Yeah. ‘Suicide plug’ Is a misnomer. Should be ‘homicide plug.’
The danger isn’t plugging both ends into the same circuit. The danger is when there’s a downed power line, somebody plugs a generator into their outlet to power their own house. The genny backfills the line, so this line that everybody thinks is dead is suddenly live. All of a sudden the poor lineman who is trying to fix it a mile downline gets electrocuted while standing on top of a 30’ ladder.

Cows have excellent taste in music.
Not that bad, which is strange for this time of year. Usually I’d be working 'round the clock, but my industry is in a slump, so I have some free time. Hanging out with my partner, cooking, cleaning, played a hot second of video games last week. Hoping to have time to jump back into reading Stormlight Archive, but that’s one hell of an investment.
Thanks for asking, stranger. How’s life by you?
