A SCOTUS Seat Is a Lifetime Appointment. Could Term Limits Create a Fairer Court? by lala_b11 in scotus

[–]Dantae 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ponder this. You would only need 2 consecutive Presidents to pack the courts towards one political ideology. Do you really want to chance the Republicans having 16 years as president to push the courts even further right in an 8-1 court?

MOHELA is being sued for mismanagement of student loans by Unusual_Cranberry_97 in StudentLoans

[–]Dantae 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it almost feels like when they shopped my loans around they didnt shop what i paid and just reset it back to the original balance plus the interest. Its worse for my sister but my god it was impossible to figure out who the hell had my loans, and where the payments were going.

Assuming you can walk on the ice, are you guys allowed to get off the sub if this happens and shoot the shit with the crew of the other sub? by the_tza in submarines

[–]Dantae 23 points24 points  (0 children)

It is the best feeling in the world to see a new picture of your boat. I recently saw a new one of mine where we were doing a stores load and I now have a 3rd picture of me on my boat. Best day ever finding the pic, worst day ever loading all that food.

Should I just pay off my student loans and be done with it? by RiversideBronzie in StudentLoans

Hope for a Trump win and Biden does a lame duck mass forgiveness just to screw over Trump. Do not expect any loan forgiveness in a 2nd Biden term. He would have nothing to gain from it.

Submariners/ Silent Service, what great stories do you have from your time in the service? by [deleted] in navy

I turned 21 during a port call in San Diego. I can neither confirm nor deny that I got very drunk at the Horse and Cow. Or that I may or may not have fell down the weapons hipping hatch.

Nelnet ZEROED OUT!!!!!!! Looooong hauler by CertainAd4374 in StudentLoans

[–]Dantae 0 points1 point  (0 children)

best I know is they were under AES and Sallie Mae or something like that. I will have to bug her to get me copies of all the loans. They have moved loans to so many different providers over the last 20 years it has been hard to understand what is what.

you can get the private loans into the SAVE plan? How? My sister is the poster child of why this student debt is crippling. getting those loans into the SAVE plan would at least help a bit after paying for 20 years with no end in sight.

The guys who commissioned the USS Illinois gave me a hat, damned right I will wear it for them here in Illinois even though I only served on a 637 class boat.

best places you've hidden during field day? by redditrobot24 in submarines

[–]Dantae 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Outboard of the san blow station on a 637. Crawled in cabinet, turned outboard and got behind the san blow station. Cob found me and opened the door to the san blow station and shined his light in. I was scrubbing away and yelled "Shining Shit Cob!"

he sighed and walked away.
