I’d seen a lot of writing about living alone during the pandemic and I felt the weight of that. Now the power is out and there’s nothing - no sound, no light, not even heat. And I’m left only w/thoughts of a federal and state government that has failed us on every level.

To think that Houston, the energy capital, has a majority of citizens freezing in their homes (self-included) is bizarre. None of this is ok. And I’m using some of the battery I have left on my phone to say that I hope this radicalizes you.

Thanks for the well wishes y’all! I still have no power, but my friend @MCMVIII called to walk thru how to get body temp back up + some strategies for tonight. So all is well right now

The government still failed us though that has not changed one bit.
