Dude, I am in Texas of all places. Damn Wind Turbines are froze and they are doing rolling brown outs like a third world country. WTF. People are pissed.
Not in love with Abbott but he doesn't control that. ERCOT, the body that controls our grid, does. They are the ones in charge of the rolling blackouts. And Austin libbies were bitching up a storm over the outages. ERCOT is divided into regions and your region has decided to fuck you over, not Abbott.
How the fuck did Texas get all this blue state bullshit? Austin's a lefty shithole with BLM attacking people and now the damn oil capital of the USA can't turn the lights on? Get your shit together Texas!
Is it really impossible to have a based city anymore? I grew up in NYC in the 70s - none of this shit would fly. Zero anti-patriotic shit in the streets or in the schools.
Because Republicans in office only do what the money tells them to. If money and jobs are in this propped up "green energy" and tech sector, then they will be head over heels to let them into the state. There is no cultural backlash or fight from the GOP. You are either in the party of pure evil- Democrat- or the party of lesser evil (money)- Republican. There is no preservation of American or local/state culture whatsoever.
WTF is wrong with us as Americans??? I am so done with the "lesser evil" party and if Texas can't hold onto it's state culture, we are all fucked with fuck sauce.
I have professional experience on much smaller electric systems. "Independent" if you will. It sounds good to someone who doesn't understand all it takes is a broken transformer and a backed up repair company and you'll be screwed anywhere. Buy a generator.
Ohioan here, I saw your predicted low temperatures. If it stays below 30 degrees it may be safer to throw your food in coolers and stash it outside. As for yourselves...I do hope you have enough spare blankets and sleeping bags to snuggle up in for the foreseeable future.

"Rolling outages" I'm 17 hours and counting without electric. Outage took out our water supplier 12 hours ago.
I am lucky in TX with power still. Mom & brother out all day. Obama made the wind turbines here. I hope they are permanently wrecked.
Abbott is an establishment politician. He should not be trusted. We need a patriot put into Texas capital asap. Not Abbott the mask pansy.
How the fuck does coal and fossil fuels freeze when its clearly not a problem.
abbott is a fucking fraud

Same way every state does: Chekists metastasize to cities.

Commie infiltration throughout education.
As soon as a city becomes a hub of economic activity the parasites will descend en masse and transform it into a cherenkov blue shithole.

Haha but muh independent grid! Sorry not laughing at your situation but man do those idiots drive me nuts.

so the "independent" grid was a BIG part of secession.....i guess that talk is over with
PLEASE DO NOT move to Florida....
We're full.
Abbott and his fucking masks. Abbott and his green energy. Hes a fucking career politician, time to get his establishment ass out of office.

Welcome to California. My power goes out like once a week because the grid is shit in general
