Still a messy pile of colorful feathers.

Let’s trade pots!
My 3rd oil cruet. These are very satisfying to make. #pottery

First attempt using Terra Sig on a request for a tapered mug. I’m happy with the results but I definitely have some learning to do. Looking forward to exploring this more!

New painting of a small twig, possibly for an audience of me, but here it is anyway.
I'm not sure if I want to not paint lichen again for a while, or paint everything else covered in lichen...

Just a simple soda fired mug for #mugshotmonday.

I’ve said this before but on the heels of yesterday’s economic blackout, I feel the need to reiterate.

A one day blackout or multiday boycott is probably not enough to make change happen. They know the money will still be sent in days before or after.

BE WILLING TO BE INCONVENIENCED LONG TERM.

Slab built pitcher done a while back. I love how the color combo of the yellow and blue against the red clay. I’ve been wanting to make a dinnerware set and I might revisit this design as a jumping off point. What do you think? ~Lance

@apollo83.bsky.social asked me for a vase for some Lego flowers. I’ve been on a kick of making vaguely (and some not so vaguely) spaceship themed pots lately and he and his wife are both big sci-fi fans so I know this is going to a good home.

Heavily textured thumb rests for that extra sensory stimulation really make a mug for me. #pottery

Shark fact: Its oddly shaped cephalofoil (winged head) may be used for sensory reception, manoeuvering, and prey manipulation.

Another pot from the same soda firing as yesterday’s teapot and by far my favorite piece out of this firing. I’ve been playing around with weird thrown and altered designs for cooking oil bottles. I’ll be returning to this one at some point. #pottery

If 2024 YR4 requires our attention, it deserves a better name. I’m proposing Krishna. Named for a god of compassion because whether it hits us or not, it seems like it’ll be compassionate.

Oh, the irony of X-Men 97 trying to make a statement about moving on from the comforts of your past…

The youngest known neutron star turned 37 last week so “acting my age” gives me the right to be extremely dense and incinerate anything that touches me.

Also just a reminder that the Global Strike for Gaza is still going on. I know that not working isn’t an option for everyone but not spending is participating. That means don’t buy anything at all. Don’t pay your bills. Be willing to be punished and inconvenienced for the Palestinians.

Let’s walk through one minor contribution towards my screaming.

My partner bought a new car last January. Her loan was through her insurance company.

Fast forward to 2 weeks ago, someone rear ended her at a stop light and totalled her car.

No more musical episodes of shows, please. I don’t care what plot device you use to justify it or how much of the cast used to be in musical theater. It’s just an unoriginal and tired idea that is starting to get regurgitated over and over.

Feeling feisty today. Who wants to fight?

Managers making unexplainable decisions? Check.

Unresponsive property manager? Done.

I’ll just be here raging all day.
