Tbh I still think dawn powerwash is kind of fucked up. Doesn’t seem like a product that should be available outside some kind of hoarding-remediation scenario

Freaking myself out imagining a Type Of Guy that listens to podcasts while throwing on the pottery wheel

A strong wind just ripped through my office blowing all my papers off my desk so I guess it’s time to go home

In the brush beneath a Mission Bay overpass, two coyotes break into song as a Caltrain barrels past. Their duet — equal parts whimper, howl and bark — rises and falls in chorus with the horn of the train.

Could be fun to start quote-posting ppl with “🗣️💳” when they say some dumb shit

It’s hard to go rhizomatic when you are downstream on a globally interlinked and imperialistically dependent supply chain, despite what people say about the streets finding uses for things

All other sodium silicate work looks like garbage to me since seeing this artists work

I like that Evite has transitioned from “site your aunt uses to send you an animated gif of flowers” to “canary to let you know when someone you briefly emailed with 10 years ago has been hacked in some way”

Today’s earworm is an absolute infectious disco boogie banger from Randy Muller and Skyy it’s “Here’s to You” from 1980! With the 12” US promo being kinda obscure i keep a pair of the 45’s in the bag for all occasions (might even hear it tonight at Fanboy!) youtu.be/Aw5z5ie8bZM

Well if the employment numbers are so good how come my enemies have not yet been laid low

Last night: Pasadena. Tonight: Long Beach. Is the U.S. Military practicing for night raids in Havana or are they just tormenting the civilian population of a “rebel” city?

I love it when a vehicle recall hits the NHTSA system saying “do not drive this vehicle till recall repairs are complete” and then you call the dealership and they say “yeah we have no record of that recall, call us back in a week”

getting really high every day is basically like being a shaolin monk

Wow, it looks like the collapse of Institutional Revolution Today (IRT - Center/Brownist) is leaving the floor clear for Everybody Movement (Center/Bay Area) to become the largest party. It's unclear whether they'll work with Not Me Us (NMU - left/Bay Area) or Accelerate! (Right/LA + VC)

oh good. within 6 months 65% of you will be barking mad with folie a deux

This sweet shy feral is mostly deaf and blind as far as I can tell, but he’s found a good spot in our parking lot

biting into a live wire and having assorted visions

accidentally heard an old grimes song just as the perfect spring breeze came in through the window and i had the most visceral sense memory of being 20-something with a marlboro menthol in one hand and a four loko in the other and now my tummy hurts.

The mechanical bull, while thrilling, is conceptually incomplete. A more perfect version would throw you through a windshield

It’s fucked up I have to go to work all day instead of the pottery studio. I’m gonna have arthritis by the time I retire and have the time to do this as much as I’d like

Another big #porcelain bowl
