A feeling of power, a sense of pleasure by ruining it for someone. The reasons are many, and each more despicable than the other.

Both camps are right!

Cheap bikes just don’t ride nowhere as nicely nor do they last as expensive bikes do.

BUT! The worst thing about owning an expensive bike is owning an expensive bike.

It’s a thief magnet and source of envy of other riders.

You really need to find a sweet spot between a quality bike and being able to leave it locked in the city without having pangs of anxiety of it being stolen.

I’ve heard that Krita is an amazing drawing software.

What are your experiences with it?

Wow really cool. I really like the art style.

I grew up in eastern europe and things work differently there.

Oftentimes the cops would fish for bribes. Cops would pick you up on the street/stop you in traffic and search you/your car/whatever in hopes of finding something to hook onto and escalate the situation further and put you in a legally difficult situation.

Then they would generously offer that they can make it all go away if somebody from your family comes and brings X amount of money.

This didn’t happen just to me, in most countries of the former eastern block that’s just a fact of life.
