i guess i will walk to the furry convention today simply because i can

still a lil bummed I didn’t have the opportunity to vend this wknd but I sure did sleep in today, go work on personal projects at the ceramics studio, and then just … decide to show up to wave at my friends and then leave at my leisure :) Just filling my cup in other ways these days and that’s ok!

oooh my birthday with my friends was so funnnnn. special homemade cookies, touching clay with a cool pal, and getting rly bad heartburn from Malort :)) i really appreciate folks showing up to spend time even though I am 102 years old!!

it is my special day.

made a new friend at the studio last night, who also happens to be my new upstairs neighbor, who also happens to share mutuals with me, because of course they do. building community is COOL and i like tripping on unexpected connections haha. Thank You, Clay And Ceramics 🥂

Grey Coyote mask crafted as a gift to someone in 2016 - it subsequently disappeared forever with its recipient :*) more masks @ mercurypale.com - no commissions ever sorry. on indefinite hiatus from making these but found this photo and realized I never shared, i still like it. #art #mask #coyote

I saw my friends this week

Hey PDX! This summer I am teaching ceramics classes on how to make your own little guys! I make ceramics for fun in between making fursuits and it would be fun to share it with you too!! Let’s hang out and make stuff! (out of your budget? help available, DM me) artschoolpdx.as.me/schedule/e59...

my two mugs I’ve made I’m a complicated guy I guess #ceramics

all dressed up and nowhere to go underglaze and clear glaze, speckled buff clay body #ceramics

concept of alignment re: relationships (platonic/romantic) sometimes shit just doesn't line up. it isn't anyones fault, nobody doing anything wrong, you just arent on the same plane of existence and thats ok. learning what i value, what my needs are, and what nourishes me builds better relationships

my periodic reminder to myself, and maybe you too - there are infinite versions of You out there. every person you interact with crafts their own, no matter the duration of the interaction. they may not all be truthful or flattering, but its unethical and unreasonable to try to change any of them.

hey, exciting news local PDX friends! I’ll be teaching some classes this summer at my pottery studio where you can come touch clay and craft your own LITTLE GUY! Dates are pending but I we’ll have a few sessions. I’ll share more info soon! #ceramics

Little blue fox, I like this glaze. #ceramics

I planned for a year of cool events with neat stuff and ceramics to share at cons but it doesn’t look like I’ll be accepted to a single event I applied for, haha … so I think I’ll be moving all my stuff online! Anything you’d be most excited for? I have so many ceramics in the works, phew

The ultimate desire.

You n who?

cat4cat. let’s parallel play and only speak 5 words to eachother the whole time. let’s have tea outside. let’s sit on the same couch together. let’s shirk a crowded room to have a really quiet conversation elsewhere. let’s enjoy the intimacy of just being present in eachothers company. 🐈 🐈‍⬛ 🐈 🐈‍⬛ 🐈 🐈‍⬛

“cat energy” is real - be a cat, find the people in the room who you like, figure out how to get your needs met, listen to your gut and act accordingly! been good stuff to keep in mind while i try to socially recalibrate as a crusty unc. like me or don’t like me! cat finds its people (or doesn’t!) 🐈‍⬛

coyote day me (sometimes) urban OR rural :)

Happy new year 2026

I found a yanked flower bud on a stem on the sidewalk here a few weeks ago, brought it home and put it in water with some plant food and was rewarded with this awesome lily
