Welcome to the ashtray in the corner of the interwebs where the weird strips go when they give up on being normal.
This is where comics show up at 3 a.m. with red ink on their shirt and no alibi.
This comm is creator-friendly. So feel to throw your own stuff into the ring! 'Weird' is better than 'good,' friends! General comics talk is encouraged too.
I'm Buckminster Burkeswood, and I say, "Let's all race to the bottom and freak out Lemmy together!"

-
Single–panel and short web comics

Underground, indie, ugly, beautiful, badly lettered, whatever

I don't care what you used to create it. Bring it!
If it feels like something a bored bartender would laugh at, it probably fits. Weird is good!

MODERATORS
Prisons operate as profit centers. The homeless are an exploitable cohort for predation - physical violence, sexual assault, sub-living wage labor, entertainment. Public housing depresses the overall real estate market and takes lots of land out of the private sector. The incentive of "low" public costs doesn't really drive political behavior, because spending and taxation are decoupled from one another for the average voter/consumer.
Then there's a certain value in reserving a small cadre of armed proles to cultivate their sadistic tendencies on a permanent underclass, in anticipation of a larger and more organized opposition of wage workers. Homeless residents become a proving ground for prospective professional head-crackers and back-breakers.
