Last Notes npub1l26x4qe24zunx9r5997k5zpxwxhwuetkhsvhf4utm9zrpday2ahqp72ynh Ericka Simone @npub1e9x…msz2 checking in. You okay? npub1l26x4qe24zunx9r5997k5zpxwxhwuetkhsvhf4utm9zrpday2ahqp72ynh Ericka Simone nope. I rebuke that. You will be healthy. In the short and long term. You will have your health. npub1l26x4qe24zunx9r5997k5zpxwxhwuetkhsvhf4utm9zrpday2ahqp72ynh Ericka Simone Posers. https://files.mastodon.social/media_attachments/files/116/309/076/338/310/912/original/0be7a6b63ae846f5.jpeg npub1l26x4qe24zunx9r5997k5zpxwxhwuetkhsvhf4utm9zrpday2ahqp72ynh Ericka Simone Music is never going to win. Just constant capitalist manipulation, enshittification and the idiots who are easily manipulated out of their money and attention. Used to have empathy for said idiots. No more. It’s a blatant choice. There’s an element of the unhealthy parasocial idolization and a lack personal identity/hobbies/overall mental hygiene that goes into play, clearly. But still. The enshittification of artistic expression and the idiots who fall for it. I just don’t know. npub1l26x4qe24zunx9r5997k5zpxwxhwuetkhsvhf4utm9zrpday2ahqp72ynh Ericka Simone Sorry for the AAVE, however. Whoever is trying to leak Banksy’s identity needs a sanctified ass whooping. npub1l26x4qe24zunx9r5997k5zpxwxhwuetkhsvhf4utm9zrpday2ahqp72ynh Ericka Simone Welp. We just caught our first “AI Music Artist” at work today. Someone pushing a completely non-existing creation as a whole person/artist with a whole album, attempting to get it signed. Had it not been for me doing a deep dive into the background of this person… the label would have fallen for it. It’s been getting scary for a while… but now, as an established music exec and musician…. I am fkin TERRIFIED. #AISlop #AIMusicSlop #AI #AImusic npub1l26x4qe24zunx9r5997k5zpxwxhwuetkhsvhf4utm9zrpday2ahqp72ynh Ericka Simone Good. Not too late for #Caturday. My favorite inspiration. https://files.mastodon.social/media_attachments/files/116/231/460/051/798/695/original/615b63d4ab4138f8.jpeg npub1l26x4qe24zunx9r5997k5zpxwxhwuetkhsvhf4utm9zrpday2ahqp72ynh Ericka Simone https://files.mastodon.social/media_attachments/files/116/224/164/551/821/292/original/a7403a04b9dfca94.jpeg npub1l26x4qe24zunx9r5997k5zpxwxhwuetkhsvhf4utm9zrpday2ahqp72ynh Ericka Simone 37 pre-teen and teenaged children rescued from a human trafficking ring in Hemet, California. 50 identified; 13 still missing. This follows a larger sting that occurred a few months back involving forced sex work/trafficking ring. No one seems to be talking about this. How serious and how often it occurs. Especially in the light of recent island activities. So here is the presser. Please. If you have kids. Talk to them. About everything. https://www.latimes.com/california/story/2026-03-10/37-teens-rescued-7-arrested-human-trafficking-southern-california-nearby-states npub1l26x4qe24zunx9r5997k5zpxwxhwuetkhsvhf4utm9zrpday2ahqp72ynh Ericka Simone Now they’re trying to blame a Black woman, a former prison guard, for the death of Jeffrey Epstein. Instead of just… you know. Arresting everyone on that list that is alive. This country’s obsession with (attempting to) humble, blame and demean Black women for things that have nothing to do with us (while letting White pedos ruin the earth) should be studied in-depth. It’s delving into mental illness, the level of obsession. Has been for a while. npub1l26x4qe24zunx9r5997k5zpxwxhwuetkhsvhf4utm9zrpday2ahqp72ynh Ericka Simone Yeah. Being a Black woman in a country that chose a convicted pedophile over making its student loans disappear is quite the mindfuck. I love California. To live in die in LA. But also. America is gross. WTF do I do. npub1l26x4qe24zunx9r5997k5zpxwxhwuetkhsvhf4utm9zrpday2ahqp72ynh Ericka Simone we were just having this convo in class. The new wave of people using masks for privacy reasons. I love it and want to participate. npub1l26x4qe24zunx9r5997k5zpxwxhwuetkhsvhf4utm9zrpday2ahqp72ynh Ericka Simone Telling my friends that my favorite bands name is “Heart Angina” has been one of the bigger challenges in my obsession with #music. I feel like the #bonkwave kids will like this. #anginedepoitrine https://files.mastodon.social/media_attachments/files/116/196/833/107/228/864/original/66b91057697c5728.mp4 npub1l26x4qe24zunx9r5997k5zpxwxhwuetkhsvhf4utm9zrpday2ahqp72ynh Ericka Simone https://files.mastodon.social/media_attachments/files/116/160/523/269/836/964/original/1028eb409d8b4756.jpeg npub1l26x4qe24zunx9r5997k5zpxwxhwuetkhsvhf4utm9zrpday2ahqp72ynh Ericka Simone Need a distraction? Yeah you do. Go ahead and pick one for me. #stegosaurus forever but also I want to fly on a #pterodactyl. #dinosaurs https://files.mastodon.social/media_attachments/files/116/151/900/928/343/444/original/750123a801c82e08.jpeg npub1l26x4qe24zunx9r5997k5zpxwxhwuetkhsvhf4utm9zrpday2ahqp72ynh Ericka Simone It’s not like I (we?) don’t know exactly what this behavior is about. American liberals are still blaming Harris to cope with their own poor, racist choices. Still finding ways to blame her to avoid responsibility for the concentration camps their abstain votes built. White people couldn’t show up to vote for her, but show up on the book tour to yell at her for a genocide she had nothing to do with. The misogynoir is intense. The dedication to anti-Blackness and delusion… yikes. npub1l26x4qe24zunx9r5997k5zpxwxhwuetkhsvhf4utm9zrpday2ahqp72ynh Ericka Simone Pedophiles leading us into WWIII because you thought Kamala started the war in Gaza herself/You hate Black women so much you believed the propaganda they fed you. You wanted to humble women and ended up humiliating yourself. Good job, White Americans. Appreciate that. npub1l26x4qe24zunx9r5997k5zpxwxhwuetkhsvhf4utm9zrpday2ahqp72ynh Ericka Simone Before they force Artificial Intelligence (Skynet) on us, I’d like to see something done about the Natural/Organic Stupidity I’m already forced to deal with daily. npub1l26x4qe24zunx9r5997k5zpxwxhwuetkhsvhf4utm9zrpday2ahqp72ynh Ericka Simone This is the theory of most PR firms in film. This was intentional harm done with a focus on drawing more attention to a loser, shitty film no one saw, and had nowhere near the traction Sinners had. He made sure to target ONLY the Black actors and cast of the movie as well. Also, BAFTA let it run because racial violence against Black people would put them ahead of Olympics dominated press. Unreal levels of white supremacist terrorism. From: @npub1rjh…ry94 https://mstdn.social/@TomasHradcky/116126379540803854 npub1l26x4qe24zunx9r5997k5zpxwxhwuetkhsvhf4utm9zrpday2ahqp72ynh Ericka Simone So apparently that man was yelling that slur out at multiple cast members of Sinners, and Sinners only. Multiple people expressed concern. He yelled it just as the entire room went silent. Tourette’s does not trigger racism. Racism is a learned behavior. His Coprolalia just exposed what he’s been learning behind the scenes. …and so the fallout begins. https://www.theguardian.com/film/2026/feb/24/bafta-judge-jonte-richardson-quits-over-tourette-n-word-handling npub1l26x4qe24zunx9r5997k5zpxwxhwuetkhsvhf4utm9zrpday2ahqp72ynh Ericka Simone it was a choice. As we discussed, even with coprolalia, there are multiple medications that he could have engaged to minimize or negate his issues. He clearly did not engage those options. He could have done multiple things to regulate his system. He did not. You seem hellbent on justifying the use of this word and it’s beyond disturbing. Asking me “what should he apologize for” is insane. Stop. Your disability does not supersede my humanity. npub1l26x4qe24zunx9r5997k5zpxwxhwuetkhsvhf4utm9zrpday2ahqp72ynh Ericka Simone AI really is the new colonizer. Solidifying my commitment to decolonize on every level, including digital. npub1l26x4qe24zunx9r5997k5zpxwxhwuetkhsvhf4utm9zrpday2ahqp72ynh Ericka Simone Hey guys. A victim of DV needs help. After having her abusive significant other removed (arrested) from her house and being taken to the hospital, my friend was locked out her house (thanks LAPD). It will take $125 to get a locksmith to open her doors. She doesn’t have it. If anyone can send anything to help a victim of DV get back into her house, we’d be grateful. #mutualaid https://www.paypal.me/ErickaSimone https://cash.app/$ErickaSimone +erickasimone.venmo From: @npub1l26…2ynh https://mastodon.social/@ErickaSimone/116072077685613416 npub1l26x4qe24zunx9r5997k5zpxwxhwuetkhsvhf4utm9zrpday2ahqp72ynh Ericka Simone #Ireland becomes the first country to implement a secure basic income for all #artists and #musicians.

