Thanks.

Every few years or so it gets that hot. When it got that hot as a kid we'd go to the beach or the water park. Now, I'd probably just sit in my basement and crank the fan. It'd still be hot, but its not like my house would implode.

So you're saying you have to hide from it? And it's only a few days and not months on end?

Dont move goal posts. A week without power in freezing temps is enough to kill you. You have power when it gets that hot and lasts what? 2-3 days max?

Edit: FYI I'm from NH where we get some pretty fucked up weather on both sides. I live in Vegas now and dont have to deal with the snow but I know damn well what I'm talking about.

Are you saying I should take responsibility for Texas cutting corners on its infrastructure? Would that make you feel better? Seems like you're aiming your anger at the wrong direction here.

Are the citizens who are suffering supposed to take responsibility? You're moving goal posts to be a jerk and you know it. Dont trivialize a life threatening situation.

The citizens turned a blind eye to a very obvious problem. Why didn't they speak up before this? Surely this isnt the only time its snowed in Texas.

Dude, just stfu. You know what you're doing and it's a serious matter. It would be like if your mom got cancer and people laughed at her for being bald after chemo.

Its not funny to make fun of people who are in a life threatening situation. The citizens couldnt do anything about it.

My mom did get cancer. She died before she went bald.

Back on topic, there's no way the people of Texas could've been kept completely in the dark about their shoddy infrastructure. They could have elected individuals who could have made the proper changes to prevent these issues before it was too late.

I only hope now they'll be willing to step forward and do the right thing and prepare for the next time something like this happens.

Yeah, it's not the cold persay that's going to kill Texans, but the cold + zero power...literally almost everywhere, and no water.

So yeah, it's literally like 35 degrees in my bedroom, which with Houston humidity equates to a "true feel" of below freezing and we're having to hide under our covers to keep from freezing to death.

All hotels are booked. All of my friends are in the same situation as us. There's literally miles of suburbs that have been powerless almost completely for close to two days now.

Honestly, the past few days have been worse than Covid or any hurricane I've ever seen. Texas is basically shittier than a 3rd world country rn.

But yeah, I'm sure Canada totally has millions of 48hr+ blackouts that affect almost entire cities in the middle of winter storms...

FYI 110 F is an extreme outlier in Texas, it'd be like 45ish in Toronto.

Toronto regularly gets to like 100-102 F every summer.

And there's nothing wrong with criticizing your country, but normal people don't typically look at a situation where people are freezing to death and their only take is "lol that's baby shit"
