    Me in Houston right now as CenterPoint Energy fails to restore our power.

    Run a generator? I mean, I assume that they’re gonna have it back in a few days at most.

      1. It’s been 3 days and they are staying it will be “several more days”
      2. I don’t have a generator.
      3. I don’t have money for a generator.
      4. There are no generators to buy, as they have already been bought.
      5. Even if I had one, it’s pretty hard to find any gas.
      6. Fuck you. It’s 105 out with heat advisories and 1.2 million people still don’t have power.
