COVID-19 vaccine discussion
I've had the same issues for the past few weeks. I've just decided to wait, hoping there will be a vaccine glut in April/May. My anti-infection protocol has worked for the past year, so I'm good for the next few months. And, my protocol only gets better with time, because each person getting vaccinated now is one less person that I can catch the virus from.

Download the ERCOT app from Google Play or Apple AppStore to track the grid in real time. It also will send notifications when the Emergency stages change. Their App works better than their grid.

Just watched the FB Live press conference with Austin city management/mayor. SUMMARY: Special thanks to everyone working so hard to resolve all these issues. Unprecedented. The extended team are leveraging cross organizational synergies to formalize and coordinate dependencies. ERCOT bad. If you have power, reduce your thermostat. Everyone is working extremely hard on the synergistic coordination. Unprecedented. Several task forces have been formed and will schedule planning sessions soon. They are looking forward to coordinate the synergistic dependencies. ERCOT bad. They also want to thank the first responders and everyone else that are working so hard on these issues. If you have power, reduce your thermostat. We are all in this together - and we need to drive the synergy development process. Unprecedented. Again, please donate money to charities, because we are all in this together. Again, special thanks to the people working to solve these problems. ERCOT bad. If you have power, reduce your thermostat.

Robinhood is a private company. They can de-platform any stock they want. If the Redditors don't like it, they can build their own trading platform.
