The Republicans just issued a new “standard” for research that would allow political appointees to review scientific findings, suppress those they don’t agree with, and punish the scientists who did the work (including fines and jail).

Why Trump’s push for ‘gold-standard science’ has researchers alarmed
Many scientists fear the Trump administration’s new standard means putting political appointees in charge, which could undercut independent research.

Tried out some underglaze transfers for the first time. They did fine on a horizontal surface but ran on vertical surfaces. Probably my fault because I did the transfers onto bisque instead of leather hard clay. Also trying out this clay that is supposed to be good for bakeware. Hello, banana bread!

Finally got around to taking “real” pictures of my raku vase from a couple weeks ago. Bare clay blackened with smoke and flowers painted with Seattle Pottery Supply turquoise raku glaze. #raku #pottery #ceramics #pottersofbluesky

I seem to be in the cat phase of my pottery journey. The tallest cat is glazed in Mayco’s new black timber on dark brown clay. The rest are raku fired in white crackle, yellow, and copper flash studio glazes. #raku #pottery #pottersofbluesky #cats

I’ll post better pictures later, but I was just so happy with this raku piece. I used our studio gold luster for the flower centers and the flowers are a turquoise raku glaze from Seattle Pottery Supply. I love the texture that developed where the glaze was thick. #pottery #raku #pottersofbluesky
