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.

Unless you're immunocompromised, is this really worth worrying about?
Yes. It's one of the biggest vectors for contagions. But since disease takes a while to become evident, most people don't associate their sickness with the actual source of transmission.
Bathroom doors specifically, not just doors in general? Edit: I looked it up and I guess it's about bacteria like E. Coli, that makes sense. It's weird, because people on Reddit/Lemmy always talk about using these tricks to avoid touching things, but IRL I've never seen anyone do it or heard anynone talk about it
