Ryan @ryanwithcupcake.bsky.social · 06/08/2026I liken it to having chickens. No one would expect to be able to show up at their grocery store and sell their extra eggs to them at retail prices. 1330
Nick Messick @messick.bsky.social · 06/08/2026To extend the metaphor further: The reason you have extra eggs this time applies to everyone else with chickens. So if you are trying to sell your eggs to the store, you won't even get into the parking lot because everyone else in town is also trying to sell their extra eggs at the same time. 1120
Nick Messick @messick.bsky.social · 06/08/2026And if this "egg selling" is happening in California, you can go to this website to see how many eggs the store is already just throwing into the trash (curtailment) because that "reason" for the extra eggs even applies to the grocery store itself: www.caiso.com/todays-outlookcaiso.com Today's Outlook | California ISOMonitor real-time grid conditions.
