It might’ve taken me 25 years, but look at this #wood-fired #pottery *mug I made

Kiln at 400c - so took a selfie holding fuel. Super-awesome fire jacket is a gift from my neighbor.

I’m firing a glaze fire today. My lovely wife got up with me at 5am to sit by a slow kindle flame. I’m using larger chunks of rotten wood to help keep the temperature low and slow baby. Also, probably mostly post on instagram. www.instagram.com/p/Dc_R0h7Gyd...

Here are my kiln plans. Keep in mind, I consider myself a beginner. I know just enough to be dangerous. So far, the only changes I would have made is to insulate the chimney to the height of the kiln - that would have improved the draft. Also, hard bricks on the roof above the inlet flues.

Too hot! Ended at 06 instead of 08, but I’m okay with that. Proved my kiln works, and free fuel to boot!

It’s been a few hours. My biggest struggle is exhibiting patients to go slow enough. I’m trying to go slowly so my pots don’t explode, but it’s fun to make the fire burn hot.

I live in a small town on an island in Alaska. The only way things get here is freight, often on pallets. I built a wood pottery kiln ln, in part, to take advantage of this free fuel resource. I can rust the nails down to get iron oxide. I’m about to ignite the kiln for the first time. 🤞

Art of the ancient Americas may not be your thing, but you have to love this earthenware crab vessel. I'm sorry, I don't make the rules. 🦀 This is going into our imaginary museum replica store, pronto. #LACMA Colombia, Calima style, Ilama period, ca. 1500 BCE-100 CE. 🏺 1/ 📸 me
Earthenware crab vessel with two spouts flanking a round handle on its back. It's painted a reddish-orange color and its stumpy claws are closed in front of its cute little face. It's standing up on its six non-claw legs, which are also stumpy. Insanely adorable.

Is it possible the files area test to see if he has enough corruption in place to get away with anything? Like, a bully is daring us to fight to prove his dominance. Between the victims’ testimonies and even these redacted files - has to be enough to prosecute; hell, to revolt! And yet….

I didn’t verify this. I have no idea if it’s real or not. But it’s not just a single outlier, there are many such accusations . So until somebody proves otherwise I’m gonna believe it’s true. www.instagram.com/reel/DUZ_k4a...

I would love it if somebody could help me understand. What’s the constitution in the Bill of Rights for? Is the government bound to it in anyway? Because it seems like it’s optional, which goes against my understanding. Further, can the Supreme Court just negate everything in it?

I’ve been boycotting Walmart since the late 90s. I’ve quit all social medias, except Instagram (because my kids forced me to use it) and Bluesky & rednote. I go without or spend more to avoid supporting corporations. Yet, they all still exist and are still doing evil. It only works if we all do it.

I wonder instead of following ice around with whistles, we turned that energy to the billionaire class. I feel like if we attacked them with the same ferocity, we’d probably see more change. It’s just a thought, might be wrong. I don’t know.

As I read this book, #Ordinarymen, I question again and again the stay peaceful rhetoric. I think we probably should be doing the opposite at this point. I also wonder if anyone who votes Republican reads at all.

I just saw a video where they broke it down to $90,000 per ice deportation. Imagine if we had just given the immigrants that money instead, the difference it would’ve made. www.tiktok.com/t/ZThSkvvcd/

Question for those smarter and more educated myself. Is fascism inevitable in a tolerant society? Just keeps cropping up, like wack-a-mole.

Well, I’m glad they got their TV show back. It’s not really a victory. They do this. They release the pressure just a little bit. We still have fascism. The fascists in power still fester like cancer. History shows us how to deal with fascism.

I’m adjusting to my new #pottery studio. I’m proud of this innovation, my #spider escape. It prevents my water settling bucket from collecting dead bugs, as they can find their way out. It’s a nylon strap, so it shouldn’t rot.

When I was a teen, I killed my first deer. It was with a bolt action Mauser rifle at about 150ish yards, open sight. It was a clean headshot. I was aiming for the center mass of the body. Luck is a factor.

Another opinion that we’re dealing with a cult. Also, it reminds me of Sam Harris‘s work on religious extremism; how it can only exist because of religious moderates. Rational Republicans allow QAnon cults to exist because they refuse to turn against the party. www.justsecurity.org/72339/qanon-...
