No, no, he's bad in every way, there's just no concrete examples

[–] nandeEbisu@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago

If he is capable of hating genocide, what other hate does he hold in his heart?

It is impossible to take an unflattering picture of the guy. I don't like idolizing politicians, but it's hard not to

he's also melting my cynicism away.

It is the New York post, it has never not been a fucking right-wing rag.

Ha, they know what's up, thanks for sharing that I never heard this one.

As much as I like Mamdani, that is a pretty poor posture for riding a bike.
You gotta use the balls of your feet! It's much more effiecient and comfortable

He is riding a short distance in dress shoes, not racing. His priority is having his shoes not slip off the pedals, not peak efficiency.

[–] Humanius@lemmy.world 7 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

I usually ride my bike casually, not racing either, and I still like the bikeride to not be heavier than it needs to be.
That said, I have never cycled using dress shoes, so that might be a valid point.

They are very slippery. He is riding correctly for his clothes. 👍

My shin definitely remembers trying it

Your balls are on your feet?? Medical science has sure come a long way..

[–] huppakee@lemmy.world 4 points 3 weeks ago

It's either that, or it's public education that still has a long way to go /jk

[–] Proprietary_Blend@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago

I wouldn't worry. Photographs only take a few moments

[–] AllNewTypeFace@leminal.space 9 points 3 weeks ago

Did they say it was a “Mao-style bicycle” like the (old British-made) one Jeremy Corbyn was photographed on?

[–] inari@piefed.zip 5 points 3 weeks ago

Legitimately a clever headline

[–] eestileib@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

"Zo" is still Alonzo Mourning to me...

[–] ceenote@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago

Is "Zoma" a thing? I feel like that could be a thing.

[–] whyNotSquirrel@sh.itjust.works 1 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

what does it mean actually?

[–] eestileib@lemmy.blahaj.zone 7 points 3 weeks ago

I believe they are using it as an abbreviation for Zohran

[–] funksoulkitchen@lemmy.zip 1 points 3 weeks ago

Is this real?
