Much of the US, even Texas uses natural gas for heating. Houses in much of the southern US aren’t designed for cold weather so people add space heaters. Plus if I remember correctly the cold shut down the natural gas providers in Texas so that wasn’t even working.

In yesterday’s America too. Look at the Battle of Blair Mountain for instance where corporations have run the show for centuries.

It’s also a bit weird that this is politically relevant in the US. I honestly don’t understand how my need for healthcare is a political stance.

This was the expected outcome. There are no consequences for the wealthy and affluent in the US, only for the poor. Look at the 2008 financial collapse, there wasn’t any real jail time for any of those involved but we can’t even begin to cover the number of suicides their actions caused.

I completely agree. I don’t have autism, it’s not a disease, it’s part of who I am like my ethnicity. I am so fucking tired of having to conform to what neurotypicals think I should be.

All workers really.

When the extremely wealthy hold the economy hostage it’s the “invisible hand of the free market” and when labor holds the economy hostage they’re selfish and greedy free loaders. Really sad how that happens.

Kinda. It might be 3rd parties using it but it is 100% an API designed by Google to keep apps on Google Play.

I’m not sure it was the designers but the executives. Touchscreens are insanely cheap compared to buttons and all the wiring involved. Like the main reason that Tesla does everything on a touch screen is that software is soooo much cheaper than hardware.
