Aside from bees and butterflies, bats are one of the most important pollinators on the planet - especially in tropical and desert regions.

This is why baby boomers think we can pay for school while having a part time job

[prismatic-bell]

If you were curious, that’s $714.33 in 2018 numbers.

It’s also approximately what I make for two weeks’ Labor.

If you only make 714.33 every two weeks, sorry for your luck. Strive to be better.

Also by making loans and grants for college easier they basically made it so colleges could charge more. Take them away and colleges won’t have a market, so they’d have to charge less or close down. Simple fucking economics.

[all-aboard-the-bane-train]

Nearly all student loans in the US are federally guaranteed. This means the banks have zero liability, as if you default, the govt will pay them, and act as collector to come after you for the balance.

If the banks have no liability, they’ll happily hand out cash for whatever you want, many times knowing full well that your degree in sixth century ornithologists feminist theory won’t ever in any way lead to a financially stable career.

Because the universities know you have large sums of cash, given easily, and that you’ll pay whatever they charge, they hike tuition and book rates astronomically (lots of cash supply, and even more college demand).

Like nearly all problems in this country, it stems from banks, government, and private industry (for profit schools) conspiring to fleece entire generations while selling them effectively nothing.

The emperor has no clothes and no one cares.

#Inktober 2018 Part 2

This year I decided to use Inktober to create designs for my personal project:  Tankhead. Set in an alternate universe where World War II did not end and just carried on forever, the war machines evolved from vehicles of wheels to colossal walking titans of steel. 

From top: Tankzilla, Mammut Heavy Tankhead, Tarhe Skycrane,  Rei-sen Jethead (Kamikaze Type)
