Royal Mail lost a handmade clay item I posted via recorded delivery, spent two months investigating, then compensated me with ยฃ13 worth of stamps and a letter saying, โI hope you are happy with the outcome.โ Reader, I was not. ๐ฎ

A handmade resin turtle and sea-themed coaster.
I made this little resin turtle with shell fragments and semi-precious stones, and Iโm quite pleased with how it turned out. I also made a sea-themed coaster using resin and black sand. Iโve been finding crafting really helpful for unwinding lately. #crafting #resin

Yes, itโs really enjoyable to make these clay pieces, and I often make them for friends and family. I find making personalised gifts makes me feel more connected in some ways to the people I make the gifts for.

Another line of theory/evidence on this: MOHO influenced in part by Drew Lederโs The Absent Body, who was influenced in turn by Merleau-Pontyโs Phenomenology of Perception. He construed the body as an โI canโ, when things are going smoothly, in absence of illness or disability. Goes back to Husserl.

27.11.2025 21:39 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0Celebrating achievements is wonderful, of course, but when interactions revolve mainly around sharing successes on such platforms, I think social media can start to feel a bit surface-level -where people seem connected without really engaging with one another on a more human level.
