Meanwhile, my country just killed all renewable energy support while encouraging more fosil fuel usage and exploration into up to now protected lands and seas.

And that isn't even the worst of it.

That’s awesome, the stability part.

Growing up, I remember being told to stop using the air conditioner during the day by the city. And, in extreme cases, rolling blackouts that lasted for minutes at a time just to shut off unused appliances.

Yeah, I remember when they did that where I lived, how there was a "strange accident" every day at 4 pm that would last for 30 minutes. Every AC was forced off, etc.

It was the darnedest thing too, the part of town the wealthy and power board members lived in never had this issue. So weird.
