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.

I would like to know more about Plato's version of the simulation theory. It sounds fascinating.
I think they're referring to the Allegory of the Cave. Which isn't quite simulation theory, but it does tread some of the same questions.
I mean, for someone who had never heard of electricity, it's about as close a comparison as he could get.
He explained it the only way someone from his time would have been able to.
Ah, I'm familiar with that one in particular but I thought there was a different one I had missed.
