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'm a bureaucrat in a tiny city that's an enclave for the mega-rich. The average new home price is 20x the surrounding area.
But have more billionaires in the city than municipal employees, and billionaires and their minions are needy as fuck.
25,000 square foot houses built on a 40- degree hillside can't be approved in 3 days no matter how rich your ass is.
40 degrees is ridiculous. Steep slopes, people! NJ is pretty strict about that shit, although Alpine does what they want (because money, as I'm sure you can attest). People on top of hill don't care about the impacts of erosion and groundwater at the bottom of the hill.
