... right. Because republicans control Texas and the grid. A grid that already killed people a couple years ago. A grid that people aren't convinced the republican leadership has fixed. A grid that's being heavily used under this heatwave. That just makes sense to me.
What else would you expect in the comments? I expect talk about climate change, the grid, and how republicans have fucked up both of those things. I don't expect people to be saying, "Sure is a scorcher today!", Or casual chats about lemonade recipes. Those days are gone.
