If we cancel all student debt, ppl will want medical debt forgiven. If we cancel medical debt, they're going to want free healthcare. If we give them that, they'll want us to house the homeless. Then everyone's going to want a living wage. The whole society will fall apart.

The average amount of debt forgiveness to businesses receiving PPP loans: $95,700. If we could afford to cancel hundreds of billions in PPP loans to business owners in their time of need, please do not tell me we can't afford to cancel all student debt for 45 million Americans.

And I’m the one who’s offended by everything

@headmanifesting @javroar thought this was a joke. how have i never noticed pink? i feel like we didn’t have that one.

@AliceFromQueens why would you mute someone you don’t want to see anymore? why not unfollow?

I used to get sad when ppl unfollowed me. Then I realized there's a type, the Unfollower, who loves to press that button. (Mute button won't do!) So why begrudge them their pleasure?

@4HumanUnity @FoxNews @seanhannity the US and state governments increase the cost at the pump through taxes. its not just global prices.

@FoxNews @seanhannity 1st gas prices are based on GLOBAL OIL prices & you know that. 2nd u are comparing the current prices to 2020 in the middle of pandemic and lock down is very disingenuous. Oil actually dropped to negative $$$ and you know that. Biden is doing all to help, u do all 2 block.

MEAN GREEN MACHINE: @seanhannity blasts Dems for shrugging off spiking gas prices as Americans struggle to make ends meet.

I think if this happened to me I would lose all faith in humanity for the rest of my life

In 1965 min wage was $1.25. (that's $11.58 today) It would have taken about 6 weeks of work to pay tuition in 1965. UD tuition+fees are $7,705/semester Today's minimum wage is $7.25 & ~26 weeks working full time to cover one semester

@Moctezuma_III I think every town should have one of these.

Workers from the Department of Sanitation, accompanied by NYPD, cleared out the belongings of several homeless New Yorkers under the Brooklyn Queens Expressway in Williamsburg this morning

@HYPNOGO glad youre safe

all the "just take the bus" people are reminding me of how when I was in college, I was denied a job after the interviewer asked increasingly specific questions aimed at determining if I could work without relying on our local bus system

I know the vodka boycott is silly but come on

@billynomates___ i do too. i cant pass one without looking

@higibby It’s for old liberals to throw their terrible books away without feeling guilty

Trying to work outside

@billynomates___ i’m almost always disappointed by the selection, but i never put books into them so i guess im part of the problem

@higibby Lenin would never read books from one of those. They’re all filled with Who Moved my Cheese and Joyce Carol Oates and shit like that

@JortsTheCat The people at the US Department of Labor help line are very helpful with these sorts of questions. 1-866-487-2365 For real, I've called them and said, is [thing I've been told to do] legal? And a nice lady said, nope, sure isn't, do you need a formal statement?