Nothing but Superb Owls, kitties, puppies, science and good conversation. What the internets should be. npub1l26x4qe24zunx9r5997k5zpxwxhwuetkhsvhf4utm9zrpday2ahqp72ynh Ericka Simone For those asking: Yes. I am the same Ericka Simone who worked with the legendary journalist Chi Chi Izundu to takedown Tim Westwood, and hold BBC Music accountable for 40 years of sexual harassment and abuse. Including a formal apology from the legacy media outlet. My LIFE has been dedicated to the betterment of music in every way possible. I hope one day, someone will see the sacrifices I have made to keep women — and all humans — safe in this evil industry. https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/ce98n0074zro.amp npub1l26x4qe24zunx9r5997k5zpxwxhwuetkhsvhf4utm9zrpday2ahqp72ynh Ericka Simone LOL. If you think the Jay Z/Epistein/Weinstein situation/connection is weird… Wait until I walk you through factual mainstream hip hop history and remind you that Jay-Z started seeing/dating Beyonce at 16 years old. That was AFTER he ALSO dated an underage Aaliyah (17) who left him for Dame Dash, after Jay decided he was going to do an ENTIRE ALBUM with R. Kelly. Haven’t even addressed the “took Foxy Brown’s virginity at 15” rumors. They were all complicit, and everyone knew. Almost encouraged. npub1l26x4qe24zunx9r5997k5zpxwxhwuetkhsvhf4utm9zrpday2ahqp72ynh Ericka Simone Epstein files confirming everything I’ve known and felt in my bones from the beginning: All of your favorites are garbage.

