      Had a series of brownouts in NW Oregon due to a huge windy rain storm last night - They started happening right as I was talking about how storms make me think about the potential for power loss now and how I want to get a generator someday...

        Got you covered with this one, I deployed my beard in a giant curtain to slow it down.

        Jokes aside, same storm and she was pretty fierce.

          Thanks - I thought I could rely on Portlanders' faces to break the storm, but it turns out they've mostly moved onto ironic mustaches at this point 😛

          It's tough loving the ambiance of heavy rain battering against the roof and windows, while also knowing that there's a good chance it will make a lot more work for me if it manages to cause a power outage...

              GA is far to ass-backward (or crooked, or both) to allow something like solar or wind to infringe on GA Power's profits...

              Wind kills birds and solar uses too much land that could used for agriculture, but isn't. :sarcasm:

              It's actually more like "dirty politics kills any chance to progress as a state, but it's ok, because we politicians get dirty $$$$$$$$$$ from dirty businesses and churches, so our finances are fine.... "

              I just love being from the state that is tied with Mississippi for last in every possible category.... <--- sarcasm supreme.

                You're only a few categories away for Mississippians to start saying, "Well... at least this isn't Georgia."

                                  @coliver @gjacobse because it takes a swing at marketers.... which have become far too important around SW. They won't let folks air grievances about their main revenue source. That link was 404 within 10 minutes of being posted, because calling marketers manipulative, while true, threatens SW's income.
