The particulars have already been spoken to, but I would wager that close to a majority of the businesses owned outside of the City of Philadelphia in SE Pennsylvania are incorporated in Delaware.

Its not just losing, its the fact that there was a sharp contract between our propaganda about the war and the actual facts about it. You get told its to protect our freedom but then you come home and no one really gives a poo poo and oh yeah btw we made up all that poo poo about WMDs. You saw a similar thing after Vietnam, where there is a lot of anti government resentment in vets some of which gets channeled into white supremacy. I mean the same thing happened in ww1 Germany. They told their troops they were winning and then from the point of view of the enlisted they just surrender out of nowhere.

Acebuckeye13 posted:Noted Piece of poo poo Rush Limbaugh, known to many as "That motherfucker," was dragged into the depths of hell this morning after a long battle with the forces of decency and literacy. A man so racist and lacking in character that even the National Football League denied him his plantation-owner fantasies, Limbaugh's broadcast talents were rivaled only by Lord Haw-Haw and perhaps even Goebbels himself. As per his will, Limbaugh's casket is to be lined with radioactive isotopes and his grave regularly sprayed with DDT, to ensure that he may continue poisoning the earth long after ceasing to poison the airwaves. He will be missed only by those who he mislead, and cursed to damnation for many years to come. This is a pretty good eulogy is it original

Tweetstorm from a public works director in Alvin, Texas, a suburb of Houston. https://twitter.com/TheHoboBoss/status/1361888203502936066 quote:So for many without power in Texas and that are now without water, let me break it down for you. ERCOT just up and shut down the power for most of Texas. They did this with NO, NONE, ZERO discussion with your local government. We (local govt) were prepared...we had generators. We had fuel. We tested the generators, double checked our supply lines. ERCOT literally just flipped the switch. Zero consideration for hospitals and other facilities in the area, no communications.

Defenestrategy posted:Yea, I'm not sure how this poo poo even happens. My general understanding is that most pipe infrastructure in the country is buried between 4-5 feet underground, below any potential freeze line, in any climate with freeze/thaw potential. Texas buries their lines to about a foot, partly because under that first foot is a shitload of limestone. Most utilities house their equipment indoors because of that freeze/thaw potential, Texas puts all their poo poo outdoors so it cools off faster in the summertime. Their entire system is built for summer. Now you can mitigate that risk with winterization, stores of natural gas/oil, and connecting yourself to other grids. Most of Texas did none of that because it costs money and/or stops you from owning the libs. El Paso has been fine in all of this because they put in the money since 2011, are connected to the national grid, and just generally have their poo poo together. Texas, being a one-party Republican state that loves to gently caress with the blue cities, basically decided that it was more important to own the libs than to prepare for 5/10 year disasters.
