All of Baltimore is gonna disown me for this, but I have held the belief for a few years now, that they fell to this reality through a rift in space time and are not supposed to be here. Unfortunately, their trans dimensional aura is why so many people love them, but I just find it off-putting

I was up before sunrise but the clouds comet-blocked me from viewing the Leonids 😤 Luckily I remembered that there are other more common but just as stunning celestial events that occur EVERY DAMN DAY

Come see me Sunday 11/23 from 12-5pm at the Greater Goods Market in the R House Garage. I made all these new things and more!

Jade pendant in the shape of a silkworm, China, c. 10th century BCE, from Met Museum collection www.metmuseum.org/art/collecti...

Programmed my kiln to slow cool after this glaze firing to try to keep this problem glaze from crazing. I am not a test tile girlie but depending on how this turns out I might convert. My grandfather was a gambler and a very good one I think this is why I love ceramics

I hope all my friends know that they are precious to me and that I am willing to bite anyone who harms them

New York Times retire bitch

It's almost this time of year.

New mug shape! An accidental painting on a bowl mold!

I hope you’re all having a very pleasant Dick Cheney is dead

Workin on a sculpture- it’s a real freak

And the blue jays are one number away from Reno Dakota blue

New slabs in the works 🤗

Everyone is always like “oh you’re from Baltimore, is it like The Wire” but what they don’t get is that The Wire grossly underrepresented how many people in this city know how to walk on stilts

I just finished writing a paper I have due tomorrow, so I think I’ll eat a little package of fruit snacks about it

food banks have already been under pressure over the past several years, and with SNAP benefits expiring they're going to be the only safety net for a lot of people please donate what you can. $100 can feed several families for a month because of the discounts and purchasing power they have

Since quitting my job to go back to school I have 1. Replaced the igniter on my oven myself 2. Found someone on FB marketplace to haul off my fallen treehouse for free (he wanted the lumber) 3. Ordered a replacement bulb for my rear left turn signal

I saw @rahnealexander.com’s performance yesterday and I felt my my face gradually become wet with tears before being aware of the emotions I was feeling. Wild how my body led the way. After, everyone hugged and hugged over and over. What an incredible performance, to have that effect on the crowd.

And just like that the trees sound swishy when the wind blows

A text I just received from a happy customer

Sometimes I go to the lake and sing songs to the lake about the lake

Next Sunday, 19 October, 3-6pm I'm doing a performance, part of BACK EAST at Current Space I've been planning this one a long time, and I'm only gonna do it once Decidedly "not safe for work" — no video recording! DJ Ducky Dynamo will provide music for your pleasure before and after

Reading a parenting guide for academics

lol grey flame has a gentleman persona at home but when he’s out on the town ALL BETS OFF

Just got an email on my website contact form that was from a neighbor who erroneously received a package addressed to me- so I walked down to get it and friends, it was GREY FLAME’S HOUSE. He was standing at the door with a little collar on and he looked so FORMAL

And on falls rd

Forgot to show you these things I saw on my walks recently

There’s a new issue of @baltimorebeat.bsky.social out today!

Something I think about a lot is how many people gleefully kill lantern flies when given permission to do so- a contemporary micro Milgram experiment for the tree huggers out there

Britney: You want a Lamborghini? Sip martinis? Me: No B: Look hot in a bikini? Me: Not really B: You better work, bitch Me: Um… B: You wanna live fancy? Live in a big mansion? Me: Nope B: Party in France? Me: Look, B: You better work, bitch, you better work, bitch Me: 🗣️ NOW GET TO WORK BITCH

Don’t talk to me until I’ve had my four hours of productive time alone in the studio 😤

S/o to @leegee.bsky.social for saying hi in person the other day! I love my internet friends !!!

The moon over herring run

Happy Ctenophore Day! 🐙🦑🧪

Now that it’s October I’m thinking about her

Oh man my Granny LOVED Hyacinth 😭

I asked Siri to take down this important message from me at 4am last night

Guys!

Re-reading @lisasnowden.bsky.social’s piece on Turner Station she wrote in 2017 for The City Paper (RIP) and crying a little bit (This is more research related to Dr. Lucille Venture who taught residents of Turner Station in the 40s-60s.)