Going to mute out all politics, block out all the wannabe journalists and POC voices, be intentionally ignorant, and act like I had nothing to do with this. Completely detach and not care about anything but myself. Possibly catch an attitude with a Black person and block them when they ask me about it. lol. npub1l26x4qe24zunx9r5997k5zpxwxhwuetkhsvhf4utm9zrpday2ahqp72ynh Ericka Simone While you’re boycotting FIFA, I want to remind you. Boycott the Olympics too. Don’t come to LA. npub1l26x4qe24zunx9r5997k5zpxwxhwuetkhsvhf4utm9zrpday2ahqp72ynh Ericka Simone But you know. A few people dead because of ICE. But as long as that Black lady with the funny laugh isn’t president amirite? We stuck it to em, owned the libs, right? Yeah. npub1l26x4qe24zunx9r5997k5zpxwxhwuetkhsvhf4utm9zrpday2ahqp72ynh Ericka Simone They’re only shooting and targeting people in smaller cities and states like Minneapolis because Los Angeles, Portland, Chicago and New York would destroy them. Just to be clear. npub1l26x4qe24zunx9r5997k5zpxwxhwuetkhsvhf4utm9zrpday2ahqp72ynh Ericka Simone Everyone owes Anita Hill all of the apologies. npub1l26x4qe24zunx9r5997k5zpxwxhwuetkhsvhf4utm9zrpday2ahqp72ynh Ericka Simone what are you thinking in terms of real action. npub1l26x4qe24zunx9r5997k5zpxwxhwuetkhsvhf4utm9zrpday2ahqp72ynh Ericka Simone So who’s gonna #impeach dude. Someone. Anytime. npub1l26x4qe24zunx9r5997k5zpxwxhwuetkhsvhf4utm9zrpday2ahqp72ynh Ericka Simone You guys remember those 80s commercials where you could sponsor a child out of poverty in a developing company? Usually In Africa? Welp. Anyone wanna sponsor a poor African American to get TF out of a murderous America? Please. Help someone who actually did everything they could do to stop fascism just to be silenced by hegemonic racism. Taking any open spot you got. npub1l26x4qe24zunx9r5997k5zpxwxhwuetkhsvhf4utm9zrpday2ahqp72ynh Ericka Simone oh I forgot for once. Gimme a sec. npub1l26x4qe24zunx9r5997k5zpxwxhwuetkhsvhf4utm9zrpday2ahqp72ynh Ericka Simone "Research is formalized curiosity. It is poking and prying with a purpose.

