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.

They're going to elect an authoritarian as president, surely that will bring down prices!
"He's got that totally awesome plan called Tarrifs™ that is supposed to make rainbows and sunshine come pouring out of my ass and we'll all be happy again!"
....oh.... Wait....
Search trends are not useful for population studies. For example, did you even bother comparing the search trends you presented to other election years?
Yeah, questions about vot8ng will always spike after an election, not having numbers makes that increase meaningless. There was another image comparing these trends to people searching for tailor swift, which was like 8 times higher than these trends in any point of the curve. So high that the increase of this question was even hard to see.
I hate people that manipulate data presentation to twist results.
But look at that giant mountain in the graph! Its beautiful! Like the rockies or...another mountain I definitely know the name of! Uhhh Bahamas! I think thats one...
Anyways I like pretty graph!
It was just meant to be a joke not some serious documentation of information meant to be spread as absolute fact. We're in a comics group at the moment lol
It’s been coming doing for years, but much like Trump took credit for Obama’s economy, he will take credit for this too. And 50% of the country will learn the wrong lesson.
If I've learned anything from plastic signs on the side of the road, it's "Trump low prices. Kamala high prices."
