The latest crazy just proves what we all know. They are discussing everything on Signal to avoid any discovery or FOIA or archival laws. So illegal but here we are.

New vase. It’s been in my head for several years now, glad to have the first version out. Lots of work to do with how the joints connect, keeping it clean, the shape of the arches.

Just a reminder that the "don't buy stuff" action for tomorrow Fri 2/28 refers to corporations. Feel free to celebrate the day by shopping at your local indie bookstore and/or other small local shops. They will appreciate your business! #Booksky #ShopLocal #IndieBookstores

New WTF mugs up as of noon EST. New glaze courtesy of Glazy/Derek Au. Super gorgeous, fit is just 🤌🏻 and when it’s thick it really starts to show off.

Serving dishes. These are about 12” long and just hover over the table on tiny feet. Usually made with scrap slabs and quickly. Good way to practice the craft of putting elements together.

Does it get so bad that the airline industry collapses because it becomes so unsafe?
The flying public needs answers. How many FAA personnel were just fired? What positions? And why?

parenting a kid with neurodivergence is like having another full time job. And most of what you experienced as a kid in regards to how to parent either doesn't work or is actively unhelpful, so you also have to work on yourself. And then on top of that, fascism.

Finally ready to glaze. No crazing. Been months of disappointment and testing; ready to make the jump on work that I have been sitting on for the better part of a year. The most exciting thing for me is that sense of moving forward, of having a language I can use as I make.

Chaos reigns. Not sure where to put my energy. But at least men’s socks have come this far. I remember when I could only get white or black. I will take my joy where I can get it, feet first if need be. Ten toes down.

Country’s being pulled apart; feels weird to be making anything in the studio. Or trying to “better” oneself. (I see these things working in tandem) Sturdy leadership, as a parent, is getting harder by the day. Sometimes hour.

Scrolling through images of older work to (re)introduce myself here. There are lots of people on IG who I used to see and haven’t in ages. My guess is that they haven’t seen me either. Hello!
