Denormalize recording and streaming people in public. Especially if you're trying to get people onto public transportation, many potential riders are going to be put off by the idea of being photographed and recorded.

real talk if somebody takes a picture of me on the subway without asking me i'm gonna fight them, that's fucking weird

Yeah you’re gonna fight them right

Sure, don’t record people in public, but I don’t think it makes any difference in public transport ridership. Most people just pick whatever gets them to their destination quickest (and affordable). The problem is that in many cases this is the car.

Convenience and speed are probably the primary factors that impact people's decisions but I don't think you can discount secondary factors like safety and comfort.

Statistically, you’re more likely to use this.

Why two guns, what the fuck? Shouldn't a fucking, I dunno, .380 single stack pocket pistol be enough??? But who am I kidding Americans must always compensate for something, whether it be fucking akimbo lmao or if it ain't .45 ACP they think it's a fucking BB gun. The idiots.

[–] came_apart_at_Kmart@hexbear.net 25 points 5 months ago (1 children)

one gun to preemptively shoot the person you're afraid of, the other to plant on them to "make it look right".

[–] TheCynicalSaint@lemmy.ml 16 points 5 months ago (2 children)

Right? That's the thing that kinda bugs me, what the hell do you need to dual-carry for? Like, what situation really calls for that?

[–] itappearsthat@hexbear.net 18 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

well what happens is someone will try to rob you and you surrender your gun to them and as they admire it (you only buy the guns most highly esteemed by redditors so everyone will be impressed when they see it) you pull your other gun and shoot them

Switching weapons after mag dumping on grandma is faster than reloading

If you're going to this, at least have the courage to go full 17th-century pirate and carry 8-10 single-shot flintlocks.

[–] NewAcctWhoDis@hexbear.net 11 points 5 months ago

for real though the thing on the keys (Gerber Shard) is pretty handy, I used to carry one before I got a tiny pocket knife with a bottle opener

Taking photos of people without their permission and posting it online is seriously whack and should be stigmatized.

Do we have an Oregon Trail emoji? It wouldn't surprise me

Two pockets, a phone, and a wallet. That's all you need if you're just going somewhere to walk, explore, hang, or eat...

[–] Alisu@hexbear.net 7 points 5 months ago

I don't even carry a wallet anymore sometimes. I have digital documents on my phone and pay with my phone, so kinda just using my phone for everything

If I was lucky enough to live in a city, I would totally be the type of guy that would ride the MTA subways for fun.
