Being an adult is eating dinner at the table even though you REALLY want to eat it on the couch because you’re trying to convince your nephew to eat properly so he doesn’t barf every night

Love this from Guillermo del Toro
“Be kind, be involved, believe in your art,” he said. “At a time when people tell you art is not important, that is always the prelude to fascism. When they tell you it doesn’t matter, when they tell you a fucking app can do art you say, if it’s that important, why the fuck do they want it so bad? The answer is because they think they can debase everything that makes us a little better, a little more human. And that, in my book, and in my life, includes monsters.”

Highly recommend just making your friends play a version of “Um actually” that’s just all about the things you love or things you found weird. They will love it.

Animals with misleading names. I'm seeing this go around as part of a viral tumblr thread so I thought I'd reshare it.
A comic called Animals with Misleading Names. There's an electric eel labeled "not an eel". There's a mountain goat labeled "not a goat." There's a maned wolf labeled "not a wolf." There's a king cobra labeled "not a cobra. Also, snakes are typically self-governing." There's a peacock mantis shrimp labeled "Not a peacock. Not a mantis. Also, not a shrimp." There's a horny toad labeled "Not a toad. Only thinks of you as a friend." There's a mayfly labeled "active through the spring and summer." There's an eastern kingbird labeled "found in the west. Many birds do not recognize its authority."

Old Soviet joke for today: A man walks into a newsstand every day, looks around, and leaves. After a long time of this, the owner says “Can I help you find something?” “I’m looking for the obituaries.” “The obituaries are in the back of the newspaper, comrade.” “Not the one I’m looking for.”

A little guy
A very, very small ceramic bird on a log. The bird is an off white clay with tiny black eyes and a beak. The frame is zoomed all the way out to exaggerate how tiny that bird is compared to the log.

I am slightly ashamed to admit that I did not purchase a single sticker specifically to put on this box: this is all stickers that were already waiting around to be put on things. Some for years. Yes I still have more. 😅

Whenever it’s not clear what kind of pot you’re taking a picture of, just put a spider plant baby in it #ceramics #pottery
Two hanging wall planters hung from black rope. They look a little like leather pouches; they are speckled yellow ceramic with black carvings. There are snake plants in them.

It’s all about her
A black cat stands amidst a collection of pottery pieces stacked on the floor. There is a wooden board and a piece of tree stump on the floor as well. A cell phone tripod is on the floor. There are beams of light coming from the top of the photo and the cat is looking up and to the right of the picture.

A picture of a small raccoon ceramic figurine holding two knives. It has a dark green fabric cloak wrapped around its shoulders.

Photo is informal: there is a bag, a pair of scissors, and a dog leash on the table with the figurine.

Me, every single time I’m sculpting an animal head: oh my god it looks so weird why does it look so weird Me, after putting ears on it: oh never mind it’s actually fine #sculpture #clay
Four small red clay figures in progress. They are tall, slim, conical bodies with fox heads. They have no eyes or noses yet; only one has ears.

Impossible to communicate to people that once you decide that a group more vulnerable than you can be sacrificed in the name of your own safety or interests that you have already entered into an tacit agreement that you can also be sacrificed in the interests of a group less vulnerable than you.
