2026, I'll be living two lives (even though I'm not a Gemini): Margo Hendricks, aka MargoH, and Elysabeth Grace. MargoH will be primarily on BlueSky with her shenanigans. By the way, re my www.gofundme.com/f/support-ma...: the MFs were found guilty of 2nd degree homicide. Still need aid.

These fucking politicians need to STOP CONSTANTLY admonishing protestors to be "peaceful" while they are being brutalized regularly by the gatekeepers of the state. You should be up there telling ICE and Border Patrol to be fucking peaceful.

I don't know who needs to hear this, but cops are not allowed to shoot people just because you didn't do what they said.
That is called murder when they do that.
Some cops are working hard to convince people otherwise.

I want us to stay focused on the grief of this terrible moment, but when Black people tell you not to touch something, that is not a challenge. Some things are ours for a reason. We can remember Renee Good as the person she was and the circumstances of her murder without co-opting Black suffering.
“Say her name” is not about allyship. It’s a term crafted for people who are the focus of violence that deliberately erases us. It’s not for her, and it wouldn’t be for her, even if she were Heather Heyer, who didn’t get it when she died for civil rights. Can you understand that?

Good morning. I'd like to invite anyone who is interested to make a small gesture of kindness today. It's up to you to decide what that can be. The key is for you to act on the idea. With so much out of our control, we can choose how to be with each other today and every day.

I have now seen two separate AI reconstruction pictures of Renee Good’s murderer and they are different, which tells you that they’re not good and you should stop sharing them.

Look at the hundreds of people in that community in Minneapolis who ran TOWARDS the danger. Look at those who documented in their heads what happened so they could accurately recount it afterwards, look at those currently out protesting. Pay attention & do your part too.

Human brains feed off of negativity. Negative thoughts are easily digested and play in a loop in your mind all of the time. The reality, however, is that there is also A LOT OF GOOD happening every single minute. You have to do more work to pay attention to the good but it's worth it.

A lot of people are fighting over whether or not watching a video of someone's death makes you a better activist or person and I would like to gently suggest that what you do in response to the video's existence is what matters, whether you watched it or not.

2/2 I've tarred roofs, hauled around 50 pound sacks of gravel and salt, driven forklifts, and pulled orders all day in 100 degree Texas heat. I hated every minute those jobs and hope I never have to go back to one. But I would if it was that or shooting people in the face for trying to run away.

1/2 The thing that gets to me about ICE isn't that it's full of fascist true believers, but that it's packed with regular people too. Look at ICE job fairs. Regular people lined up saying, "A job is a job." No, it fucking isn't. I've worked shitty jobs...

Since that fraud claim went so viral, it seems important to get this spread as well
The author of a viral Reddit thread alleging fraud at a food delivery company tried to back up his claim by sending me AI-generated documents. Today I'm publishing those documents in the hopes that it helps other reporter see what we're up against in the age of AI www.platformer.news/fake-uber-ea...
