"If you really lived during the Cretaceous Period, you’d be fortunate. The period we live in now is far more frightening. Right now, species on Earth are going extinct far faster than during the late Cretaceous. Now is truly the age of mass extinctions! So, my child, what you’re seeing is nothing. This is only an insignificant episode in a much vaster process." - The Three Body Problem

It's called rhetoric. It's just a slow burn into making Americans think and slowly be convinced that maybe women have too many rights or privileges then you can make laws that reverse those rights

Options for school ? (lemmy.world)
 

I'm a second year Penn State student. The college gave me money to go to an alternative campus. Because of federal loans I was able to afford it. however I was not applicable for the PLUS loan because of credit score. I transferred my campus to Penn State since those are the classes I need for Nuclear engineering and the cost after pell grant and subsidized/unsubsidized loans is $20k per semester. What can I say to my mom to convince her that it's not worth it. She always talks about the book 'rich dad poor dad' as a reason for why it's okay to take that much money? Besides scholarships I would have to take a loan and I'll be fucked if I do. What options do I have?