It’s daily, everyone knows, and there seems to be “concepts and idea” of “community” and a plan to address it, but nothing. Don’t know what else you want people to do, but at this point, if they don’t start making clear and direct statements demanding a clear end to racial and gender harassment, with and press releases clarifying their stance on anti-fascism, it’s performative. npub1l26x4qe24zunx9r5997k5zpxwxhwuetkhsvhf4utm9zrpday2ahqp72ynh Ericka Simone In todays episode of waking up to #racism and #mansplaining: we have racial slurs as screennames in my likes, and a man *incorrectly* mansplaining theeeee Martha Root on a site that she took down. Someone also had the nerve to boost Taylor Lorenz once again engaging in her normal tabloid gossip. Again. I love you guys, but the consistent loser sh*t I see on this site (on the internet, in media, in America) is a constant reminder that you have no idea how serious internet racism/fascism is. https://files.mastodon.social/media_attachments/files/115/854/952/044/736/574/original/ca4e4e27a335abc6.jpeg https://files.mastodon.social/media_attachments/files/115/854/952/048/097/814/original/7bba9d6a69379fa0.jpeg https://files.mastodon.social/media_attachments/files/115/854/960/534/531/215/original/4447f45b91131974.jpeg npub1l26x4qe24zunx9r5997k5zpxwxhwuetkhsvhf4utm9zrpday2ahqp72ynh Ericka Simone The woman who showed full on allyship and dropped 3 different white nazi sites as a causal flex at the end of her talk is on Fedi, and you guys aren’t hyping her up enough for me.

You people are miserable, misogynistic, racist assholes on this site on average, you use the guise of “mansplaining” or “verifying info” to be fucking losers, and you have no real plans to protect people from this abusive behavior, nor do you correct people when you see it happening. When are you going to address this culture. npub1l26x4qe24zunx9r5997k5zpxwxhwuetkhsvhf4utm9zrpday2ahqp72ynh Ericka Simone The form of resistance *I am engaging is not feeding into the manufactured chaos. Rest is a form of resistance. (Not an excuse to be ill-informed or apolitical however. There is a difference.) npub1l26x4qe24zunx9r5997k5zpxwxhwuetkhsvhf4utm9zrpday2ahqp72ynh Ericka Simone The first anniversary of the #EatonFires (and #PalisadesFire) is coming up on the 7th. A year later and things for LA are still the most unstable I’ve seen since the ‘92 Uprising and Northridge ‘94 quake combined. I just want to get back to normal. I just want financial stability.

Not money, not food. Just one can of formula, simply to see if these “churches” follow the basic fundamentals of their religious doctrine. So it’s going exactly the way you’d expect: Most churches are a no, and are Christian based. Majority saying “yes” are Catholic or African-American based congregations. *deadpans into camera* npub1l26x4qe24zunx9r5997k5zpxwxhwuetkhsvhf4utm9zrpday2ahqp72ynh Ericka Simone It’s not depression.

Thanks for letting me know. npub1l26x4qe24zunx9r5997k5zpxwxhwuetkhsvhf4utm9zrpday2ahqp72ynh Ericka Simone nope. One simple reason. “If you can convince the lowest white man he's better than the best colored man, he won't notice you're picking his pocket. Hell, give him somebody to look down on, and he'll empty his pockets for you.” -Lyndon B. Johnson npub1l26x4qe24zunx9r5997k5zpxwxhwuetkhsvhf4utm9zrpday2ahqp72ynh Ericka Simone it’s not gonna happen. I’m sorry. I’m just gonna get to the point. npub1l26x4qe24zunx9r5997k5zpxwxhwuetkhsvhf4utm9zrpday2ahqp72ynh Ericka Simone Is it just me or are most Americans just delusional as fk when it comes to the severity and reality of the situation? Am I the only one that wouldn’t step foot into ANY protest considering the fact this is a highly retaliatory regime leaning into a full surveillance state? Showing up to protests arranged by Walmart benefactors with no masks on and cameras everywhere? Can anyone explain what the goal is and how this gets convicted felons out of federal office? npub1l26x4qe24zunx9r5997k5zpxwxhwuetkhsvhf4utm9zrpday2ahqp72ynh Ericka Simone We did it again. #Setlist #Kingfish #ChristoneKingfishIngram #blues #music https://files.mastodon.social/media_attachments/files/115/388/046/102/438/139/original/eee0a93175b820b6.jpeg npub1l26x4qe24zunx9r5997k5zpxwxhwuetkhsvhf4utm9zrpday2ahqp72ynh Ericka Simone Stop supporting Spotify.

Loved ones invited me to the #JeffGoldblum #album release party. I already had an invite, but I was gonna sit in bed and cry. They didn’t let me. I’m grateful they didnt. I got the #setlist. Then I got the call list. Then I got the kindest, most genuine and sincere long hug from one of my favorite humans ever. Then he also gave me his water. Sometimes the universe speaks directly to me.

