The pressure to repay debts is forcing poor nations to continue investing in fossil fuel projects to make their repayments on what are usually loans from richer nations and financial institutions, according to new analysis from the anti-debt campaigners Debt Justice and partners in affected countries. The group is calling for creditors to cancel all debts for countries facing crisis – and especially those linked to fossil fuel projects. “High debt levels are a major barrier to phasing out fossil fuels for many global south countries,” said Tess Woolfenden, a senior policy officer at Debt Justice. “Many countries are trapped exploiting fossil fuels to generate revenue to repay debt while, at the same time, fossil fuel projects often do not generate the revenues expected and can leave countries further indebted than when they started. This toxic trap must end.” According to the report, the debt owed by global south countries has increased by 150% since 2011 and 54 countries are in a debt crisis, having to spend five times more on repayments than on addressing the climate crisis.

The Supreme Court just violated the constitution by striking down the current and totally legal student debt relief plan. As Justice Kagan wrote of this disgusting act of overreach in her dissent: “In every respect, the Court today exceeds its proper, limited role in our Nation’s governance.”

...

Biden could have fought for student debtors, but what is clear is that he only reluctantly canceled student debt and did so in a half-hearted way. The cynical read is that he always wanted cancellation to fail and deliberately sabotaged it.

Once again, there are other perfectly legal ways to cancel student debt. But how these legal tools are used matters. Biden can use them in a way that shows he is really fighting for us, or he can do so in a half-hearted way that sets all of us up for another catastrophic failure.

...

Cancellation should have been a layup. It still can be. Biden needs to fight to win the rebound. All it takes is a signature.

State schools should be free. Community College should be free.

Student debt should not be public policy.

[Private schools will always have billions in endowments and charge $50,000 per year. ]

PLEASE DO NOT GIFT ME BADGES

Tumblr is getting rid of avatars and no longer showing where a reblog comes from in post headers to “afford more room for badges.”

I always felt kinda bad when I was gifted badges and then didn’t use them, cuz people spent actual money on them. So I’m asking, please do not gift me badges, or any other tumblr merch for that matter.

I threw them a bone last year and paid for the ad-free because the ads and blazed softcore porn on the app were infuriating, but I’m canceling it. They’re not getting anything from me anymore. I’ll have to switch back to using the Firefox mobile browser. Hopefully the new dash un-fuckers that are going around will work on mobile.

#for the record ‘running an experiment’ now means ‘this is how it’s going to be regardless of feedback’ #someone posted screenshots of responses from two different staff members #that were exact copies of each other #they were in response to separate feedback messages sent almost a month apart #one about the dash layout and one about the avatars #they’re lucky cuz staff never even graced me with a response to the long thought out civil message I’d sent them #maybe I was too civil #this is all the more reason for me to get rid of my iphone too #apparently apple makes it impossible for Firefox to run extensions on mobile browser #so idk if I can fix my dash #and if/when this update hits the app too AMD I cancel ad free it’ll be completely unusable #@staff #are you in so much debt that you’re intentionally trying to blow up the site? is that what’s going on? #because you know we’re a petty spiteful user base and won’t give you a dime if this goes on #so what’s the plan here? #tumblr update #dashboard update #badges
