The artist has been making "Yes, But" comics since 2016. These comics are based on the idea that people often have conflicting feelings or thoughts in their lives.
Gudim sees the world in a strange and unusual way. He once said that this is a good way to fight boredom – by finding new and interesting things in everyday life.
When questioned about whether the artist includes suggestions from others, he explained that he often takes notes and might come up with a drawing idea later from those notes. "Some ideas are offered to me by close people or followers on Instagram. If the idea seems good to me, then I will gladly try to translate it into a drawing."
We've noticed that Gudim often posts real-life 'yes, but' stories shared by others on Instagram. This made us interested in how his interaction with followers affects him. The artist responded by saying that he feels enthusiastic about it. He enjoys the fact that the format has gained global recognition, and he finds many of the ideas sent to him to be creative in their absurdity. "I like that the format is reflected in real life," Gudim added.

This is called "Elephant racing". Anyone who drives long distances has seen it. The average length of a truck like this in the US is 22 meters. At a 1 Km/h differential in speed, there is a .3 meters per second speed differential. If you double the length of the truck to include a safe distance to move over, it will take somewhere near 2.5 minutes for the truck that is doing 81 Km/h to pass the slower truck. Now the average speed of a car is around 115 KPH, so you can see why "Elephant racing" causes huge backups on the freeway.
Clothing requirements should be for everybody. This is sexism, too.
Here in Spain, they usually have metal blockages near the top so people throw less trash there
Someone straight up threw a tomato on that moscito before it got smashed.

Does anyone else hate these? I feel like they simplify things to the point of absurdity which I don't enjoy.
Yeah, they really irk me. It seems like every single one of them belongs on r/im14andthisisdeep
Assuming they're not randomthing-phobic.
I did see a good one a while back that pointed out the hypocrisy of unattainable beauty standards. The comic showed a woman ripping up a picture of a woman with attractive proportions but then idealising the 6ft bodybuilder male physique. The person who wrote the blog article on it clearly didn't get the point of the "yes, but" and she went on a rant about how all women should be considered beautiful.
Ehhhh, some are funny but most are kinda dumb or seem quite biased
I’ve seen different ones of these before and they were all quite good but I do agree that these ones were shite.
