I started hand building this week. This was my first try at making pinch pots. I made a salt pig, a bowl, a spoon and a little jar with a lid? It's much more relaxing than wheel! Hit me with all of your hand building tips!

I do almost all my reading via audiobook because the amount of time I am available for uninterrupted holding and staring is much less than the amount of time I am available for listening
audiobooks are great and count as reading!! if you don't like visual books or have a schedule that makes them difficult, read an audiobook!
i am fully prepared to blame this on that thing where for decades anglo kids haven't been taught to read properly; to which the immediate fix would be to turn many more people onto audiobooks

"In the criminal justice system, sandwich based offenses are considered especially heinous. In Washington DC, the dedicated detectives who investigate these vicious felonies are members of an elite squad known as the Sandwich Victims Unit. These are their stories.

I'm so happy about how the red underglaze in the hearts turned out. It was fired at cone 10, protected by a few layers of clear glaze.

This is what I can throw on the wheel after about 75 *hours* of practice, over the span of a year. Improving a skill is hard, but it's rewarding. Slow progress is still progress. I'm really starting to enjoy pottery, now that I can center the clay 😂

No, Mr. Trump. We won't allow you to pay for tax breaks to billionaires by eliminating Head Start which provides early education to over 800,000 children and LIHEAP that keeps seniors and families warm in the winter.
Your budget proposal is morally obscene. It must be defeated.

I've been making pottery on the wheel to deal with my stress in these Trying Times. I'm not very good at it, but that's okay. This was probably my 50th try. It's somewhat symmetrical and I managed to trim a foot(base). Slow progress is still progress, right?

Does it drive you nuts when kids mix the playdough colors? Just call it "tie-dye" playdough and it's fine.

For the first time in 10 years, a child has died from measles in the United States.
Vaccines prevent measles.
Americans need to hear our top health officials say clearly: every child in America should get vaccinated against this terrible disease.

I've always thought a Prion disease would be what gets us in the end. But there's also a new mystery hemorrhagic disease. And that super strain of TB. The writers went all out for this final season.
