just wait
In the end, without some kind of society to support you, all you can do with your wealth is stick it up your ass.
(Like not you zarathustra0, the figurative "you".)
One understands.
I'm pretty confused actually, how do I get the 20 rolls of quarters out of my asshole?
You go back in time and slap yourself for thinking of doing something so stupid.
Don't worry, they're doing their best to replace society with LLMs.
They seem to have a pretty good stranglehold on it in the mean time, though.
Fun fact: this is how fire fighters used to be.
There'd be fire markers on the outer walls to indicate which fire protection company covered that building and whichever firefighter turned up would bill that fire protection company who'd then bill the customer/customer's insurance company.
Edit: typo.
Fact: Yes.
Fun: Not so much.
There is a scene in gangs of new york that pretty accurately shows how some fire fighters worked back then.
City where I live burned to the ground TWO times so they finally established a fire department in the 1800s
Remember, according to their followers California deserves this for being heathens. Not the flood in NC though, or the hurricane in FL. Those are just flukes, but anyone in CA deserves it according to them. Even this guy.
This is indistinguishable from satire for me. I honestly can't tell if it is or isn't.
It ain't going to get any easier either.
Eat the rich
We should know this is the way... Mother nature is cooking them for us ffs
But first, roast the rich!
For as much as authoritarians and the GOP voters hate California, a lot of them live there. Just another facet of their "Rules for thee" lifestyle.
Think of Trump, a billionaire New York real estate mogul, who's made his career off the support of people who... hate rich city-dwellimg developers.
Some of them are leaving - and making a big spectacle of it and using their departure to feed into the lie that "EvErYoNe iS LeAviNg CaLiFoRniA!!1!"
But I wish more of the really obnoxious ones would leave. The reasonable Republicans/moderate conservatives? I have no problem with them staying and promoting a different perspective. That's good for the state. But the reactionary hard-core cult members can fuck right off.
I have no problem with them staying and promoting a different perspective.
I wish conservatism wasn't the only different perspective being promoted. It's the gateway to all the bullshit happening everywhere.
I mean I absolutely hate and despise NY despite living there for 26 years. I finally had the opportunity to move away and did but it was a solid 8 years before I could.
I’m sure there are Californians who feel the same.
ironically Wasser, of course means water in German ... Wasserman will pay any amount.. for water
"what do you mean money cant solve side effects of climate crisis"
Crassus: laughs maniacally
Thinking big and thinking ahead are woke, I want to throw money at any problem instead.
Fake, but funny.
Hasn't California had super majority democratic rule for like ten years straight? Why is op complaining on Trump supporter?
Trump withholds aid from states he didn't win, or governor's he doesn't like. Regressive climate policy in general, remember when he said Cali should rake the forest. X poster wasn't satire, and vocally supports a regime that will abandon him to flames

Looks like they have had trifecta (3/3) and two thirds control for last 33 years... But sure 4 years of Trump did this.
California has adopted a responsible climate agenda. Unfortunately, there's the rest of the country not doing this.

How about disaster prevention additions? Increased budget for lafd, or has the budget been cut......
I said California, and you are changing the scope. But yeah, that was a bad move to take money from the FD.
Well the scope for California is the same...
"The 2024-25 California state budget, which Governor Gavin Newsom signed into law in June 2024, slashed funding for wildfire and forest resilience by $101 million as part of a series of cutbacks according to an analysis by the state's Legislative Analyst's Office"