Let’s not pretend. npub1l26x4qe24zunx9r5997k5zpxwxhwuetkhsvhf4utm9zrpday2ahqp72ynh Ericka Simone Actually, definitely not sorry. I will not apologize for asking you to be better people, build better websites and care about people/users, especially when your previous fails have lead to full nazi takeovers of social media platforms across the internet. Implement active anti-racist and anti-fascist technological initiatives immediately, or everything you do will fail. npub1l26x4qe24zunx9r5997k5zpxwxhwuetkhsvhf4utm9zrpday2ahqp72ynh Ericka Simone Sorry, not sorry in advance. Stop trying to get people to come to #mastodon as if it’s any better than #bluesky. This place has deep, WEIRD issues it needs to address. Not only do you have the same (if not WORSE) problems with racism, general creepiness, and platforming known sociopaths, you also have the detriment of being confusing on a technical level. It’s Liberal racism (masto) vs Corporate racism (BS) and ALL will lose in the long run unless you address it. As is with every site, ever. npub1l26x4qe24zunx9r5997k5zpxwxhwuetkhsvhf4utm9zrpday2ahqp72ynh Ericka Simone I do have a whole set of bakeries I have to get to and support up north though.

Or religion in general. npub1l26x4qe24zunx9r5997k5zpxwxhwuetkhsvhf4utm9zrpday2ahqp72ynh Ericka Simone Just like the KKK was not a cult… just an extension of the many anti-Black White terrorists group that were born of confederate traitors who terrorized for profit and for fun. This is not a cult. MAGA is a full on White terrorist gang deeply entrenched in nazi culture, white-on-white, right-on-right violence against themselves, and anything that isn’t white. Let this KKKirk’s rightful and meaningful death and nazi sympathizing you’ve seen remind you of what America has become/always been. npub1l26x4qe24zunx9r5997k5zpxwxhwuetkhsvhf4utm9zrpday2ahqp72ynh Ericka Simone MAGA is not a “cult.” Cults rarely move to harm other communities. Cults lean into self-harm, removal of autonomy and extreme isolation from others. Above all else, one of the most defining characteristics of cults is, sadly, the mass su*cide of cult members if and when their rule is threatened. Jonestown was a cult. The ones who put on fresh nikes to head to the comet? Cult. MAGA is White American terrorist group/gang, and we need to call it what it is. Because it’s dangerous at this point. npub1l26x4qe24zunx9r5997k5zpxwxhwuetkhsvhf4utm9zrpday2ahqp72ynh Ericka Simone oh man. Was that the Colorado school shooting I heard about? npub1l26x4qe24zunx9r5997k5zpxwxhwuetkhsvhf4utm9zrpday2ahqp72ynh Ericka Simone there was a murder/sui on the same day? *goes and takes a nap* npub1l26x4qe24zunx9r5997k5zpxwxhwuetkhsvhf4utm9zrpday2ahqp72ynh Ericka Simone His father is a Sheriffs Officer. His mother is a gun nut who supposedly put him in tactical shooting courses for fun. FOR FUN. It just keeps getting better and better (and worse). The depths and depravity of American White-on-White crime never ceases to amaze and entertain. npub1l26x4qe24zunx9r5997k5zpxwxhwuetkhsvhf4utm9zrpday2ahqp72ynh Ericka Simone All those threats of White violence and MAGA-led civil war died down quickly once they figured out that once again, a White male MAGA terrorist is responsible for taking out their own. As I said before, the chickens will always come home to roost. I truly hope EVERYONE outside the United States sees how severe the hypocrisy and delusion of the average White American is, and how deeply embedded it is in White American psyche. It is dangerous and it doesn’t look like it’s changing anytime soon. npub1l26x4qe24zunx9r5997k5zpxwxhwuetkhsvhf4utm9zrpday2ahqp72ynh Ericka Simone and here we go. https://files.mastodon.social/media_attachments/files/115/187/555/150/648/889/original/d6b9dd35bbd77d17.jpeg npub1l26x4qe24zunx9r5997k5zpxwxhwuetkhsvhf4utm9zrpday2ahqp72ynh Ericka Simone So a White man… at an all White event…. in a predominantly white state, city and college… shot a documented and proud White nazi who advocated for the deaths of anything not White and male? Whew. This white-on-white crime is out of control. So much gang violence. I wonder why they act like this. Must be a lack of fathers in the home. They commit all the crime in this country, you know. npub1l26x4qe24zunx9r5997k5zpxwxhwuetkhsvhf4utm9zrpday2ahqp72ynh Ericka Simone Since it seems some of you need a reminder. *taps sign* https://song.link/i/1778643399 Don’t be a nazi sympathizer.
