As long as it doesn't get as bad as last time where adults and children froze to death. A sarcastic joke now and then is ok in some situations. Especially since the Texas grid among others have yet to be fixed/weather proofed.
Somewhere Ted Cruz is boarding a flight for a Long weekend. >

Already wrote a speech to blame his kids that he left behind. >

“As you may know my family recently dealt with a harsh reality facing many Americans and as such I’ve decided I need a vacation from them over the holidays” >

It has to be a harsh reality knowing that your kids are becoming old enough to understand what a piece of shit their father is. >

His kid actually tried to end it all, so if that doesn't tell him how hated he is nothing will >

I saw his daughter’s “explanation” video on Tiktok, poor kid. She seems like a good kid though and pretty smart too so its good to see at least his kids turned out to be nothing like him. >

Poor thing. If anyone deserves to spend Christmas an entire country away from Ted Cruz, it's her >

ITT: People who cannot understand scale. Texas has 67000 customers without power. That is a large neighborhood in Dallas, Houston, or San Antonio. There is no threat to the grid at large (unlike last time where we were seconds from uncontrolled cascade failure on the first night of the storm), and most of the damage is either wind damage from tornado strength gusts or from people not knowing how to drive in the cold and taking out power poles.
Texas is fine. Sure, it sucks that 67000 out of 28 million customers are without power, but it's not a statewide outage that will take days to correct. Most power will be back up in a few hours and everything should be back up by tomorrow. >

ITT people who didn't read the article >


ITT

In every frickin' thread… >

You’re no Google, but what does ITT stand for in these threads? >

In This Thread. 
Happy to help. >

Are people misreading the headline? The 300,000 is acrosss multiple states. Looking at the chart in the article, Texas doesn't have any more outage than Georgia or Connecticut, albeit more than other states like NC or NY.
Like there's a lot of shit to hate on Texas for, but this particular article ain't it. >

The article singled out Texas specifically to get this kind of reaction. They knew what they were doing. People here saw "Texas" and "power outage" and immediately started falling over each other to post their own version of "Texas bad lol" in the comments like mouthbreating drones.
