Hello new and old friends! I make things, usually in ceramic or on paper, sometimes a mix of the two!
I love:
Fossil hunting, making things, mending things, encouraging creativity and curiosity, and listening to audiobooks. Always taking recommendations 🥰

The Paleontological Research Institution in Ithaca, NY, has been in financial trouble for a while. I'm biased because I currently have my life-size giant snail and clam on display, but they're a bunch of great people doing great work.

Anyone else might want to contribute work to fundraise for PRI? If someone is willing to coordinate and run the auction, i will certainly spread the call to all my #sciart friends 🥰
I wonder if a group art for PRI auction could be set up? I have some paleo quilting I’d donate!

I feel compelled to try to help in what ways I can to donate to the sustained survival of the Paleontological Research Institution. Would people be interested in an art auction for a print from my private collection that I would otherwise not be selling to the public?

Even if the House was fully functional, they're in session for an avg of 147 days and out for 218.

Under Speaker Johnson, Congress has been in session only 12 of the last 97 days, and he still won't swear in Representative-elect Adelita Grijalva.

These are the people who demand Work Requirements.😐

You all, don't spend even ten seconds of your precious life browsing Grokipedia.

Nothing good will come of it.

Your attention adds value to something of no value.

I get that the news cycle is packed right now, but I just heard from a colleague at the Smithsonian that this is fully a GIANT SQUID BEING EATEN BY A SPERM WHALE and it’s possibly the first ever confirmed video according to a friend at NOAA

Funny story, I bought 100 extra of these pins with the intention to sell them to those that may have missed preorder, only to for my ADHD brain to LOSE THEM somewhere in my international chaos whirlwind.

Hoping I find them this week as I reorganize 🫠
My signed edition of @caitlinstarling.com's Starving Saints has arrived in the UK, along with the book launch enamel pin by @missdaisydee.bsky.social and I'm in the best mood. Can't stop smiling.

I really loved this book. Also, every book should come with a pin.

Been busy establishing an artist residency situation here in Taiwan. But i’ve had a little time for art, mainly creating little creative feedback loops with my grandma and her brilliant drawings ❤️ #printmaking #stampcarving #penguins

This is my most confrontational post of the day: please watch Armond’s video & think on it.

It isn’t at all progressive or leftist to spread disabling disease in an ongoing pandemic. There are more Armonds than you know, & folks who don’t mask are making more each day bc most spread is asymptomatic

Extremely dark that the entire U.S. government is lying down to be steamrolled by something called the Trump agenda for fear of some force called "Donald Trump" while the actual Donald Trump has no idea what's happening
Helluva @notusreports.bsky.social scoop showing that Trump has no idea what's in his budget bill. Seems like something that ought to get a lot more attention.

Also this: a republican house member actually admits that they are attacking medicaid. Yes, they are.

Local folks: check the locations listed to see if you were possibly exposed to measles and call your health care provider if you have questions.

I know i am SO late to the game, but saw #Sinners today and it will probably be my favorite film for this year! The insane layers of details, visual gags, depth of character, history, story, and soul. Just so masterfully crafted, and a perfect blend of action, comedy, horror & drama. 🤯
