  1. always loved Serena. glad she didnt feel the need to do anything drastic to her appearance.
  2. The VPP stuff is fascinating to me. It seems like it makes a lot of sense so of course we wont do it. Open in app or online House Call: An Opportunity to Improve Grid Reliability in Texas The Texas House has a chance to make a major difference in the next two weeks Here's some more info on VPPs What Are Virtual Power Plants (VPPs)? Distributed energy resources (DERs) such as electric vehicles, smart thermostats, solar photovoltaic panels, heat pumps, and battery energy storage systems are seeing record-setting levels of investment and adoption. And their fast-growing strength in numbers can do even more if they work together. VPPs are a ‘missing link’ that unlocks the full potential of DERs. How Do VPPs Work? A VPP is a grid-integrated aggregation of many individual DERs. The many DERs of any given VPP act as a coordinated unit as if they were a single, larger power plant. VPPs bring together the devices in people’s homes and businesses to provide valuable services to the electricity grid, and in turn compensate consumers for those services provided. For example, a distributed ‘fleet’ of thermostats, batteries, and EVs might all work together to shift their demand to reduce peak grid load during a summer heat wave. What Value Do They Deliver? VPPs make the grid more reliable and resilient to extreme weather, lower energy costs, enable economy-wide electrification, and help integrate more clean energy that reduces air pollution and its negative health impacts. The time is now to scale the market for virtual power plants.
  3. My parents in Axtell had some over the road flooding. 1.5 inches in my area. It was great. No threat of wind or hail. Just a pleasant rain. Close to 4 inches so far in May.
  4. I've always wondered how women can see the GOP platform and agree with it. But this makes it easier to understand. This woman is a generational buffoon.

  7. Yep. Much better book imo. Bad Luck and Trouble.
  8. That's on us, and we feel terrible about it. Everyone to a tree is disappointed. If we're ever given another chance, we won't miss.
  9. Nobody calls him hot wheels because he's in a wheel chair. They call him hot wheels because he's a fucking cunt.

  12. I'd expect Tom to have a good year or two and then bolt.
