The US govt is now shutdown, Republicans keep illegally dismantling basic services while Dems host pressers and send angry letters.

Our leaders have failed us and we need a new approach.

The Moonlight Movement is organizing a fresh creative strategy to fight back, but we need your help, a thread ➡️

Huge number of people left hall H after the Ryan Gosling panel and they haven’t let any of the ADA line in. They said they’re actively looking for seats but can’t find any. Absolute bullshit. We’ve waited 5+ hours for this panel and will miss it 😓

I wrote a pretty long IG post about what worked & what didn’t in making these from silicone molds & my results were: spray Windex on the silicone & pour plaster while Windex is still damp. Tap/shake molds vigorously for 2-3 minutes until air bubbles stop rising to the surface.

Wow hey Bsky it’s been a while and I’ve done 3 soda firings and taken a mold making class this year. Most recently I’ve been working on making molds of these little row houses but trying to get a good cast from the silicone before I make the mold for slip casting.

YES. If you mask everywhere- or at least in the most crowded places that people cannot avoid, like stores- then it places masks in the category of Everyday Clothing. It makes it SO much harder to ban when at least a decent chunk of people wear them.
it is beyond time to see your own complicity in the present moment: when you only mask at protests & never even consider doing so in the grocery store, pharmacy, on public transit, you contribute to a social climate able to criminalize protective tools. CHOOSE SOLIDARITY, prevent infection, mask up.
resist mainstreaming the far right & their ideals with choices you make every day—an easy one is to wear a respirator in, at the very least, public indoor spaces.

needless spread of novel & thought-to-be-gone pathogens has been key to the eugenicists playbook. prevent it.

Got some gorgeous soda firing results back from the studio on my lunch break and can’t stop picking them up and looking at them. They’re all so different and interesting but this one is obviously my favorite 🧡

Pay attention to this: Musk is trying to make our air traffic control system "dependent” on him by integrating his equipment, which has not gone through security and risk-management review.

It's corruption. And it's dangerous.

Fire Elon Musk.

Bisqued Velaris wall piece - should the wash be black underglaze or red iron oxide? This is for a cone 6 soda firing next week.

As an early birthday present to me, we went to see my two favorite hockey teams Flyers v. Kraken play and I got to watch warm-ups from the front row. SO fun to see the guys I’m usually watching on TV after 10pm EST up close and playing around. Also really fun to see the @seattlekraken.com win! 🦑

If you want to get a better measure of how many people in the US military or formerly in it will actually oppose Trump, get working on recruiting them to join this protest. #3E

Don't just guess, organize, and find out.
Call to action: Veterans March in DC on March 14. If you know a vet or active service member talk to them about the danger of the Trump regime and encourage them to participate.

For any devs wondering what 18F does (did), here’s its GitHub org page, with 1,210 repos. A few were mine! All the work they did for all their agency partners was open source. Public money should produce public software, for public inspection.

Those days are over, starting today.

Rereading Throne of Glass series right now (on Crown of Midnight currently). Wondering what Aelin would do to help the resistance if she worked in the US government. Or just in general.
