How to Devise an Innovative Solution
I actually flipped this one so that Rick had the problem I do in real life. It’s hard to say why. The mumbling coming from behind him just felt like more of a Rick punchline to me.
Anyway, yeah, I started noticing that I would have to turn...

How to Deal With Your Character Flaws
I haven’t actually taken any pictures, but there are two dogs that pass every day, and it makes me happier when I see them.
One is an elderly bulldog I have named “Dense Boy” who shuffles by with an old lady. They don’t move very fas...

How to Watch History Repeat Itself
I have a Meta Quest 2. It’s a good game platform, but I found most of the actual games to get old pretty quickly. It’s a very good personal theater solution, but the resolution lets it down a bit in that regard. For productivity, it offers a t...

How to Process a Disturbing Dream
I’ve always thought I was totally okay with being bald, but when I woke up from a dream where I had hair, I was a little disappointed. On the balance, if I’d been given the choice between hair and no hair, I might well have chosen baldness. It...

How to Seem Wise
The same thing goes for touching someone else’s phone. You know they’ve used it in the bathroom, then washed their hands, but didn’t wash the phone. Really, you shouldn’t borrow another person’s phone unless you’d be willing to hold ha...

How to Identify the Song Fragment Stuck in Your Head
My memories of the show BJ and the Bear are sketchy at best. It was very much something that we only watched in our house if the weather was bad and there was nothing better on. I hate to go all “in my day” on you, but people who grew...

How to Handle It When Things Get Weird
I dunno. Maybe it’s just me, but standing there over the sink rubbing a plate with my bare hands just felt unwholesome, somehow. Like, if someone had walked in on me doing it, I might have had a hard time explaining myself.
But, then again...

How to Realize What You Should Have Said
Thanks for your patience over the last two weeks.
The move is 90% complete. As anyone who has moved a few times knows, “90% moved-in” means that we might be fully moved-in a week from now, or we might stay 90% moved-in the rest of the ti...

How to Let People Know About a Major Life Change
Yeah, Missy and I are moving.
I’ll tell you; you never realize how much junk you’ve accumulated until you have to pick all of it up and drive it around in a rented truck. There’s been more than one thing that, when I picked it up, I se...

How to Evaluate Your Readers' Opinions When Considering Making Changes to Your Comic
So, here’s what I’ve decided: if I have an idea for a comic where including instructions makes sense, I will include them. If, on the other hand, I have an idea where I feel like I’m trying to shoe-horn instructions in after the fact, I will...

Eventually, I'll Figure Out What to Write Here
The Rick art is a little wonky in this one. I took a bunch of new photos to work from (thus the change in facial hair) and am trying a new art method. While the current results are "acceptable," I'm not happy with them yet.
The real Ric came...

I Still Don't Know What to Write Here
“The science torpedo went badly wrong. Prepare the funeral torpedo!”
Spoilers ahead for Picard: Season 3.
There’s an episode of the show where an away team goes to Daystrom Station; where Starfleet keeps all of its most dangerous...

How to Manage Your Own Ignorance
They don’t actually go down in tunnels to dig it up. They pump water into the ground to dissolve the baking soda, pull the water back out and separate the baking soda from the water. What can I say? I never claimed to be a journalist over here.<...
