@MHenderson77@gpro22@ninaturner I know at least a dozen people personally who would be more than happy to go into a pharmacy to get their monthly prescription of marijuana.
@kb_french @satokaheni @fireguy_bulldog@ninaturner Because corporations lobbied for them. They work their asses off convincing people that unions are bad, and that the removal of their rights as workers is beneficial because it saves them money that they can no longer bargain for as a collective.
@kelatzi@CeCeeRiggs@POTUS Since you're going to insist I'm still lying through my teeth anyways, because trying to reason with someone on this hellsite is like trying to perform a root canal on a rabid rottweiler, I'm just going to do what's best for me, block you, and try to move the fuck on.
@kelatzi@CeCeeRiggs@POTUS I HAVE been trying, and the fact that you're convinced I'm lying when I've actually lost sleep over this is appalling and distressing. You have no idea what I've been through, how every rejection, written or unwritten, has affected me and caused me undue stress c/ing my loans.
@kelatzi@CeCeeRiggs@POTUS $15/hr. Every place I have applied to has either ghosted me or decided to refuse me due to lack of experience outside of my degree. I'm a mathematics major. I'm working minimum wage in CA because the places I apply to want to maximize experience while minimizing wages.
@akaKozz_ @teesabunny@POTUS You liken Biden to Hitler, but who was it the actual literal neo-nazis in this country flocked to again, and saluted with a traditional nazi salute when he won the presidency in 2016?
Oh right, that was Trump, the self-appointed god-emperor of the MAGA movement.
@high_in_seattle@kristincredibl1@ninaturner Funnily enough this was more of a jab at the rich than it was the federal government. I would fight to disagree with you if I didn't think that some programs the more recent administrations have been throwing out (such as tax breaks for the rich) were a waste of taxpayer money.
@kelatzi@CeCeeRiggs@POTUS I haven't been able to get a high paying job with my degree. I surely do not make $250k a year. Do you know what $10,000 pays for, and inevitably will pay for? Less than one fifth of my student loans.
I was told a STEM degree would open up opportunities for a high paying job.
@davidhogg111 28, just about, and $50k. The rhetoric I was always told was that if you get a degree, you'll get better jobs. My experiences demonstrate that you better have been working three years before you started college otherwise you only have an expensive piece of paper.
@Kugelwilli@gildrak01@EvilToaster Fair, honestly, but regardless of our nomenclature, Autism $peaks wants people to not have autism AND not be autistic. Again: erasure over integration is their MO.
@jackpo773@Brcremer If the people who bash the gays and demand everything be traditionally Christian can use Leviticus as a source of "but muh bible says", I can use Deuteronomy.
@jackpo773@Brcremer This comment was more directed to the Christian subcommunity that goes on and on about how god is great and then immediately goes against everything the Bible tries to teach.
@grownupdan@FoxNews You say this as though people are being literally handed money by the feds for this program. They're not; they're having predatory loans forgiven in part. In fact it benefits Pell Grant recipients the most, who are given said grant on a need basis.
@jackpo773@Brcremer It's amazing how many times self-reported Christians immediately go to Leviticus to bash the gays but then completely ignore everything else in the Bible about being a decent human being to one another
@jackpo773@Brcremer Deuteronomy 15:1-2 โAt the end of every seven years you shall grant a release. And this is the manner of the release: every creditor shall release what he has lent to his neighbor. He shall not exact it of his neighbor, his brother, because the Lord's release has been proclaimed.
@gildrak01@EvilToaster I have autism, and many of my friends have autism. Autism $peaks does not speak for us. They strive towards erasure, not acceptance and inclusion. And it annoys me to no end that people still listen to them over the testimonies of actual autistic people.
@DineshDSouza Says the convicted felon who was released by a crooked president who has defaulted on more loans than any college student. Fuck off back to your prison cell.
@rewritingurmind@NickGibbons@DineshDSouza I love how every person who puts "Jesus is King" acts as though Jesus in the Bible wasn't portrayed as an unbiased humanitarian who would treat all people with dignity, respect, and compassion.
You know. A decent human being who also happened to be the son of God or God Himself.
