Dude, public transport can be terrifying, but it depends. I agree with all the other points. It can be scary being trapped in a moving box when someone starts getting hostile. That was experience on busses about 1/10 times? I'm not sure, but it did freak me out. Usually, the worst part was just getting talked at even though I was wearing headphones.

We definitely need more public transportation, though.

One time, I was smoking a cigarette in my car, outside of my house. A cop pulled up behind me and blasted their lights. They asked me a ton of questions, most of which I refused to answer. I gave them ID which had my FUCKING address, and they still said, "You ain't from around here are you?". Mother fucker, you don't even live in this zipcode. You are at MY address. It was a Pacific beach surfing sticker and a Bernie sticker. They also told me to take them off. They went off in a pout, and the deputy told me they were just training the newbie. To what, profile people?

Fair, it would be cool if they mentioned something like, "I replaced the old guy. He was pretty quiet. I think he shot the former owner."

Gender swapped Boone?

Nah, for sure. I believe it was about $500 originally, but after shipping, taxes, background check, other fees, etc... about 1k. Half the price was paperwork. That was about 8 years ago? I'm not sure if the gen3 became more available. I know the shield is pretty cheap.

I hope you enjoy your move!

Dog, have you heard of "black fatigue" recently? Racists are having a "mask off moment," again, for sure.

I love seeing their recreations of recreations from real life.

They made Dinky the T-rex from Novac, which is Mr. Rex from the Cabazon Dinosaurs

Also, is that Manny Vargas in Dinky's mouth? You can see them moving in the video.

What? You don't want fake direct download links? I like my page to be covered in random green download icons. Thank you very much. My grandma loves getting her identity stolen, and so do I.

I'm expecting the files to look like a bad SCP article.

It's ALMOST like he's trying to justify a military coup.

This is CA, including the course and all the bells and whistles. My glock was 1k alone. We're limited to the gen3 glock due to the California roster, and it's still expensive (mostly paperwork).

Edit: My bad, I also included ccw in my head.

I don't like reddit anymore, but there's /r/liberalgunowners. I'd suggest taking a safety course, then renting (edit: multiple firearms) at the range, and then buying what you think you need/ like.

Edit: Guy bellow me is also right.

Edit edit: I forgot about this part. You should prepare yourself to spend the amount of money needed to buy an older, used car. It depends on the state, but that was my experience. Around 4k with EVERYTHING involved.

The spots on the Orca aren't actually their eyes. Those are spots on my dogs nose.

The other day, I made a post about Firefox's web extensions, specifically for YouTube. A lot of people pointed out Mozilla's recent TOS update, which pertains to selling personal data. I noticed there were no suggestions, though. What alternative would you suggest, Lemmy?

I tried using the original video title, but it wouldn't let me post that for obvious reasons.

 

It can be a bit buggy at times, but when it comes to just playing music with the screen locked, it's perfect.

Edit: I forgot to also mention that ad blocker extensions make sailing the seas on mobile much more manageable. Extentions, in general, have been a really nice addition.

 
 

Recently, the Daily show has felt a bit self defeatist, but this episode was on fire!

 

I'm a farmer in San Diego County. In fallbrook/ temecula, there's a truck weigh station that's full of ICE operatives near me. Today, they blocked off the entrance to the only road that leads to a bunch of farms, including mine. I personally have a family farm, but I know my neighbors and their employees, and they're hard-working everyday people regardless of their immigration status.

To make a long story short, how do I legally fuck with ICE while they do a raid?

Edit: the only thing I can think of is recording and doing a verbal protest. I could try to share the footage with the local news. Given the current political climate, I'm not sure if they'd care. I don't want to see the people I've existed next to dissappear.

It's here: https://maps.app.goo.gl/MbUzWLDT73swafxf7?g_st=ac

If you know someone who works at Moon Farm Nurseries, fucking tell them RIGHT NOW to lay low. They're compromised.

Edit 2: they took everyone. The fields up and down our road are empty. I couldn't even get a picture because I had to drive past like nothing was happening. Fuck.

Edit 3: a couple of truckers pulled up with double wides and blocked the road. I can't tell whoes side their on. Whish me luck.

Edit 4: I think mite have made a checkpoint for me. I think I'll be fine, but I'm not sure. Live update.

Edit 5: I'm fine, one of the people in the double wide got taken too. Fuck this day. I hope everyone is doing okay.
