I wonder. A lawyer I know did the same thing. He’s a good lawyer. He’s perfectly capable of evaluating evidence and grasping cause and effect. MAGA was deemed more important than truth, than anything, really. So he would flat out lie, draw conclusions that were irrational. I pressed him on it hard one day and he said it was a matter of faith and that we were in a battle of good against evil.

Instructions in this news story. You aren’t alone. There is a hardship opt out form
And let AG Tong know. He’s already ticked off at them.
(I’m actually getting suspicious about this thing, that someone is making money somehow on this. )
People who never applied for hardship status could actually sue them for this, easy. Easy
No, the legislature did not give them that right. The opposite actually, when they passed the stupid dereg bill. You have a right to switch

Downvoted by someone but I agree with you. Since the party went full out rogue, actively shunning seems to be an appropriate response. When I think of some republicans I know, I have to say, I don’t flat out shun so much as keep some distance, and never fail to disapprove of every expressed hint of the kind of values that led to the insurrection. I never let them feel accepted when it’s in play. That’s maybe not shunning fully but it is targeted shunning.

This is good but the government needs far more help getting up the nerve to file indictments against the top echelon of this attempted coup, Trump et al. If in the end hundreds of his followers go to jail and none of them are even charged, I will have the worst belly ache.

Scary to think of a doctor falling for the logic and reasoning of the Trump putsch, especially a dr from a top, nationally ranked hospital.

Norwalk probably participates in the junior football league - maybe contact them or their main office to find out? I think it’s called something like Youth football and cheer.
There has got to be a team for her somewhere around here

They still have to maintain them under a lease, (or not) but we’d be paid rent for them. And munis could fine them. Since they are showing their weakness, take from them

Reply to comment by yodamonkey1 in Wholesale price of gas paid by power plants by buried_lede
I’m half kidding, but otherwise, Hm. We know all that, we know a lot of that needs to be checked and we know we need to know a lot more about power pricing in this state and ISO than we do. There was a study that concluded a few years ago that prices in this ISO could not be entirely explained by the reasons we’ve been given for years. You know at least one of the companies that owns a power plant in CT has pipeline and natural gas interests too, it’s a subsidiary. There is a lot more to know.

How much pure speculation do you think is involved in some of those futures prices?
What if we called their bluff? Is New England a big enough market to ripple back to the well head and get a redo?
It works when there is a Covid lock down in China and factories slow down. If there is a good amount of pure speculative bullshit in the prices, there is a certain amount of wiggle room. Why can’t we squeeze their margins?
(They’re probably trading their own futures. Shell Oil does that- it has a large energy trading unit)

But did you click on the link I just responded with? The wholesale price at city gate was 14, but power plants were paying 8. That’s a Connecticut price chart. I don’t get it, do you?

Ok, skimmed one of the Alg futures lists. The power plants won’t be paying that, fyi, but I want to look at those some more.

Look at this one where the city gate price is $14+and the price for power plants is $8+
I’ll look for another data set

The chart I linked is problematic. I noticed it is focused on the summer months when peak power is an issue in most places. I’ll look for other data.
I kind of doubt it is the highest wholesale price in the country tho. Anyway, I’ll look for the data.
