Current status: Cone 06 bisque firing to finish up some underglaze work and fire a couple of bigger pieces that didn't make it into the last kilnload. This should finish in a couple of hours and I'll unload tomorrow. Next up: A whole bunch of glazing, and hopefully a glaze firing next weekend.

There's strong evidence that women's participation in security efforts makes countries safer. That's why leaders in over 100 countries have taken action to further it. One of them—who signed the U.S. Women, Peace & Security Act into law in 2017—was Donald Trump.

With all sincerity, Elections Canada is a national treasure. - Voting typically takes less than 15 minutes - We make it easy for citizens to vote, without cumbersome registration hurdles - We have every reason to trust that ballots will be counted fairly, and results reported swiftly

I'm currently reading a novel that flips between like 3 different timelines, all close in time but with distinct differences. I read 5-10 pages a night as I'm falling asleep. I am so, so confused.

Heads up book nerds...I took advantage of an earlier version of this deal and the books are brilliant and his Substack is a delight.

Ngl, the "discover" algo here is slightly bonkers. For whatever reason apparently I am a hardcore soccer fan today. (I am not.)

Playing with some pot decorating ideas. This is underglaze wash over wax resist brushwork. When glazed and fired these colours will be much darker and the brushwork will be bright white (there's food colouring in the wax, but that burns out entirely). I really enjoy this process.

This might fly under the radar in the initial coverage of the Liberal platform, but seems relevant to the larger discussion about Canada's response to events in the United States. The Liberals are attaching $25 million per year over the next four years to this promise.

Karina Gould 🇨🇦 - #cdnpoli When someone tells you who they are, believe them. The Federal Govt should not use the Notwithstanding Clause. Here are my thoughts from last year. We can see what's happening in the US when a President disregards the courts, don't let them happen here in Canada.

"The notwithstanding clause must not be used to entrench human rights violations. If we’re not vigilant, there’s no guarantee that the notwithstanding clause won’t be invoked to undermine women’s rights to choose, for example." #cdnpoli #pierrepoilievre #markcarney amnesty.ca/human-rights...
