You either have an electric meter with a disk or disk emulator. This indicates how much kwh you're using at any time. Now leave everything powered up at the house alone for a couple of minutes. If the a/c is running leave it alone, the same for any other electric appliance. Now find your biggest ceiling fan and turn it off. Go to the meter and clock the disk from turn to turn, or the disk emulator from a small block being on, then off, then back on leaving any lights attached to the fan off. This is about the fan only, not some fan with 2 or 3 lights. Now turn the fan back on, the disk or disk emulator will barely speed up if it does at all. Fans barely show up on your meter and is probably the smallest user of electricity in your house.stipulated on ceiling fans, but every little bit counts.
So while America is being torn apart with blue cities crumbling with out of control crime, shit and needles all over the place at the tent cities that have been built while freaks take away womens rights and try to groom children. Every person who comes into this country illegally is just another law broken by your mentor brandon. You do talk a great game, I will give you that, but at the end of the day, you're just another brandon lemming following him over the cliff. My last post about ceiling fans, limiting beers to two a week, and your refusal to offer any opinion of yourself about late term abortions tells me you are that one of many lemmings, just following the company line, morals and values (if you have any) be damned.

i am personally opposed to abortion, but i don't think women should be locked up for getting one, safe or unsafe. safe abortion is better than unsafe (e.g., the coathanger technique for dilation and curretage.)
where i draw the line is when a fetus can survive outside the mother, excepting only rape, incest, a threat to the Mom's life, or discovery of massive fetal abnormality such as happens on Accutane, a horrible teratogen.
it's hilarious how the same states that are in favor of forced births do the least to help out a struggling single Mom; at least be consistent.
i have values. the Ten Commandments are a good place to start, and you can't go wrong with the golden rule.
i formulate my own opinions based on my experience, research and reason. if Biden happens to agree with me on a particular topic, great. if not, that's ok too. it just so happens that we mostly agree on what is optimal policy.
Blue cities like Houston should be empowered to solve their own problems, and not have the states or the feds micromanagering local issues. if they need state or fed help, they can ask for it. Abbott and the Texas Legislature should butt out of Houston's affairs.
so Portland permits tent cities for the homeless. that's their prerogative. what's your better solution for helping the chronically homeless become housed?
