Omg I just overheard one of my kid's teachers say that the power is down in Texas because their grid has so much wind and (omg) I *jumped into the Zoom* to say that was false and the gas plants r frozen too. 😬 Omg I couldn't resist, but my kid is NEVER going to forgive me. 🤭

To be fair: you can't really count on wind. But ERCOT also WASNT counting on wind much, assuming only ~6 GW would be available (currently theres 1.6 GW). They WERE counting on gas and coal plants (~70 GW of them), which have failed in a massive way: ~25-30 GW have been offline.
So the whole "this is why you can't depend on wind energy" narrative lasted about 6 hours.

While today’s terrible display of terror and meanness shakes us, let’s remember: @ossoff, Jewish son of an immigrant & @ReverendWarnock, first Black Senator from Georgia, will join a Catholic POTUS & the first woman, Black Indian VP in our nation’s capital. God bless America.

The scenes from the Capitol are utterly horrifying. Solidarity with those in 🇺🇸 on the side of democracy and the peaceful and constitutional transfer of power. Shame on those who have incited this attack on democracy.
