I'm so sick and tired of libs demanding that students juggle scholarship applications, working, studying, and fucking starving in order to get through college.

Y'know what? I don't think students should have to fucking work during school and it is fcked up that we've normalized grinding people into dust in order to achieve an education.

Oh, and fuck you if you have a learning disability and can't do both school and work. Guess it's poverty for you, buddy.

        My parents actually had a college fund for me that was enough that I only had to work summers, like in the boomer myths of old, though this was over a decade ago. That said I went to a pretty cheap local college.

        my parents insisted I take loans and focus on school. I ended up working on campus for professors later in college but that was functionally part of my education. was immiserated for a long while after graduating until a good chunk got forgiven when my mom became completely disabled (they were technically in her name). not sure this is a smart path to go down - I really lucked out. loan payments on 100k+ was more than my rent because they were using my mom's income to calculate the payments.
