    Talking about motivation and creative blocks, Sergio shared that his motivation often wanes. "I have stages where nothing comes. I usually go to my notebook and review it; there is always something that gives me a push."

    Sad how many parents are like this. My mom's a ped nurse and she says the rate of language skills for toddlers and young children is decreasing from her experience. Parents are awnsering "hardly ever read/talk to their baby" more and more.

    Sergio usually draws in a small book that always accompanies him. "There, I capture ideas that occur to me or that I see around me. Then I transfer them to digital. I try to condense complex ideas into simple drawings. Sometimes, this simplification has made the drawings take on meanings different from what they originally had; however, I love that."

    "Each person adapts the drawing to their experiences. Once uploaded to the internet, the work is no longer 100% mine; the interpretation, which is part of the work, belongs to each viewer."

    It's missing the homeless man yelling at people. Source: Ride public transit lol And honestly, I've literally never seen this either, most people are relatively present because they don't want to miss their stop. Now - the bus driver DOES have to tell people to get up sometimes lol but usually people do on their own.

    I was once almost hit by a kid looking at his phone while riding a bike. I yelled "Heads up!" and he had the nerve to glare at me as he swerved by.

    Wtf is this. Education means you learn about OTHER things. You don't have to fly, to LEARN about flying. The penguin shouldn't feel bad. Edit: Most understand me wrong. The penguin should learn all there is about flying. It should use this knowledge to be an even better swimmer!! It's not the education that is wrong for teaching you things that you cannot master or grasp. You should pay attention ANYWAY and use the knowledge for something that you CAN do! A wise man can do more with a stick, than a fool with a sword. LEARN it, know yourself and grow yourself. And if you want to be good. Follow God.

    Yes, we've lost all desire to innovate because we innovated a mini-computer that sits in our hands and gives us access to all known human knowledge.
