NEW: @apnews.com confirms that ICE has begun electronically "disappearing" people in the agency's custody who have final orders of removal. As of last week, anyone jailed by ICE with a final order of removal will NOT appear in the ICE Online Detainee Locator System, making them effectively vanish.

Congress has just gone out of session to avoid impeaching Pete Hegseth. The Republican Party has caved. The lower courts continue to be the bulwark. Ultimately, SCOTUS, responsible for creating this monster, will have to tell him no & make it stick. joycevance.substack.com/p/another-lo...

There is a profound lack of humility in deciding what is a “good” human interaction, and describing behavior as “anti-social” sounds like something out of the red scare. Silently shutting off whole areas of dissent and debate is creepy, and wrong, and it seems being done without transparency.

Not only is the criteria for this “toxicity score” not laid out plainly as a rule people could follow (or question them on), it’s being used to shadow ban accounts without their knowledge. Silently putting people on mute when they disagree with you (even if you’re wrong) now THAT is toxic.

I applaud BlueSky working to create a safer space on the internet, but the language being used here and the entire mindset seems to forget their own subjective judgments are not cold data. These are human relationships and this is a medium for their existence, not a road with clear right of way.

Human language and behavior is idiosyncratic, sarcastic, sometimes angry and sometimes silly. That is what humanity is. Calling something a “toxicity score” is inherently flawed as the term toxic itself is applying a system of values and assumptions, and those are not being transparently disclosed

I replied in disagreement with Aaron on his performatively innocuous “toxicity score” and he then limited replies without responding. I’ve been a social strategist and analyst at the fortune 100 level for over a decade. I cowrote an official POV for social sentiment as a metric in 2015. Listen.

So, not allowing anyone to be upset with one another is your plan? That’s not toxicity, it’s humanity. The world we live in and democracy requires rage sometimes, arguably more. Don’t let people be dangerous, but otherwise keep your judgment of human conversations to yourself.

SCOOP from @fariharahman.bsky.social Pre-K and 3-K providers haven't been paid their regular advance payments ahead of the school year, forcing some to dig into their own pockets and apply for loans. www.cityandstateny.com/policy/2026/...

Weeks away from the start of school, 3-K and pre-K programs are without funding

Several providers said they’ve had to dig into their own pockets or apply for loans to be able to open their doors on Sept. 10.

Yes, in fact most of the data points to people leaving the job market out of despair. I serve on a board of technology marketers, of the 18 or so on the board more than half have been through a layoff in the last year, I don’t know anyone who’s landed a better role in hat time.

With the death of Lindsey Graham, who sat on the Judiciary Committee, Blanche’s nomination could deadlock in committee 11-11 if one Republican lawmaker chooses to defect. Tillis says he will not vote for Blanche unless he meets with Epstein survivors. Cornyn also didn't seem keen on Blanche.

If democrats did more things, even little things, and fewer shrugs of powerlessness the DSA would have a tenth of its popularity. Mamdani is just out here doing shit and it makes federal inertia look like immense weakness, whether fair or not.

Mitch McConnell isn’t a medical mystery. This is how cardiac arrest works if the person loses consciousness for more than a minute. Their body can be restarted but the brain is done. It happened to my mother, the doctors knew we shouldn’t have hope, but we didn’t figure it out for a few days.
