Not reaffirming the principle of central bank independence when it is visibly under strain in the U.S. sends the wrong message. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/commentary/2026/01/15/japan/silence-wont-protect-boj/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #commentary #japan #boj #interestrates #japaneseeconomy #kazuoueda #monetarypolicy

You could be the smartest person in the world, but if your emotions have blinded you to objective reality, no-one can tell the difference between you and an idiot.

Interview: "Trump's Gaza 'Peace' Plan"

The UN acceptance of Trump's plan "abolished 70 years of UN history [&] gave Gaza to Donald J. Trump.”

The UN resolution* "annuls decades of precedent established under international law on Palestine — erasing its entire legal history."

~Norman Finkelstein

*Resolution 2803 (2025)

OMFG. After week in bed due to severe asthmatic bronchitis following a month of a lingering cough post-Influenza-A, I go into Dollar General for my Doordash customer & you would swear I grew a 3rd, 4th, & 5th head with pentagrams incised on all 3 of them because I had the audacity to put on a goddamn mask.

Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz: "News reports simply do not do justice to the level of chaos and disruption and trauma the federal government is raining down upon our communities. …

"This long ago stopped being a matter of immigration enforcement. Instead, it's a campaign of organized brutality against the people of Minnesota by our own federal government."

DAN KOH: “$30 BILLION for 10,000 more ICE agents… that would cover all the ACA subsidies for a year. It would eliminate all medical debt. Trump is making it easier to kill people than keep people alive.”

ohhhh crying in the libraryyyyyyyy

A student in their final semester who has been checking out a laptop from us every week their whole time here just came up to return, not renew, one because they could finally afford their own and they wrote up a testimonial to talk about the positive impact it had for them.

There is a lot, way too much, bullshit at my institution, but these little moments where we get to really see what the library can do for a person is what keeps me in the fight.

Gov. Walz understands EXACTLY what is happening in #Minnesota, in #Minneapolis in particular. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fGTsYXBWQgU 1/

"We are facing an absolute, there's only one word that I use to explain it but fascist, crackdown. ICE is a rogue agency. They're killing Americans in the street, going door to door. They are pointing weapons at people who pose no threat to anyone."

What the actual fuck? ICE has been holding three members of the Oglala Sioux tribe in detention since Friday. Tribal members are US citizens by statute.

Homeland Security is refusing to release any information on these tribal members, other than first names, until the tribe enters into an "immigration agreement" with ICE. Again, WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK?

“F*cking b*tch”.

We all know what it means. Most women know exactly the type of man who uses that language.

Jonathan Ross wasn’t afraid for his life. He didn’t think he was in danger.

He shot Renee Nicole Good because she wasn’t afraid.

He took her life because he was angry that she didn’t cower in his presence.

Didn’t show him the deference he felt he deserved.

These are the men DHS gives unchecked power to.

I didn’t want to write this article. I didn’t want to watch her die.

But we can’t remain silent in the face of such atrocities:
