!fuckcars@lemmy.world ready to use this as ammunition
Yes, Trump is dumb shit, everybody knows; this isn’t influencing the election at all, the morons who vote for Trump will still vote for Trump.
Fucker could be dead and the idiots would still vote for him, his death was a deep state conspiracy.
Heads up, you replied to the wrong thread (I assume)
Nah, bots will be bots
Happy coik day…
Warning warning people might find this video he posted himself to his own. Social media distressing.
Pull the other one it’s got fucking bells on it.
I can’t tell if his helmet saved his life or if he wasn’t wearing a helmet. The way he avoids directly saying a helmet saved his life in the video while pushing the importance of wearing one makes me believe he wasn’t wearing his at the time and came very close to making his last omelette.
Pretty sure he says (and the article quotes him)
“I want to wish you all a happy Father’s Day, but please, please, please wear a helmet. If I didn’t, honestly, I wouldn’t be here now.”
Holy nuts that bruise is a beaut! https://ichef.bbci.co.uk/news/1536/cpsprodpb/1a06/live/a42086d0-2b5e-11ef-bdc5-41d7421c2adf.png.webp
Damn. That’s a new unlock right there.
Feels weird calling that a bruise, even though that’s what is
Like, they should have a different name for it when it’s that brutal holy shit
Pretty sure they do. Something like hematoma or something.
He was wearing one. Later in the BBC article it mentions him posting pictures of his ruined helmet on
twitterInstagram
Ah, yes. The totally relevant story about a celebrity bicycle accident in World News…
