This comic now may be banned in Florida, either for being too educational or unsuitable for K-12 children because we can’t say those things (“educational”).

 

As always, don’t forget to subscribe, absolutely free (see the space below). Also, bring in your friends, right from the start. Share this link with them; the first six strips set up the idea, and the rest is just plain fun.

Maybe you’d just like to buy a cup of coffee for me (I think better when I’m caffeinated). I appreciate it. (BTW, that link will take you to my Ko-Fi information, not my Starbucks account. No obligation for clicking, I promise.)

You can also sponsor an individual comic, past or future, in whole or in part, with a link to your site or just a wave hello. For more details, send me an email by clicking on the “Contact” button at the top of the page.
