Nerf Now!! 2479
My old street used to have blackouts all the time, mostly because it was a shitty street in a poor region and thus probably received fewer resources when it comes to maintenance.
My new street, however, is one a fancier hood, with lots of trees.
The trees are so nice we aren't allowed to cut them and thus they grow and grow and eventually their branches break the power lines.
Technically some preventive pruning is allowed but between the responsible parties tardiness and the occasional rain and wind, this means I gotta to experience more power failures.
Thus today's comic.
