I was holding it together for the most part after today’s ruling by the Supreme Court. But this broke me…😞

😔💔 “While the court did not strike down the provision entirely, Justice Elena Kagan said Wednesday’s ruling made Section 2 of the VRA ‘all but a dead letter.’” www.texastribune.org/2026/04/29/u...

It would seem my inbox has a very active opinion about how I run my business. Apparently I’m failing, unbranded, not promoting properly, and just one platform paid subscription away from greatness—this comes at me 50-100+ times a day. It’s almost comforting how committed they are. 😅🤣

I’ve been paying attention to what gets seen on here…and what gets quietly escorted off the premises. So I’m trying something a little different—just placing this without overthinking it (which is new for me). Let’s see if this gets past security: 😏 simplyedynandco.com

Day 2 of my 30-day challenge. My mentor asked me to spend 30 days—until our next meetup—rethinking how I approach sales and marketing without losing myself in it. The goal: learn how to grow my small business without treating people like data. I actually want to engage potential customers and...

This past week, my mentor challenged me to rethink how I approach sales and marketing. I took it to heart—and picked up my pen instead of optimizing. This is about building a business without turning people into data, and what it costs to try. simplyedynandco.com/blogs/this-h...

Black people prove once again that we are sophisticated and strategic voters who not only know how to navigate a political system trained against us but can defy mis- and disinformation. Thank you, Virginia.

Happy Earth Day 🌱, but make it real...every day. The pieces I’ve created for May's Fibromyalgia Awareness Month are made with sustainable, earth-conscious materials—because what touches your skin should be as considered as what it leaves behind. simplyedynandco.com/collections/...

I’m really over and done with the toxicity of influencer culture. 😑 Had a meeting with my business mentor last night and had a good chat about how I will not tap into that space to promote or boost my sales. Not that I could afford to pay anyone right now…but damn, they piss me off. 😠😡🤬

May is Fibromyalgia Awareness Month. I'm jumping this party off early. Fibromyalgia is part of what I’m living with—deep muscle pain, fatigue that doesn’t really lift, a nervous system that doesn’t always cooperate. There’s no cure. You manage it as best you can.

I’ve been working toward something I need to share. I’ve been sitting with it for a while, and I wasn’t sure how to begin. Here’s the truth. I’m raising funds for a $52k medically necessary treatment. I’ve lived with chronic pain for 25 years due to an autoimmune neurological condition.

Been going back and forth with myself on how to approach this. I've built the "thing" now I'm scared no one will...see me. But, honestly, I don’t know what else to do at this point. I have to fight and advocate unapologetically for my own healthcare and quality of life at this point.

Have to admit I have a lot of things weighing on my mind. I can't sleep. So I need to brain dump a few things... Ladies—I'm gonna say this and pray it holds and sinks in with and for all my sisters. Guard your life like it matters, because it does. Trust what your body tells you.

Hungary's election is a reminder that no matter how much a dictator rigs the system, there's no defense against nearly 80% of voters showing up… Remember that.

One of my new shirts from @brat2381.bsky.social Etsy store (link in her bio). Sooo many cute choices, excellent quality- shop now. Grab some gifts to put aside for bdays and Christmas. Plus I love this message for our friends like @bluecrabdiva.com

after all this? yeah. the bear. I’ve seen enough. no further questions. 🔗 simplyedynandco.com/products/aft...

I don’t think I say this enough, but I’m actually really proud of what I’ve built. It’s just been me—figuring things out as I go, learning every part of it because I had to, because I wanted to do it right. And I’m still learning. 😌

The Price of Movement Just Changed This week, one of my printing vendors raised shipping rates. Not because they wanted to—but because they had to. Rising fuel costs, driven in part by ongoing instability in the Middle East, have pushed carriers to increase prices and add..

I think I write and create as a form of expressive compulsion, my coping with the world. When I’m sad I write, when I’m depressed, happy, curious, scared, insecure, inspired, uncertain, discouraged..on and on and on…I always create. simplyedynandco.com

I’m convinced there’s something deeply warped and intentional about the general under development of emotional and practical intelligence across the United States.

Every time he gets angry at the people around him for not being evil and vile and cruel enough to the people he hates, he punishes the American people. There is no offramp plan...he will destroy everything before he exits. He has no intention of not dying in the WH. IMO. thehill.com/policy/healt...

It's about the ACTION of intention. Not just the intention.

My newest treatment makes everything smell and taste awful. Bonus: has my already insufferable case of insomnia thriving right now.

And I really don't like HIM.

D.C.’s biggest bully just pulled up to the Supreme Court to try to intimidate the justices into ending birthright citizenship. No sitting president has ever attended oral arguments — but this one thinks the Constitution is optional and that the Court must bow down to him.

I don’t know how to move through this without trying to make it better for others. It’s annoying as hell. I wish I could pretend not to see the world for what it is. It would be easier. But I’ve come to accept that I’m not interested in becoming less human to make this easier to live with.

Day 1. Most of these systems only works because we keep going along with them. Funding them, complying with them, and calling it normal. We can stop. Shut it down. This system only runs because we allow it to. Or we can keep pretending we don’t have a choice. simplyedynandco.com/blogs/the-un...
