Happy International Women's
Day 2021! At first I thought this was to celebrate international women like
Gal Gadot and Sofia Vergara. It turns out to be an international celebration of
all women with a focus on fighting gender bias. With all due respect to Gal and
Sofia, that's probably for the best. They get enough attention every day as it
is.

Texas Won't Reduce $16 Billion In Electricity Charges From Winter Storm
The word Friendship was adopted as the Texas state motto by the Forty-first Texas Legislature in February 1930.
A decade of low cost power savings wiped out in 32 hours. Crazy. You didn't get hit did you? BoP? Someone else lives in TX, I forget.
As for those that did i remind them of this oldie but goodie "if it sounds too good to be true it probably is."
Waiting for the inevitable comment from politicians: "Texans would rather pay a $10,000 power bill than have the Federal Government messing in their electricity."I would expect the AG to say those exact words.
We already know that Texas elderly would rather die than see the economy harmed by lifesaving pandemic measures.
They really need to put whoever is in charge of AriZona iced tea in control of inflation...
