It should be noted that when you make reports, it is your responsibility to provide rational reasoning why something should be removed. Saying it simply breaks community rules is not always good enough.
Note: This is not a rule, but a helpful suggestion.
When posting images, you should strive to add alt-text for screen readers to use to describe the image you're posting:
Another helpful thing to do is to provide a transcription of the text in your images, as well as brief descriptions of what's going on. (example)

Three panel comic.
Panel 1: a hand holding an envelope addressed to House on the Giant Turtleβs Back.
Panel 2: a postal worker, holding the envelope, stands on the rocky shore of a sea before an enormous tortoise trudging through the water. It has some trees and a house on top of its shell.
Panel 3: the postal worker looks back down at the envelope, looking emotionally debilitated.
I'd play the shit out of a game where you'd have to deliver parcels, packages, letters to weirder and weirder places, while tying a larger story together (an awesome story).
Death Stranding is looking for you.
Yeah, but like fantastic and fun, not cripplingly depressing.
Sounds like you'd be interested in:
Is there a rule 34 but for video games instead of porn?
If it's not Steam it's Itch.io.
What a cute little game, thanks, it might be just what I'm looking for!
This could be a fun video game
Post Office Simulator meets Shadow of the Colossus
would play. 7/5
your mom would play that video game
she's got pretty good taste.
Gonna have to break the barnacles off its feet while it continues to stomp around so itβll lay down and let you climb aboard.
Or ride your spirit horse and use a magical jump pad to get up there.

Looks like a Legend of Zelda side quest.
Link's Awakening.
Look, there is Fastitocalon!
An island good to land upon,
Although βtis rather bare.
Come, leave the sea! And let us run,
Or dance, or lie down in the sun!
See, gulls are sitting there!
Beware!
Gulls do not sink.
There they may sit, or strut and prink:
Their part it is to tip the wink,
If anyone should dare
Upon that isle to settle,
Or only for a while to get
Relief from sickness or the wet,
Or maybe boil a kettle.
Ah! foolish folk, who land on HIM,
And little fires proceed to trim
And hope perhaps for tea!
It may be that His shell is thick,
He seems to sleep; but He is quick,
And floats now in the sea
With guile;
And when He hears their tapping feet,
Or faintly feels the sudden heat,
With smile
HE dives,
And promptly turning upside-down
He tips them off, and deep they drown,
And lose their silly lives
To their surprise.
Be wise!
There are many monsters in the Sea,
But none so perilous as HE,
Old horny Fastitocalon,
Whose mighty kindred all have gone,
The last of the old Turtle-fish.
So if to save your life you wish
Then I advise:
Pay heed to sailorsβ ancient lore,
Set foot on no uncharted shore!
Or better still,
Your days at peace on Middle-earth
In mirth
Fulfil!
J. R. R. Tolkien.
Which book is this from? I donβt recognize the passage. Because of the rhyme my guess would be a Hobbit related novella, and because I hadnβt read those ones.
The Adventures of Tom Bombadil
Should be an Amazon package cause they abuse USPS as a service cause Fedex, UPS, etc aint delivering up there or on tops of mountains. USPS will though. But it's not "profitable." Because it's a service not a business dipshits.
Skyrim courier would find a way
All just to tell you the museum in Dawnstar is open.
Nothing worse then the postman who had to kill himself to deliver a letter to Death in tv show I watched once. Good Omens was the show.
I like this comic but Beetle Moses needs to actually look at a tortoise, haha.
Their arms and legs don't pop out of holes in their shells, their shells are more like wraps around their torsos (it's a strapless dress, not a onesie). Also those scutes (panels of the shell) are fucked.
... Why yes, I'm fun at parties, why do you ask?
Also wtf is up with that house. Who puts windows above the door only
And those birds could not possibly fly.
Also why are there letters floating in the sky, that's not realistic at all
There's a manga about exactly this

Omfg this is so relatable from doing deliveries
At least he found the turtle
