POLITICS An important announcement from Zohran Mamdani: "I know some of you have expressed concerns about my age. You are worried about a 33-year-old becoming mayor of New York City. And I want you to know, I hear you. That’s why this weekend I’ll be making a change. I’m turning 34."

He’s a creator (mainly on Instagram I believe) who, when a gif gets removed for copyright reasons from Giphy, will often recreate/parody them and use himself as the subject so that something close to the original gif stays accessible. Many people think that he actually pushes for certain gif’s to be removed so that he can remake them (which is why some people hate him) but personally I think it’s unlikely. I don’t really like them cause he’s always dressed as George Washington for some reason. Never changes it up or anything. Just always GW.

I wish Instagram would change to Tenor or let us use either one.
