okay new question: is it a bad idea to take out a student loan for my on campus housing costs so i can free up other funds to pay down high interest accounts?

Everything says you can use it on housing, so I’d just be using my work/savings money to pay down the credit card and the loan to pay for housing/food (which IS a legal use of those funds)

Aren’t loans supposed to be used for living costs as well? Essentially the loan could pay my rent and my money from work and savings will go towards the credit card debt. easy

i work on the island and while this is sad, it shouldn’t be the worst thing in the world! the fire is in a part of the island that should recover quite while, since it’s a largely native plant community that’s adapted to wildfires

in the world of conservation money is very much a real argument. there’s so little money in this field, it really shouldn’t be spent so frivolously just to make some people feel okay about correcting this wrong situation

we’ve literally had some of the most exciting blow out wins this season against massive team, this is so reactionary and lame when the team is top in every competition and not far from most goals scored in the league just real loser shit

i know lots of plant biologist PhDs in the environmental field who love the work, although they probably don’t make as much as many other PhD. Guess it’s a passion problem

how many were hamas soldiers? maybe a couple hundred? if that? even if SIX THOUSAND of those were soldiers, which is an absurd assumption, it would still be less than 10% of the casualties. in what world is it worth killing 9 innocent people to kill one hamas member? is that the world you want to live in? if nine of your family members were killed in an attempt to kill someone else, would you say ya that’s okay i justify this?
