Hmmm…
Power has been on and off in widely scattered parts of Lubbock all week. This is according to reports on Nextdoor and Facebook. The yokel media, as usual, are silent about it, just as they are silent about the disastrous 48 hour wait times at the local ER.
Here in Weatherford the stores are starting to remind me of the fucking Soviet Union with a variety of random goods suddenly unavailable. Random gas stations also have no fuel to sell. Friends still trapped in Lubbock tell me it is the same there.
Lubbock jumped aboard the sinking ship by joining the ERCOT power scam this spring, so the spotty grid there is no surprise and we know about the Trumpster-lemming saturated ERs, but what is going on with retail distribution?
