    Ursula has a very low opinion of men; 100% she expects this to still work.

    Technically she she should have been more specific. I just don’t get why she lost her head too, instead of just the arms?
    I guess it must have been an evil Genie. 😋

      It’s a common trope to depict making a wish but causing unintended and dark consequences. It’s allegory to be careful what you wish for. I suppose you could call this “anti-wish”.

    The Mermaid

    I signed onto a sailing ship

    My very first day at sea

    I seen the Mermaid in the waves

    Reaching out to me

    “Come live with me in the sea,” said she

    "Down on the ocean floor

    And I’ll show you a million wondrous things

    You’ve never seen before"

    So over I jumped and she pulled me down

    Down to her seaweed bed

    On a pillow made of a tortoise-shell

    She placed beneath my head

    She fed me shrimp and caviar

    Upon a silver dish

    From her head to her waist it was just my taste

    But the rest of her was a fish

    'Cause her hair was green as seaweed

    Her skin was blue and pale

    Her face it was a work of art

    I loved that girl with all my heart

    I only liked the upper part

    I did not like the tail

    But then one day, she swam away

    So I sang to the clams and the whales

    "Oh, how I miss her seaweed hair

    And the silver shine of her scales"

    But then her sister, she swam by

    And set my heart a-whirl

    Cause her upper part was an ugly fish

    But her bottom part was a girl

    Yes her hair was green as seaweed

    Her skin was blue and pale

    Her legs they are a work of art

    I loved that girl with all my heart

    And I don’t give a damn about the upper part

    'cause that’s how I get my tail

      I was absolutely certain I was going to have a one-of-a-kind comment that was perfect for the post, but it turns out you already posted it!

You are not logged in. However you can subscribe from another Fediverse account, for example Lemmy or Mastodon. To do this, paste the following into the search field of your instance: !comicstrips@lemmy.world

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
  3. GPrime85

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)
