The worm overlords have infiltrated the US. Smiling Friends was right all along.

Ah yes, those yesterday Republicans advocating for stronger labor laws, stricter gun control, and securing abortion as a right for Americans. Man, those Republicans were so cool back in the day.

"There's an old saying in Tennessee — I know it's in Texas, probably in Tennessee — that says, fool me once, shame on — shame on you. Fool me — you can't get fooled again."

Sometimes, I miss Bushisms in comparison to Trumpisms.

Oh my G-d, I didn't even think of this. This makes so much sense. What an absolute buffoon.

This isn't surprising. Hulk Hogan is a huge racist.

ERCOT has to answer to not only their BoD, but the PUCT, and the Texas Congress. Anything they want to do, has to be approved. But nobody wants to raise funds to expand infrastructure by raising taxes, or rates. Not to mention, their regulator, PUCT, refuses to do jack as far as winterization and grid expansion. Also, the board of PUCT is only appointed by the Governor. This means that appointments change with new Governors which highlights the needs for a new Governor in Texas. Its funny that the Co-ops outside of ERCOT hardly experience any issues. The regulation that goes on is almost nonexistent because of PUCT and Texan Congress.

It's an actual nightmare to try get any design work done for them because of all of the meetings you have to have with PUCT and ERCOT. They are the worst to do contract work for and people hate working with them. T-Line design sucks for them and forget about Substation design.

It is an asinine system they have set up, and it seems they refuse to change. The growth of the market has been known for YEARS. This is not news. They're just making it news to place blame. What a bunch of idiots.

A kicker in American Football, who recently gave a speech at a Catholic College and said women will find more joy and fulfillment from being a stay at home mom than in a career.

insert shocked pikachu here I mean, is this really surprising? That place was a cesspool disguising as irony. But news flash, it stops being ironic after a certain amount of time.

It's a fantastic virtue signal. They can submit a bill, they know won't pass because of how obtuse and vague it is. They are wasting time for performative gestures to rile up their voter base.
