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).

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.
AI-generated comics aren't allowed.

Can you explain? Is it cheaper to eat out / eat processed foods than buy groceries to cook? I've never lived in a place with that situation, but I understand it's a possibility.

Not cheap to eat out (and processed food is... Only one I get is instant noodles but that one is just cuz I'm a lazy bastard XD) Another user pointed out the difference on what I said, not cooking out of necessity but cooking for fun is what I'm saying is expensive Cooking for myself is literally how I can make-do with all expenses, but actively randomly going to cook something when I dont have the necessity for it(eg. for fun) is something I can't spare because the amount of groceries I end up being able to purchase tends to be counted to last for the month/week in quite a tight budget

It isn't always like that, sometimes I can afford to get some extra eggs and flour to do a small cake, or last time with my mom we tried to make a sourdough(it was a disaster, I fucked up badly lulz), but those are quite hard for me to be able to do enough to call cooking a hobby.
