I consolidated my student loans directly with the Dept. of Ed in 2023. Then limbo with the SAVE repayment court case.
This morning I got an email from the Dept of Ed that my loans are in default. When I log in, my consolidated loan=good standing + now all the old loans are there in default.

Listen to me very fucking carefully:

We need you. We fucking need __you__

There's no one else who can replace you in this fight — and it is a fight. And if you aren't fucking here anymore? That means you cannot contribute, we cannot replace you and we fucking need you.
