He’s back. Handsome man is here again. He is beaming, an approachable smile that quickens your heart. He is giving the thumbs up in front of a distinctive yellow Tour de France sign and it makes you happy to see him so happy. Then you notice it: His shirt says “Ride, have fun, feel good”. It must be about bikes but just thinking about the double entendre has you biting your lower lip. Mmmmm.
Photo of a man who is missing a pinky finger. He is holding up a sausage to mimic the missing finger. He is dashingly handsome. You find yourself wishing you knew him better. There’s something about his eyes, the wave of his hair, the smooth self-assuredness. Is this love?

Photo shows an exurban style two-lane street, with ditches on either side, no sidewalks, and a shoulder on only one side, which has been converted to an ad-hoc multi-use path, with flex posts and paint. However, it is blocked by household refuse and recycling bins, leaving nowhere for people to walk, bike, or use a wheelchair. In the foreground, the outline of a bike has been painted on the ground, allegedly indicating that this is a bike lane. The implicit message is that bikes are less than garbage.

Screenshot of a Facebook post showing an obviously fake life-sized horse made of bread. The putative baker is quoted as saying “I made every detail with love but no one cares” which is obvious engagement bait. Underneath, the Facebook ai bot suggests a number of questions, including “how did you create the details?” To which it makes up the start of an answer, which is “She probably put a lot of thought into designing the bakery, including the horse shaped sign.” Of course, there is no sign.
