How to Expand Your Palate

November 04, 2024 by Scott Meyer

BRIEF PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT:

I try to keep politics out of the comic. I want people from every point in the spectrum to feel welcome here, and frankly, I just don't find the government very funny. Also, I suspect the majority of the comics readers have a good idea where I stand. That said, it is election time in the USA.

If you are a US citizen, please vote.

Specifically, please vote for Kamala Harris.

She is not perfect. She is not even close to perfect. But, she far better than the alternative.

As always, thanks for using my Amazon Affiliate links (US, UK, Canada), and for considering joining my Patreon

How to Make a Bold Fashion Choice

May 02, 2022 by Scott Meyer

I have been creating new comics for about two months now, and posting them for about a month. I am thrilled and delighted with the enthusiasm of the response I’ve received, and shocked at the realization of how much effort the strip requires. (Imagine how much worse it would be if I actually drew new pictures for the damned thing!)

I have taken the advice of several readers and started a Patreon for Basic Instructions.

https://www.patreon.com/basicinstructions

It has one tier, with a suggested fee of $3.00 a month. Joining the Patreon is a way of letting me know that you want me to keep making strips, helping me cover my overhead, and compensating me for my efforts. (Yes, “efforts.” I make more than one effort.)

As always, thanks for using my Amazon Affiliate links (US, UK, Canada).
