How long are we going to keep doing this?

Genuinely. Seriously how long. This is question for workers and capitalists alike, how long? How long are we going to allow people to sleep on the streets How long are we going to work until we die for some old guys Profits? How long until we protect our kids from this system and future generations? How long until we decide to save our planet from oil oligarchs? How long until we demand access to healthcare and education or we don’t provide our labor anymore? How long until actual give enough of a fuck about ourselves and our families until we stand up for them? Not a rhetorical question. Also, queue the “WELL WHATUR U DOIN ABOUT IT 🤡🤪🤡🤪🤡” comments.

If someone doesn’t have a degree or don’t have one that matches the field they want to go into, can they just claim to have one from a university that has closed down?

Here is a list of universities that have closed down since 2020 due to financial problems. How could someone get caught if they claimed to have graduated from one of these universities?

Big name and highly prestigious ones like Harvard, Stanford, Cornell, etc. have actually seen more applicants, lower acceptance rates and more donations.

Hybrid role turns out to be really just an office role

Wanting more so of a rant than anything cause well kinda stuck here in the meanwhile. After 3 stages with this place lots of questions asked on my part. Thought I would be starting an hybrid role sure mostly in office a they hinted but with the possibility to work from home on top. Job description had also sold the hybrid part and how it as a part of their culture and way. I ask again when starting to try get an idea of when it will kick in and basically told 1.not rlly till 6 months. It's a year contract btw 2.likely really only for when training courses I don't get why I would've been misled like this. Feel almost stupid for not digging deeper especially since my last role had pulled similar fake hybrid shenanigans. But even with that I has more opportunities on the surface to wfh.…

I understand that canceling student debt is a big debate, but can we at least agree to cancel interest on student debt, and allow interest paid to go to principal?
