What’s the point of modern amenities if we’re unable to use them? The heatwave in NYC is reaching extreme levels. The humidity levels are making it feel like 108 degrees outside, which is wreaking havoc on the Con ED power grid. My question is this: how is this fucking possible?
With a government sanctioned monopoly and free cash flow coming out the wazoo, this disgraceful company continues to cut corners and leave its paying residents exposed to problems readily deemed routine in the 19th century.
Consolidated Edison Inc. is asking New Yorkers to use fans instead of air conditioning as it struggles with electrical problems in several areas after demand reached a weekend record of 11,855 megawatts on Saturday.
The National Weather Service suggests ignoring the dangerous advice given by the fucking caitiffs at Con ED.
The National Weather Service, which put New York and other areas across the northeastern U.S. on an excessive-heat warning, has a different message.
“Use air conditioning to stay cool at home or go to a place that has air conditioning,” the weather service said in a warning to New Yorkers on its website. “Check on vulnerable friends, family members and neighbors.”
What’s the point of a greedy fucking monopoly ripping off its customers with absurd rates if they can’t even provide basic, life saving, service?
