Texas is asking Texans to conserve energy this weekend

@AthrillatheHunt Sorry, right.

@AthrillatheHunt Interesting.

@Zaphod42 The citezens end up paying for big business. Just imagine what it will be like this summer when the grid can't keep up.

@Pitchblue I heard some people were getting freakishly high power bills.

I'm not a fan of big government - but when you deal in a commodity that literally brings life and death - I see the need for government oversight. In this case it looks like they have received more than they bargained for.

One of the few reasons I'm glad I'm in Florida :)
(yeah we have TONS of other problems)

@Pretzel Don't you have the Green Slime again. Blue green algea feeding off of all the pollution in the waterways. Meanwhile the Florida politicians keep taking Corporate and Agriculture lobby money. DeSantis is to busy fighting with Disney to do anything about the pollution.

@Pretzel In Feb. Iheard of 600, 800 dollars for No Power. Abbott didn't do anything about that.

@independentone I've heard it described as the Superhighway for illegal drugs from Mexico.

@Pitchblue I'm sure it is. Simple solution for the illegal drug problem is: DON'T DO DRUGS

@independentone Repubs love living shithole States because they keep electing Repub dummies.

@Fukfacewillie An ol fashion shoot out. This weekend is predicted to be very hot. It's not even summer.
