A friend in Houston says the power is out everywhere and the roads are totally jacked.

It’s a shame that Texas has just enough idiot voters to keep allowing Abbott and Cruz into office. You’d think they’d have learned by now, but nope.

No, Texas has more than enough registered voters with common sense to overcome these dipshits but the dipshits work really hard to keep them from voting.

I wonder if Doug Ford has any plans for Thursday?

With the Czar away, that leaves ‘T.D’ Patrick in charge, which is no improvement… & ‘T.D.’ promptly tried to score political points, re: response time, etc.
Asshole.
Oh, & I heard that Cancun Cruz is Whale Watching in So. Cal, but haven’t verified it.

Lost power Monday about 6 a.m. & will be surprised if it’s back up before Sunday.

Neighbor has a generator, got an extension cord running fans & the fridge. Got a gas range but it’s too fuckin hot to cook.

Not gonna post again until the power is back on.
FUCK typing on a phone.

ETA:
You can go to Whataburger’s website and go to the order page & the map will display the outages better than the power company’s site.

They will probably change their name, sooner than later.
