Why yes, I made some warty pumpkins 😂 Soda fired! No glaze on these babes at all. Warts are porcelain, pumpkins are Helmer's wood fire with slips.

An orange and gray ceramic pumpkin sits on a wooden table.

Four pumpkins in various sizes in shades of orange, brown, yellow, and gray (but mostly gray) sit on a wooden table.

This is seismic news for fisheries scientists. Northern cod is *the* iconic symbol of total fisheries collapse due to overfishing (and other factors) *and* the iconic symbol of a complete failure to recover for decades afterwards. This is like announcing the complete recovery of bison on land.

HOLY SHIT DUDES fucking with the environment is now not just a sin (which Francis also said), it is classed as a direct fuck-you to God and a central tenet of the reasoning is the need to care for "our common home," i.e. you are morally obligated to think about the other people who also live here
