i've been so fucked up for months i haven't been able to go downtown to pick up my work from last spring from my school's textile studio and they always have a cutoff date like if you don't pick up your old work by x date they toss it and they're pretty strict about that unless you arrange with the studio tech beforehand, and the studio tech doesn't like most people she's pretty curt with most students. not rude but just keeps things professional and a bit distant, a very serious person. but i know she grew to like me over the past few years/warmed up to me a lot and we'd chat a lot about different textile things and she would say really kind things to me a lot which felt rare and special, and she let me have special treatment with some of the equipment because she trusted me to use it properly. and i haven't seen her in nearly a year and i expected her to have tossed my work out when i didn't come to pick it up last fall and emailed her to explain why and dropped off the face of the earth, i made my peace with losing that work and accepted it, it is what it is, i will survive, etc.
but she emailed me earlier this week and said she didn't have the heart to toss my work and has kept it safe in her office for me if i'm ever able to come pick it up and if not she's going to keep it as an example piece to show other students when teaching weaving because it's too lovely to get rid of and my heart swelled like 10 times its size bc she didn't have to do that and it meant so much to me that even a year from seeing her last she was still thinking about me and being kind to me. and i emailed her back and picked it up today and saw her and we chatted for a bit and it was so nice. I love her I miss my school's textile studio and weaving in there and talking craft with her... sigh

It’s never been a better time to get rid of your student debt.
Although President Joe Biden’s plans to cancel up to $400 billion in student debt for tens of millions of Americans were foiled over the summer at the Supreme Court, his administration has explored all of its existing authority to leave people with less education debt.
As a result, more than 3.7 million Americans have received loan cancellation during Biden’s time in office, totaling $136.6 billion in aid.
In a recent exclusive interview with CNBC, Rep. James Clyburn, D-S.C., who has been a vocal advocate for student loan borrowers, said he’s heard from the U.S. Department of Education that every two months over the next four years, another 75,000 people will be eligible to have their debt forgiven due to changes in income-driven repayment plans and Public Service Loan Forgiveness.
-----
The Biden administration has been evaluating millions of borrowers’ loan accounts to see if they should have had their debt forgiven. So far, more than 930,000 people have benefited, receiving over $45 billion in debt cancelation.
Most people with federal student loans qualify for income-driven repayment plans, and can review the options and apply at Studentaid.gov.
Recently, the Education Department also announced it would soon cancel the debts of those who’ve been in repayment for a decade or more and originally took out $12,000 or less. To qualify, borrowers need to be enrolled in the administration’s new Saving on a Valuable Education, or SAVE, plan.
-----
The Biden administration has tried to reverse the trend of borrowers being excluded from the relief on technicalities. It has broadened eligibility and allowed people to reapply for the relief, as long as they were working in the public sector and paying down their debt.
Some 790,000 public servants have gotten their debt erased as a result, amounting to more than $56 billion in relief.
------
The Biden administration has also forgiven the student debt of more than 510,000 disabled borrowers. The $11.7 billion in aid was delivered under the Total and Permanent Disability Discharge.
----
Another 1.3 million borrowers have walked away from their debt over the past few years thanks to the Borrower Defense Loan Discharge. These people received $22.5 billion in relief.
Borrowers can be eligible for the discharge if their schools suddenly closed or they were cheated by their colleges.
-----
The Biden administration is also working to revise its broad forgiveness plan to make it legally viable.
The president may try to deliver that relief before November.
That alternative plan, which has become known as Biden’s “Plan B,” could forgive the student debt for as many as 10 million people, according to one estimate.

I just wanted to say, I started grad school at SCAD at the beginning of the month and part of what inspired me to do so was following you years ago when I was in high school
Oh gosh man, good luck!!! I had some good times there… Genuinely hope it will be more worthwhile to you than my degree in Batman, as they call it ����

i went into one of my school's practice rooms last year just to check it out and play piano since it had been a while, and there were still newspapers sitting on the piano that i had left there prior to covid before everything shut down LOL people just. Leave Things Be in there
also when i was a student i got one of my music theory books from the same fucking practice room. someone just left it there and it sat for a long time so i. took it. and it was an older edition than we were supposed to have for class so my homework sometimes didn't match up with module numbers but hey it beat spending like $300 on the newest edition lmfao

i'm having a slow start this morning and still ruminating about what a racket it is that college is considered like. this huge Thing art people need to go through to have a career. we made fun of frat boys for defending paying dues because it gave them access to ephemeral Important Network Connections and this doesn't seem much different. it's one of those things like, if you're on the level where you are here considering how to GET the very exclusive networking connections the ship for anything major has sailed, and anything smaller than that you can game yourself without paying 15k per semester
also how many horrifyingly successful creators do you know of who Accidentally fell into the thing that got them there, every single monolithic webcomic success story got there by just fucking around in some capacity lol. meanwhile i've known SO many people who did everything Right and got some secret webtoon anime deal, or an Image deal, or got A Deal but spent literal years in development hell because they DID find a publisher but indie comics are at the BOTTOM of the priority list no matter what your contract looks like, and you haven't heard of any of them because the work either never got finished or it's just gathering dust on the indie trade shelf in the back of the comic shop.
there are definitely choices you can make on purpose to put yourself in a better position to take advantage of opportunities if they arise, but anyone who thinks there is exactly one single path to success and it also happens to cost a lot of money is. selling something lmfao. just having a real, tangible body of work that you're passionate about is better clout than anything you could pay for

like genuinely the bare minimum everyone in the U.S.A. should be doing to support Palestine, if not boycotting, protesting, blocking military shipments etc., should be contacting their politicians on EVERY level, up to the fucking White House, constantly and fully threatening to withhold votes if they don't stop licking Israel's genocidal asshole because apparently the votes is ALL these assholes care about!
