I raised $25 in my pottery sale yesterday for relief efforts with the earthquake in #myanmar - i matched that and donated it to the International Rescue Committee. www.rescue.org

Held another informal "pot sale for charity" in front of my house, this time to benefit victims of the earthquake in Myanmar and Thailand. #charity #ceramics #myanmar #earthquake

These two pots are siblings of the green and blue one from several days ago. #ceramic #bowl #wheelthrown #bigpots thrown at @mudclaystudio.bsky.social in Montclair!

NEXT WEEK: There’s an important election that will impact the midterms and 2028. Elon Musk is trying to buy a seat on the Wisconsin Supreme Court and end the liberal majority in this battleground state. Early voting is here, so help us GOTV for @crawfordforwi.bsky.social: mobilize.us/indivisible/...

Do not let the world look away. Keep fighting, keep telling our stories—until Palestine is free." - For the last time, Hossam Shabat, from northern Gaza. 23 and he knew to leave a death note.

this is me in my happy place

Netanyahu has not allowed any food, water, or fuel into Gaza in two weeks. Now he has resumed bombing, killing hundreds of people and breaking the ceasefire that had given Gaza a chance to live again. NO MORE MILITARY AID TO ISRAEL.

This will be a disaster. They'll refuse to cover it on Fox News, I bet! But its effects will be felt just as much by folks who voted for Trump as by everyone else and they will start finding out what that vote let us all in for.

I don't usually post unfinished things, but I am so proud of this pot that I put together today. On Friday I threw the bottom piece from 4 lbs, the middle from 3, and the top from 2. Today I assembled them, slowly and carefully! #pottery #ceramics #amphora (to be) made at @mudclaystudio.bsky.social

we went to The Cloisters today. foggy, gray but temperature weather perfectly matched the vibe. I always take pics of textures #cloisters #thecloisters

Someone clever did this to a lamppost on Coverdale road and now I am disappointed that every lamppost doesn’t have one

If you’re protesting this weekend, know your rights.

This is a fantastic post.

I'm not just a potter! :D I just finished spinning and plying this skein, 550 yds of DK weight 100% merino wool. Spun from #malabrigo #nube spinning fiber, in color "Petrichor" #handspun #yarn #merino #spinning

here's part 2, this whole series is awesome! this one explains, well, the second part of the story:

Dicks Sporting Goods is one of the good guys! 🏆

Damn it, Nellie Pou, what are you thinking?!

Got any plans for next Friday? Cancel them and do this instead, we need you. ❤️🇺🇸

Musk has now poured $8.3 million into buying the tie-breaking Wisconsin Supreme Court seat for Brad Schimel. That is vastly more than any other single donor—to eliminate a state-level check on his and Trump's power. Help us fight back and elect Susan Crawford: PeopleVMusk.com

Just FYI, Tom argued for universal welfare, abolition, public education, state-sponsored pre/post-natal care, family subsidies, & retirement for workers at 50 w/state pensions that would double at 60. He also considered the American revolution a failure, co-opted by self-serving, landowning elites.

wyd if you come home to this

First "big" bowl back from the kiln. Studio dip (IYKYK): Sea Mist inside & out with Sapphire on rim. I love what happened in the base inside! #pottery #ceramics #handmade made at @mudclaystudio.bsky.social in Montclair NJ

@basel.bsky.social @matthewstoller.bsky.social as you may be aware, #joannfabrics is closing its doors. I'm wondering what the story was there. did private equity ruin this? or was it simple crappy management?

another new vase back from the kiln. Amoco Shino Oolong Matte (x4!) on the outside to highlight carved texture. #pottery #ceramics #handmade made at @mudclaystudio.bsky.social in Montclair NJ
