I have a gas stove and it was the only thing that we had as a heat source during the 2021 Texas freeze and our power would be out for long stretches at a time (days).

We would purposefully limit its use for that, but goddamn we had on layers and were under blankets and goddamn it was cold. Fucking snowing outside. No water either. Then a boil water advisory so more stove use. Not a fun time, would not recommend.

Have you tried not living in a 3rd world country?

I would be happy to leave if it was 100% up to me, if that’s what you’re asking.

Not really, I don’t even know why I felt like teasing a random Texan. You sound nice, you should move to Oz.
