That's cool, I'm currently in Polk County, but I spend a lot of time in that area and even lived in Willis for a few years (2010-2013). I'll assume you're also familiar with SHECO then... their outage map shows all power is currently on, but at the beginning of all this, the rolling blackouts were only in counties on the ERCOT grid. As far as blackouts only affecting cities, my mom lives in Walker county, out in the sticks west of Huntsville, and the power at her place has been off and on every few hours the last few days, obviously part of the rolling blackouts. Thankfully, they appear to have ended, at least in her area, because she had power all day today. I just can't figure out the logic to any of this, none of it makes any sense.
Side note: I'm a building designer (basically a notch below architect). If you know where Sam's Liquor and Donuts is in Willis, the building going up behind them is one of our designs. It's not the prettiest thing, but the owners cheaped out on the nicer features we had planned.
Edit: Walker county IS on the ERCOT map.
I'm in East Texas too, and we've had power the whole time as well. Even though Texas has it's own power grid (ERCOT), it doesn't actually cover the whole state. The county I'm in is not on the ERCOT grid, is yours? I also figure this is why we haven't had the rolling blackouts like so many others in the state.

Nah, I understand the point of the post just fine. You might be missing our point though - it's a good post that could have been better if it had accurate information. We're trying to help you be better, but there's nothing we can do if you're not interested.
Honest answer? Because when you're too lazy to do your research, you make MAGA look bad. Don't worry too much though, just do better from here on.
I know, just stressing how important it is to put a little forethought into your statements before posting. It's something that seems to be terribly lacking these days. The one that always gets me is "loser" vs "looser".
Here's a quote that has stuck with me since my grandpa said it to me when I was a kid:
"It is better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to open one’s mouth and remove all doubt."
Age is just a number anyway, it doesn't matter at all.
Agreed, but only when applied strictly to adults. Otherwise, you sound like a pedo.
Turn off "community styling" in your settings
I saw that too, but then I noticed the eyebrows moving... extra nice touch.
Just like when it rains the day after you wash your car.
Correct. Basically, nothing in Texas is designed for weather like this. There are major differences in the building code for different climate zones, especially for insulation.

I was unemployed / underemployed for a several years after the 2008 crash... Between myself and my wife at the time (ex-wife as of 2013), our combined income in 2012 was around $17K and we got a "refund" of about $8,500. Tax credits can add up quickly if you don't make much and have kids (we had 2). Refunds aren't always comprised of overpayments, some of it is legalized wealth redistribution.
Or, "dammit Joe, you can't just go around sniffing everyone!"
It's no wonder they're fucking us... see definition #5.
No doubt. I got an internship in my field at the beginning of my junior year. I learned more on the job that year than I did in the entirety of my time in college. My senior year was a breeze. I was so far ahead of my classmates that the professor got me on the payroll to be his computer lab assistant.
Why would you assume he isn't familiar with it?
It doesn't matter if he is familiar with it or not. There are other people reading this forum that might be interested in this topic and haven't heard of it (like me). This is just another way to spread the word about something.
And what does it have to do with what he said?
Try looking it up yourself and find out instead of just bitching about it. I did, and it's actually quite relevant to what was said.
This guy puts it together pretty well...

Don't forget about the tunnels...

He says he will depart on Dec 23, says nothing about vacation.
Where does it say he's going on vacation?
She's a little south of 30, out in the woods between 1791 and 1374, so I guess SW of Huntsville would be more accurate. I know the plant you're talking about though (Tenaska Frontier, I think?). I pass it on my way to Bryan every once in a while, along with that stinky ass landfill.
Looking at the actual SHECO coverage map, she just might be getting power from that station, as her area is not covered by SHECO.
