Tongue cancer upended my life. Clawing it back (with half of a tongue). Marketing analysis by day, Seattle sports (Sounders, Reign), travel and pop culture keeps me occupied. Dual citizen (🇺🇸🇨🇦) in my WA bubble.

I thought we didn’t need a Department of Education 🤔 New proposed law: no one that didn’t need student loans for college should be in charge of collecting or deciding the rules (and consequences) for them
BREAKING: Education Department says it will begin collection on student loans for over 5 million borrowers in default.
Student loans in default to be referred to debt collection, Education Department says
The Education Department will begin collection next month on student loans that are in default, including the garnishing of wages for potentially millions of borrowers, officials said Monday.

“Millions will die due to preventable and treatable disease.” I don’t know why this is shocking. They’ve never cared about a single person living at or below the poverty line in the US. No problems ignoring preventable death here (black women’s maternal mortality rate anyone?) Who is surprised here?
A new study models the impact of the implosion of U.S.-funded disease treatment and prevention in the developing world — and suggests that Elon Musk and Marco Rubio will go down as among history’s greatest monsters if funding and effective administration are not restored.
