       ERCOT is saying they may do rolling power outages this evening. The Texas power grid is absolute garbage. It's not even close to the hottest day or even series of days we've had lately.

       All this sun and the grid can't provide enough power because they insist on using too much wind. We should have fields and fields of solar panels omg.

       @tehjessica or build Thorium reactors for power. Cleaner, less environmentally destructive, and you don't have to worry about maintaining thousands of panels to generate a fraction of the power.

       @chillanarchist01 doing something effective would be great for sure.

       @tehjessica Which is why it'll never happen.
