I made my friend a blanket for Christmas! I can see a lot of issues with it, and now I never want to knit a blanket again, but it was my first attempt to make something striped.

To all the young people in New York and across our country who count on gender-affirming care: I won't let this administration come for you, your doctors, or your lifesaving health care.  Your health care is still legal and protected.  I'll always fight for you.

I made a hat! The Rock Cap by Veronica Wilson, with Quince & Co's Osprey yarn in "honey" color. #fiberarts #knitting #quinceandco #beanie

Struggling to get into the studio lately due to being sick and tired, took up knitting instead.

Little WIP from my last dip into the studio. #ceramics #sculpture #clay #art #queerart #sapphicart #sapphicceramics #queerceramics #fatart #fatceramics

Happy Trombone Tuesday from this painting of the exact moment she decided to ask Worf if he had any dinner plans

Presenting the BRAND-NEW season - @dimension20.bsky.social On a Bus! 🚌 DM'd by Katie Marovitch, and as players: Aabria Iyengar, Brennan Lee Mulligan, Jasmine Bhullar, and Mark Mercer!

I'd planned to make flowers to attach to this vase, but she'd dried too much by the time I got back to her. So, carving it is! #ceramics #sculpture #figurestudy #queerart #sapphicart

Mermaid is nearly ready for bisque firing! FINALLY. I love her belly and hair 🥰 #ceramics #sculpture #mermaid #mermaidart #queerart #sapphicart #hollowingthisoutwassoscary

America is beautiful, contradictory, unfinished. I am proud of our country even as we constantly strive to make it better, to protect and deepen our democracy, to fulfill its promise for each and every person who calls it home. Happy Independence Day. No Kings in America.

“I know you think you’re being funny, but honestly Dave, it’s just hurtful.”

She has a head now!! Gotta wait for the clay to dry enough to trust the head will stay on, tho... #mermaid #ceramics #art #sculpture #queerart #sapphicart #laguna #b3brown

So proud to be a part of this amazing morning. Location ocean beach San Francisco #nokings

Trying something new? She's not nearly done yet, still got a lot of work to do but I needed to let her dry enough to be able to work on other stuff without worrying about breaking her 😂 #sculpture #mermaid #ceramics #queerart #sapphicart

Different angle on the vase because the color wasn't picking up well in the previous pictures.

This might be my favorite thing I've ever made, which is hilarious bc it took months for me to glaze it bc I hated it. #ceramics #pottery #clay #laguna #torso #figurestudy #femmebodies #feminine #queerart #sapphicart

Finally got some glaze on a piece I finished like.... Months ago lol. #ceramic #figurestudy #queerart #sapphicart

Forgot to post these when I did it but I got some underglaze on her. #underglaze #ceramics #sculpture #figurestudy #femme #queerart #sapphicart

Look at herrrr omg 🥰🥰🥰 #osprey #newenglandraptors #newenglandbirds #birdwatching

Today I got to see an osprey couple, and watch one of them eat 🥰 #birdwatching #osprey #newenglandbirds #newenglandraptors

finally got back into the studio for a minute to finish up this little lady. #ceramics #sculpture #figurestudy #art #queerart #sapphicart

anyone, really. i get that it isn't enough. i get that universal healthcare would be better. but it is what keeps me afloat. me and my little brother would both be FUCKED without it (me with bipolar 1 and him with childhood cancer) and yes we should do better but also yes we have to do what we can

really wanted to be in the studio this weekend but between life shit and getting really sick it's a no go :( hopefully next week!

I guess it’s time to bring back my science and medicine jewelry *with a clear message* line. So here we go! In my etsy shop. Custom colors available! Great conversation starters! #sciart Surly.etsy.com 🧪

Welp, mamuta is back on etsy! (I swear I didn't mean to make the sleeves so big) #pikmin www.etsy.com/listing/8451...

Bernie Sanders: "I think this is a prelude not only to cutting benefits, but to privatizing Social Security ... why do you lie so much about Social Security? Why do you make it look like it's a broken system? The reason is to get people to lose faith in the system so you can give it over to Wall St"

🍄 gnbsky stay safe, sleep well, be kind.

More progress on this sitting babe. #ceramics #sculpture #figurestudy #queerart #sapphicart

if you've had an NIH grant terminated, I want to hear about it. Signal: katherinejwu.12

Any time you see an article frame something as "took action against transgender sports," do more digging. 75% of the time, whatever they are talking about also bans trans people from bathrooms/medical care/targets trans adults. Sports is just a way to frame it as morally acceptable.

Today at the “Stand up for Science” demonstration at the Lincoln Memorial.

Finally got back into the pottery studio for a bit. Gonna work on these more over the weekend. Got a figure started, and smooshed up some cones for making dragon heads. The clay was a little too soft tonight - hoping it's more workable tomorrow. #clay #ceramics #sculpture #queerart #art #sapphicart

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Criminalizing protest is a hallmark of authoritarian regimes

Alina Habba on veterans who have been fired from government jobs: "Perhaps they're not fit to have a job at this moment."

Freeland: "If these tariffs are put in place, it is going to hurt Americans ... your grocery prices are gonna go up, bc you know what you need to grow food in the US? You need fertilizer. 80% of it comes from Canada and you're gonna be a 25% tax on it? ... the WSJ is right. This is dumb."

Agreed with Gillian here. If you called your Senator (or didn't) to tell them to vote against a trans sports ban, it's important that you also call them and thank them for their vote. NO Democrat broke on this. myreps.datamade.us

Good news for once 🥳

This was the towel creature from day one of the cruise. I don't know which animal it is supposed to be but it looks like the full interior and exterior anatomy of the human clitoris to me.

Maybe dem reps could hold their own state of the union on the Capitol steps. Steal the spotlight. Let members like AOC, Jasmine Crockett, Max Frost, and the DNC make remarks. Norms don't exist. Buck them.

Today, the Governor of Iowa signed a bill removing gender identity as a protected class in state law, the first time any state has removed a protected class in our country’s history. Trans youth in Iowa: I know you’re scared, but I want you to know that many people love you as you are.

"History will remember this day— when an American President and Vice President abandoned all we stand for."

Next year, the EU will require cars to have buttons & dials -- not just touchscreens -- to get a top safety rating. This is a great move. Drivers can fiddle with knobs & buttons without taking their eyes off the road, but they can't do that with touchscreens. (Even better: Tesla will hate this)

I am usually in this camp but I am interested in today’s experiment and what happens if it becomes a regular activity

-This can be the beginning to so many towards less thoughtless consumption -it can help people towards incorporating things like the BDS list into their everyday life -this can help people figure out viable alternatives to what feels like inevitable use of Big Company sites It's not zero sum y'all

Per Dr Atul Gawande, ex USAID: “All malaria supplies protecting 53 million people, mostly children, including bed nets, diagnostics, preventive drugs, and treatments – terminated.” There are no words that sufficiently describe this level of cruelty and sadism.

everyone seeing how when you takeaway the DEI the planes start falling out of the sky

They’re cutting Medicaid
