    Damn renewable energy! Thank god dynamic pricing will keep energy companies going, those 10k dollar bills for one week after the grid mostly fails because they declined to winterize their infrstructure blessedly help repair the grid! (Or some shit, what are we going with on this again?)

    Hope you all have automatic withdrawala on your accounts still, suckers. /s

      The Texas power grid doesn’t fail - it functions perfectly.

      The only issue with it is this weird misconception that it’s purpose is to deliver energy, rather than to transfer wealth upwards…
