That's exactly how it should work, but after finding out that at least some of them do this to make you immediately start a subscription once it's over, I've avoided all sites that do this.

This Moscow-based artist continues growing his fan base on social media platforms and now has over 1.4 million followers on Instagram alone. Gudim shared how it makes the artist feel that his account grows so rapidly.

“My comics are about what I see around me, about incidents from my life, about observations, and given that my life cannot be called "unusual", so I'm not surprised that many people face the same problems or situations. It's also very nice to see when you're not alone and when people around the world can feel the same way,” shared Gudim.

    Unfortunately, the expert talks over the heads of young people. So the dolt with a tiny bit of life experience appeals to the younger generation. Young people don't trust older adults mainly because a lot of the older generation push religious views over scientific understanding.

    The artist consistently makes new comics and seems to never run out of ideas and energy. Gudim shared how many comics he creates on a weekly basis. 

    “A few years ago, I would have answered: about 2 comics a week, but now the situation is a little different. I have a second project (Yes, But (you could see it)), I still get commissions for commercial illustrations, and I also do some of my drawings in animation form (and since I have little to no animation skills, this process can take several days). Given all this, my answer would be almost every day. I draw something almost every day, I don't have clear days off, even during the holidays. I can draw something on the plane or in the hotel room. I can’t say that this rhythm is tiring because I feel that I can stop at any moment, but if I don’t draw for 1-2 days, I already want to draw again,” shared with his obsession comic artist Gudim.

    Bullfighting goes beyond cruelty and cowardice. Just because it's wrapped up in a country's "culture" doesn't make it right and doesn't protect it. Slavery was once wrapped up in Africa's culture.

    Gudim is very grateful for his fans all over the platforms. He also shared this message with the Pandas: “I hope that you will not be too critical of what I do. Although, perhaps, the Internet was created specifically for this. Comics/drawings/creativity is as much a part of our life as trees, sky, and birds, and I really like being inside it. All I want is to invite you to the world that I created, and maybe it will give you a little joy, distract you from problems, maybe make you think, or inspire you to some kind of your own creativity. Thank you for your time!”

    When I do have my nails longer than usual it isn't too hard to do. You get used to it and tasks just become easy to do. I do them myself. Way cheaper and much more fun then sitting in a salon.

    Same. The camera is helpful before you start pulling out for stuff you can't see that's low, and it's great for making sure you're in straight, especially when you don't want to open the door bc it's raining. But it's not a great idea to use it exclusively.

    In my state you have to parallel park to pass the driving test. And you automatically fail if you do not turn around and look as you start to back up. You can use the backup camera when you want to adjust position at the end only.

    I wear a very nice jacket with Amtrak (incompetently run USA passenger rail network) on it, because I like riding the trains (in spite of the comment earlier). In Chicago was accosted by someone who insisted that I must work for Amtrak, despite my denials, because of the jacket. Finally, I asked him how it was up on the North Face. He looked totally bewildered as I pointed at his jacket, and walked away.

    I once had a sweatshirt that I purchased to support a business I believed in. It came with a label on the front of the clothing company that made it. I removed the label. I bought the shirt to support the one, not the other.

    Note that if this holder is properly designed, the flap is there to separate sheets. You pull down to get sheets, then up to tear. And the fact that the flap is hanging the way it is indicates the paper is empty or nearly empty.

    Dear God, people really lost their shirts over my comment! I just meant that if you use a vegan alternative in the topping, the whole drink would be lactose free, if you wanted that. I was just offering a solution for people that wanted that. If you used lactose free milk, it wouldn't be vegan (unless you also used vegan milks which are lactose free)

    This one doesn't have anything to do with what you said. It's about genetics and that the child won't inherit whatever you want them to. Fir example they probably didn't want the baby to inherit their big nose and big ears, but the baby did nevertheless.

    I think it is about an author. Writing about a relationship.

    The message is that riding the bus doesn’t make you a poor person. People judge people for using ride share more than the other way around. As is proven by the fact that all of the replies to your comment defend avoiding public transport.

    I think that's what it is. Guy in the car LOOKS like he has more money, but he really just spent it all on a nice, but unnecessary, car and has to live in a bad apartment as a result. Whereas the guy on the bus was smart with his money and used public transportation, so he could afford to live in a nicer apartment.

    The bus is a valid form of transportation, and doesn’t make you poor for using it. People who are afraid of “looking poor” will never get rich.

    You probably won't get it unless you've lived in eastern Europe. The guy with a BMW lives in a s****y soviet panel apartment, or commie block. These are terrible s**t old buildings which you can distinguish by the white cement lines that connect the prefabricated concrete panels. The only thing missing is ugly yellow aluminium balconies.

    If you knew how filthy usa buses are, you wouldn't ride one. Can't speak for other countries.

    Depends on the bus, the ones I've been on have been pretty clean lol. Also, a lot of people who ride the bus do it out of necessity

    What are you talking about? This is when people queue up, but someone's mate is at the top of the line so they feel entitled to skip the line and go stand by their mate

    A massive physical flight started in my Costco because someone left their mom with a single thing in her hands in the line. Then 20 minutes later the guy shows up with an overflowing cart full of stuff and jumps to the front to be with the mom just as it's her turn. The people who were waiting in line behind them (rightly) got upset because they picked that line based on the fact that she only had one item, not 100 items in the newly appeared cart. They had to call the police to break up the flight and everyone involved got banned. I got covered in hummus someone threw in the fight and I was 2 aisles over. I wasn't thrilled.

    Yeah, years ago Mandy Patinkin on _Dead Like Me_ went off on a woman who used exactly this scam to weasel herself ahead in the line at the post office.

    Yes, this is how thinking works, don't know what to say about the guy in the green shirt, but the red guy knows and the guy in the hoodie decided he could wait a little longer.

    The Spinal Association in the UK got these banned because of the harm they do (even at low speeds) to people with back/spine issues. I wish the rest of the world would follow suit.

    When I was healing from multiple spinal fractures, I discovered that leaning forward slightly so my back wasn't in contact with the seat back made the bumps far less painful and easier to deal with.

    What even are these? Speed bumps? Why so many? A stop light with a countdown timer is a pretty cool idea though.
