away from being him in his improved form

          I think he’s trying to tell other people that they will be helped by the thing that helped him

            If he was shoving triangles down their throats then I’d be more on your side, but I see it as a person who got help and wants to share that help with other.

              To me it looks like he’s throwing triangles around without actually caring about what kind of help the other people need. If he was just sharing and trying to be helpful, we wouldn’t see a triangle bouncing off his friend’s (?) head with many more scattered about. His intentions are probably good, but that doesn’t mean his type of help is wanted by them.

              We could just be reading a lot into a silly comic though.

          Ish? I get what you mean but I think the point is how newly saved want to spread their salvation to everyone else and missing that your solution is not others. Or you are right, I dunno. Now the comic seems more depressing then fun

        My take is different. I know someone who started going to therapy because their kids threatened no contact. They’re on medication now but the narcissism still persists. Now, they act enlightened and projects their shortcomings on to others by not so subtly encouraging them to watch self help vids that only validate their own feelings. They are basically going, “see? I’m better now. This video talks about letting the past stay in the past so we call all get along,” but now the subtext is that the others are the problem.

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.
Banned Artists

The following artists are banned from the community.

  1. Jago
  2. Stonetoss

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:

  • 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!)
