Friday, residents in the eastern German state of Saxony were told by their housing association that they could take hot showers only between 4 a.m. and 8 a.m., 11 a.m. and 1 p.m., and 5 p.m. and 9 p.m. each day,.... the Financial Times reported.

As the German Green Euro-weenies go, so will the U.S.A Green-weenies take our nation. These useful idiots can all take a wild leap off the Santa Monica Pier in pursuit of the Mother-ship. It is Hell’s Gate, not Heaven’s Gate, dummies.

I could just see some scum bag, calling and saying, you were taking a hot shower at 7 PM. Guy says, no, I was washing the dishes. 😀🤗

I’m on a frugal-living discussion group online. Around March, posts started showing up from people in Germany, asking for advice on how to prepare meals without an oven, stove, or other appliances. Energy prices were climbing so fast, a lot of people couldn’t afford to cook anymore.
I wondered how long it would take for the media to mention what was happening over there.
Everyone who can, make sure you have a backup plan ready, for when that happens here!

Germany has since been able to reduce that number to 35%
They should be able to get that down pretty quickly to 0% once Russia turns off the taps because Lithuania is still being stroppy!

The Germans will probably just shrug and get on with it like they usually do; the newer arrivals however may not be so acquiescent?

The irony is that even as EU reverts to coal, they continue to lock down gas reserves all over Europe and refuse to allow drilling. The situation all may change now that the EU has designated gas as a “green” fuel, and Germany is considering to defer closing their remaining nuclear plants.
To: grundle
Yep. Continue to sacrifice to Gaia....and take cold showers in the dark and shiver in the dark during winter and sweat like a pig in the dark in the Summer
OR
Live like modern people in the 21st century and have a modern functioning economy.
Your choice Germans.

turn off traffic lights at night, stop illuminating historic buildings, If cities turned off street and other outdoor lighting after 10 pm, it would cut way down on the gun violence.

I wonder how much extra energy all those millions of “refugees” are using.
