hi there, yes, hello. I am currently still without power 8 days after the storm hit. I am fortunate as I have a whole home generator. I had to install that after the 7th time of losing my very expensive diabetic medication/food/sanity from previous power failures. i hate it here so much but i can't leave because we're here to help my inlaws and they refuse to move. it is as bad as everyone thinks it is... it might actually be worse. thanks for an opportunity to vent. it's been and continues to be quite the ordeal. And no, i haven't attacked any linemen... i would make them cookies if they came to my neighborhood.
The state that embodies selfishness and the "I got mine" attitude is surprisingly blaming the electricity company and those helping restore power when a natural disaster hits.
I'm flabbergasted that the state isn't pulling together, working on the community, and helping those in need. Instead people resorting to pulling weapons on blue collar workers and trying to sue anyone they can.
Enjoy the hell you made. Just stop trying to make the rest of the US like you.
that's true, I shouldn't blame innocent Texans on it. It's the idiots who are threatening blue collar workers who are the worst right now. The ones who are more worried about themselves than everyone else.
Isn't the absentee part by design though? I'm pretty sure it was designed that way to minimize waste. The legislature only meets every other year for about 5 months, Seems like the absenteeism is a feature... I get it that it sucks during a natural disaster. See the meme above though.
People have been so amped up with undirected random anger against the system that it’s just spilling out in random directions against anything that looks like organized activity.
As soon as it can get harnessed and channeled against Democrats, it’ll turn into a hell of a big problem.
We are filled up with oppositional defiant puritan racists who believe in Calvinist predestination. Has been since the beginning and the delusions persist to this day.
A lot. Right now though, all of politics and capitalism and everything can be broken down into selfishness and greed. If you break all of our chemical soup brains together, all of our country's problems are root caused by those two issues. People are selfish, and they are greedy - and we have let those fester for way too long.
