Spent more time with vitreous enamel this weekend. 🩶

Love Weyward! 💚💚💚

I’ hoping to also start a project from Nicole Ringold’s book that uses fusing as a method! I’ve not tried it before.🩶

Too many things rattling around in my brain- hard to choose. :). I think this weekend I’m going to work on pendants and earrings with bird silhouettes sawn out of them. 💚. Hope you get back to your bench soon too!

It’s been a busy couple of weeks with social commitments and medical appointments- looking forward to some studio work this weekend!

Bluesky is collegial and interesting, the way Twitter used to be. Bonus: most people can spell.

A tweet from "Covie" (@covie_93) that reads: "Speaker Mike Johnson from the great state of 'Louisnana' wants to get rid of the Department of Education." Below the tweet is an image of a large blue curtain featuring an emblem with a pelican and the words "SUPREME COURT" and "CONFIDENCE." The word "LOUISNANA" is prominently misspelled instead of "LOUISIANA." The mistake is highlighted with a red circle. In the foreground, three judges in black robes are seated at a table.

Can’t make this up.

And who decides what gender a hairstyle is assigned to?! 🙄. Ridiculous.

Minnesota Anti-Trans State Senator Arrested For Soliciting A Minor Anti-trans elected officials appear to be far more likely to be a danger to minors than drag queens or transgender people.

1. Yesterday, Minnesota State Senator Justin Eichorn was arrested on charges of soliciting a minor.

He's previously cosponsored a bill that would require genital checks for sports in order to ban trans people from sports.

X post from the account "Polling USA" (@USA_Polling ) with a blue checkmark, timestamped 1 day ago. The post reads: "You’re telling me the code talkers that helped to defeat the nazis got removed from military websites BY nazis?" The post includes a reply from the account "Axios" (@axios ), also timestamped 1 day ago, with a yellow badge. The reply reads: "Exclusive: Navajo Code Talkers disappear from military websites after Trump DEI order trib.al/90XSYLB."

Yes. That is in fact what just happened.

This is disgraceful and un-American. The Trump administration defended its removal of articles highlighting the achievements of minority service members, including Navajo code talkers, Marines at Iwo Jima, and famed Black baseball player Jackie Robinson.

Will look for this!

I love her!

That administration wouldn’t know honesty, humility, uniformity, and integrity if it bitch slapped them in the face.

I’m sure this is fine.

Today's mood.

Hey, artists, in case you were wondering if your work matters: I'm a scientist working on climate change and biodiversity, and I would not be who I am today without The Lorax, The Secret of NIMH, Watership Down, The Last Unicorn, and The X-Files. I know I'm not alone. Thank you for all you do.

Measles death of unvaccinated child in Texas outbreak is 1st fatality in US in a decade An unvaccinated school-aged child in Texas has died of measles, the first associated with an outbreak that has infected more than 100 people.

This news truly breaks my heart.

We are calling on HHS to take immediate action. Secretary Kennedy needs to bring back weekly measles tracking from the CDC, rehire the health experts, and roll out a serious vaccine campaign. Our kids' safety is on the line!

Tesla’s shareholders just lost another $38,640,000,000 today — a total $TSLA loss of $600 billion since December.

Tesla’s CEO was not in the office.

In literally any other public company ever, this would be the point where the CEO gets fired.

On the HHS Leadership call today: 1 employee from CMS (Center for Medicare/Medicaid Service) and 2 employees from SSA (Social Security Administration) have died by suicide after their firing.
