nah this really ain’t it. people’s labor is being fed into a machine for value extraction on an unprecedented scale. work IS being stolen. this is *exactly* what marx is talking about in estranged labor (1844)

Political economy conceals
the estrangement inherent in the nature of labor by not considering the direct relationship between the worker (labor) and production. It is true that labor produces for the rich wonderful things - but for the worker it produces privation. It produces palaces - but for the worker, hovels. It produces beauty - but for the worker, deformity. Highlighted : It replaces labor by machines, but it throws one section of the workers back into barbarous types of labor and it turns the other section into a machine. (End highlighting).It produces intelligence - but for the worker, stupidity, cretinism.

now that i’m diabetic i’m really rediscovering the joy of soufflés extremely delicious and tons of protein and fats with very little carbs!! kind of my perfect food. lots of physical labor to make since i insist on beating my egg whites by hand but definitely worth it

A soufflé in a glass baking dish. The top is very evenly browned, and it has risen beautifully.

today’s studio work - trimming and pulling a handle for this little cup

got emotionally devastated at the fellow travelers performance at seattle opera yesterday but at least i looked cute for it

Mirror selfie. I’m a white Latine with dark shoulder-length curly hair, glasses, and facial hair. I’m wearing a bright pink leather color, a pink linen 18th century style shirt, and saddle brown paints held up by brown leather suspenders. There’s a chainmail bracelet on my left wrist.

another figure study of @downhillholla.bsky.social - this was my favorite of the batch (and hers as well)

Pencil sketch of a trans woman in repose, lying on her side propped up by her arms. Her hair is pulled up and her face is stern but soft. There’s a collar with a hefty buckle around her neck, and her arms frame her breasts, shaded softly. Her hips have a slight dip to them, and her thighs are squished together with her penis rendered somewhat indistinctly between them, as if it were an afterthought.

figure studies of a friend from last night - thank you @downhillholla.bsky.social for posing for me <3

Pencil sketch of the same woman, still seated but more reclined and with an open posture.

my favorite mug from the last round of glaze firings :3 i love the way this floating blue ended up interacting with the throwing rings #ceramics

A very round handmade mug, held aloft by the handle. It’s short and stout, and glazed in a floating blue that breaks to amber over the throwing rings on the outside of the body.

The opposite side of the same mug. Here the glaze doesn’t break as much, but the blue pigment has settled satisfyingly along the throwing rings

The mug tilted to reveal its interior. The settling of the floating blue glaze reveals a swirl in the center of the bottom.

this mug was the biggest surprise of the firing - the glaze came out matte and super opaque, there’s actually pink under the turquoise (not that you can see it)!

Hand holding a tall handmade mug with a tapered bottom. The mug is glazed in a teal shade, with a satin matte texture.

the first of my mugs from the previous round of firings. this glaze combination was a nightmare to work with, and i could tell it was going to be problematic before the firing; but i didn’t expect the huge, inexplicable bare patch, nor the extremely smooth matte finish.

Hand holding a yellow-brown handmade mug. It has a remarkably curved form, like the bottom half of a gourd. The glaze has a smooth, matte texture with the occasional speck of warmer rust-colored pigment.

The other side of the same mug, revealing a much more dramatic surface with more speckling and running of pigment, as well as a large bare patch on the outside where glaze refused to stay.

Mug tilted towards the camera to reveal its insides, which has a smooth and even finish and a well-defined transition between the bottom and the walls.

Another view, emphasizing the curved form of the mug and its flared out rim.

my second-ever mug finally made it out of the kiln! it’s so cool to see these first few forms i threw finally becoming functional objects #ceramics #pottery

A handmade mug. It’s wide, with a curved pulled handle, and a slightly uneven rim betrays the maker’s inexperience with trimming. The top half of the mug has walls that bow out ever so slightly, while the bottom half tapers inward at a fairly straight angle. The foot and rim reveal the plain off-white clay body, while the rest of the mug is coated in pink glaze with a light blue layered over top, reminiscent of the colors of the trans flag.

glazed. there were a few mistakes made, but these vessels are still usable i’ve been really enjoying ceramics - it’s an entirely different realm of working with my hands, but the tasks are satisfying and peaceful. my friends are going to be getting so many mugs soon #ceramics
