Why does a state like California that has supermajorities in both houses of the legislature not have a livable wage, housing guarantees, universal healthcare, and other very progressive policies?

I keep being told it’s because of the Republicans that we can’t have nice things. So what gives in California? We should be overflowing with progressive policies.

ArcaneSlime,

Shhh don’t realize the democrats don’t care about you either, some guy will say “both sides” and that would be lame, we just have to be quiet about the failings of the democrat party because the republicans are worse so we can’t even discuss the possibility of making things better.

ArcaneSlime,

Look into installing a custom ROM, some phones are not supported but many are by at least one custom ROM. I personally installed GrapheneOS and recommend that or calyxOS (never used it but hear good things) but those are only available for pixels, iirc LineageOS has the widest support but also isn’t quite as secure. F-droid and Aurora store for apps.

ArcaneSlime,

Kinda same, though I’d like to figure out how to make a raid setup to improve. Atm I just back up my absolute essentials on every drive, and my dotfiles on one (well, two including my install), my totally-not pirated stuff on another, etc. Tbh I kinda use “I can just redownload that” as a back up method lol.

ArcaneSlime,

Man I’d love to see that archive (unless it were anything personal) lol, like a modern day library of Alexandria.

ArcaneSlime,

Which tbf self selects for “people who kinda deserve it” over “innocent people, at least ostensibly.”

ArcaneSlime,

Yup, and these are the hands we’re given.

ArcaneSlime,

FFLs are completely removed, as the switch, being illegal, is not a “regulated item” in the same sense as a lower/legal mg and cannot be sold.

(Yes yes, if you have a class III SOT you can make one and pay the tax stamp and then it’s only transferrable to other SOTs. But if you’re an SOT you can have a Glock 18, so why would you?!)

ArcaneSlime,

My mistake! Must’ve misunderstood!

Study reveals "widespread, bipartisan aversion" to neighbors owning AR-15 rifles (www.psypost.org)

A recent study published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences reveals that across all political and social groups in the United States, there is a strong preference against living near AR-15 rifle owners and neighbors who store guns outside of locked safes. This surprising consensus suggests that when it comes...

ArcaneSlime,

The sound of a charging handle racking isn’t much different and the exact same effect could be achieved, fwiw. Also studies have shown that 5.56 or .223 HP penetrate less through drywall than buckshot, and bird can be much less effective than your grandpa thinks. Remember Dick Cheyney’s “hunting trip?”

Though the AR is useless for the birds.

ArcaneSlime,

For example we used to restrict concealed carry to those who do the appropriate paperwork and demonstrate sufficient need.

*And it is still this way in about 1/2 of the states.

Now anyone can.

*In about 1/2 of the states, unless of course they are a prohibited possessor.

Just trying to be accurate, no pun intended.

ArcaneSlime,

Tbh it’s by design. It’s way easier to scare people with the big black scary call of duty gun and convince them to get on board with that, saying “no pistols are fine but those rifles that function the literal same are the issue,” then later you can try to convince people on the pistols with “actually since rifles only accounted for 500/60,000 gun deaths a year we have to ban the pistols now too.”

ArcaneSlime,

I had a guy pull a knife on me in the walmart parking lot, apr 2020. He decided to leave instead of stab me, and would you like to know why? Because in your summation “I’m a coward” who decided that instead of being stabbed I would reach for my firearm. Call me a coward all you want but I got my groceries and he probably found some more courageous victim, I’ll call that a wash.

ArcaneSlime,

LOL for a second I legit thought “The Contras? They mostly used AK-47s we sold them, right?”

ArcaneSlime,

I want to open up an abortion clinic/FFL. Gonna run a special, free AR-15 with every abortion (provided the patient passes a NICs check).

That oughta rustle like, everyone’s jimmies.

ArcaneSlime,

Pfft, only losers. I’d build them and work on them for my neighbors and wouldn’t even charge labor.

ArcaneSlime,

This just means that one doesn’t have to show “proper cause” to get a permit. For instance NYC (which was the case in question) which only gave permits to those who could show “proper cause” which ended up being only rich and/or famous people and politicians who are better than their lowly serfs constituents. Still have to get the permit in NYC, they just can’t deny you because “you aren’t important enough to need it” anymore.

ArcaneSlime,

Try that lol see what happens.

ArcaneSlime,

Well “yes,” but “that is because to the ideological vegans, it is a religion,” so not “nah” but “yes and-.”

ArcaneSlime,

Fuck a ban on ice cream, fuck a ban on abortion, I say ban BANS!

ArcaneSlime,

No it makes perfect sense, let me break it down for you.

nah, this is how vegan treat others

See, here he denies that this is how the religious treat people with “nah,” offering up vegans as the “true” exhibitors of this behavior. Now to break down my response piece by piece.

Well “yes,”

He is correct, that is how ideological vegans, the ones who feel you should be vegan for moral reasons and as a result are very preachy and evangelistic, operate.

but “that is because to the ideological vegans, it is a religion,”

but the ideological vegans behave this way due to the fact that ideological veganism is tantamount to a religion

so not “nah” but “yes and-.”

So, with this in mind, the “nah” isn’t accurate, as both ideological vegans and the religious both act with the same vitriolic fervor due to them considering themselves morally superior to their respective “out” groups, so instead of

nah, this is how vegan treat others

It is

Yes (this is how the religious treat others), and this is how vegan treat others, as well.

To further explain the “yes and-” joke, Here is a youtube video from some random guy about the rules of improv. #2- “yes and-” is of particular import to this discussion, as it may be key to understanding the reference.

I hope that helped you understand my complex comment, no need to glitch about it.

(Just preemptively, to explain, see, “glitch” rhymes with “bitch,” and so you see a pun was made in which you said I’m glitching and I said “no need to glitch about it,” you see. I hope this one was not similarly misunderstood.)

ArcaneSlime,

Nah, the police in my country can compel use of biometrics but not password/key. I refuse to set them up at all.

Outside that even, on like a phone, what if I’m sleeping and a GF uses my finger without consent? It’s a security hole imo.
