Amid these dark moments, something important is beginning to shift.

It's clearly the result of healthy political pressure - which we must sustain, and build.

Forever

Rescue babies are the sweetest 😍

Thank you!

I almost died from #Covid in '21 (vent for over 30 days) then had brain surgery for a #meningioma in '23. I work from home and don't get out much so this little guy has really brightened my days. He deserves the world!

We have an estimate for surgery from #virginiatech but it may as well be a million dollars at this point. It feels just as unattainable. But this sweet boy deserves it! He's only 3 yrs old. He's been with us since Sep '23 and has been just what the doctor ordered after everything we've been thru 🧵/2

This is the Dood that needs surgery. He's a rescue mini goldendoodle tripawd. We don't know the history of the missing leg but it appears to be trauma because his tail is docked at the exact same place as the leg. Now he has hip dysplasia in his good leg and needs a total hip replacement. 🧵

I need to give that a try... Maybe I can manifest my pup a new hip. My flabbers are still ghasted by the estimate. 💸💸💸

Thank you. He's a Rescue tripawd mini doodle and needs a hip replacement on his remaining back leg. 😭 It's extremely expensive so we are looking for grants and anything we can find.

That's great news! 🥳

I posted last week and ran from socials for a bit! I have visited Maine once and it just happened to be during a heat wave, over 100° every day I was there!
I think I found another local studio to join. 🤞 They have space.

The last week has sucked... From learning the pottery studio is closing to my pup needing major surgery. I almost skipped my pottery session tonight over it...
I'm glad I didn't. Now I have this fun #wip !

Thank you. ❤️

Sending you all the good vibes that the rental works out! I'm more sad about losing my Wed night community than the studio access. We will all scatter to the wind.

Well ... Pottery has been holding me together and now my studio is closing.
Great.

Me too, @hankgreen.bsky.social , me too.

Stoneware mini comic book cover of the Amazing Spider-Man. It says Marvel and 5¢ in the top left and features Spider-Man slinging web from his left hand. At the bottom left, there's a comic effect bubble that says THWAP!! and a speech bubble above Spidey's head that says Wahoo!!. The colors are muted giving a vintage comic book feel.

Finally made it back to pottery on this 70°F day after 2 weeks of cancellations for icy weather. This was waiting for me out of the kiln

Thank you for sharing this. I haven't touched my own cello since Covid ... Fatigue, dizziness, brain fog. I'm so afraid of dropping my 150+ yr old instrument.

Is this really what y’all voted for? 🫤 💰

Measles high infection rate is the reason we have not yet been able to eradicate it. That rate means you need a very high vaccination rate to prevent outbreaks. It is possible, but not with current levels of institutional distrust.

This is beautiful!

5yo: Can I have a cookie?

Me: The rule is no treats before dinner

5: I'm taking a cookie

Me: You know you aren't allowed.

5: *climbing on a chair and taking a handful of cookies*

Me: That's literally against the rules!

5: *munching on a mouthful of cookies*

This post isn't about cookies.

When tyranny becomes law, rebellion becomes duty.

Feeling powerless or helpless? Here are things you can do to take positive action (suggested by a wise friend): 🧵

👉Get or renew your passport
👉Donate to your local food bank
👉Buy a banned book from a local bookstore
