Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.

As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.

Thank you and happy chatting!

Northern California is a straight clusterfuck right now, and I'm in a relatively rural area so it might be awhile before I get my power back. What do yinz do to pass the time aside from doomscroll and shitpost?

Edit: Just to give you all an idea about how bad it is right now. Rual Northern California towns are much smaller than a lot of people think, so a lot of those outages are entire towns.

I cannot stress enough how dark it is here right now. I still have 5g because I'm close to the hospital but aside from that, the blackout is going for literal miles in every direction from me.

Look at the stars, might be your only chance to see them

Can't see them through all the clouds. But also I'm 45 minutes from being at like 7k feet in the Sierras and miles away from another human so I see the stars all the time.
