New POLITICO report: Trump admin is “exploring options to sell parts of the government’s $1.6T student loan portfolio to the private market.”

We're announcing our willingness to purchase the portfolio for its market value. We will then subsequently cancel the debt.

Can I just say I hate this system so much. I've wasted full days of work crafting tailored applications for things that went to internal hires and have even interviewed for posts that went to the internal hires. Just let places give that person job security and dont waste the time of 200 applicants

Ok, ill leave your comments up to warn others. I have had the rug pulled out from under me in similar situations several times

*shrug* could be, but so few places that are not nightmares to live in are hiring at all and I'm not a vertebrate worker so I may have missed earlier ads

Don't worry John(H. sapiens) those aren't sandworms, they are just bryozoans (PRI108377). Please make the #JohnOliverCoprolitasticShed a reality and #savePRI 🧪

Of all the people who have donated or raised awareness for similar causes, he seemed most likely to respond to internet nonsense. Help from anyone would be appreciated, it is a time sensitive situation. Also I was able to give him a shark plush with a note attached after a stand up show.

😊 thanks

#fossilfriday The beautiful skull of the dwarf baleen whale Herpetocetus bramblei (Cetotheriidae) I discovered and excavated as an undergrad from the 5-6 myo Purisima Formation near Santa Cruz, California. Now in @ucmpberkeley.bsky.social collections!

#FossilFriday An unused view of the bizarre tooth-whorl of the Permian cartilaginous fish Helicoprion taken for ‘Fossils. The Essential Guide’.

This plate of crinoids is from Crawfordsville, Indiana. The Mississippian aged Edwardsville Fm. has tremendous density and diversity. There are over 85 crinoid species found here, often tangled together.
