I've got some of my Oddities & Curiosities Expo hotels booked!! I've been working hard for this second year of Expo's and going to new cities is so exciting. (And going back home to Chicago, which is always nice.) I just needed a good reminder of the positive things coming up. ✨

Kitties and board games. (She blew on them for good luck...)

I've hunkered down, just working, working, working... all I know is clay, kiln fumes, and glaze-covered clothes at the moment. It's okay to be oblivious to the news/world for a while, right?

The mushrooms are talking about you, they say you should cover your finger in spore dust and stick it in your ear

I had the sweetest dream last night. I was driving on the LIE and there was Donald Trump in a red jumpsuit, picking up trash beside the highway.

Proud of you! I hope it's an incredible weekend! 🖤🖤

Ah! You are correct! But your content is also joyous, so even more for my feed!

Ahhh YES!! My heart thanks you 🫠🍄‍🟫

Help! I need the guy who posts cool mushrooms and says "here's some cool mushrooms" to be in my feed again to stave off the depression of my doom scrolling. I can't remember his username.

Absolutely gorgeous! The perfect combos 😍✨

One thing about me is that I will fight Nazis until I’m six feet in the ground.

That looks like an absolute cozy ass corner 🦇🖤

It surprisingly is... I can "disappear" into it.

It's gotten cold enough that I have to encapsulate myself with my wall heater when I'm throwing pots now. Don't worry, I take down the fire hazard before I run the vented kiln. 🫠
This has been my safe haven lately.

You're going to do amazing! So excited for you and can't wait to see you soon!

I haven't been outside in days... finally checked the mail today and I cried. Today is the perfect day to get #pattiegonia merch. My trans friends, I see you and I love you. Thinking of you all desperately. 🏳️‍🌈💙

Today? I slept in, made brunch, lazily laid around and cross-stitched, and napped. The only thing I "watched" was the two fur kids fighting over how much lap space they got... and the only thing I listened to was a really good playlist and the heat kicking on in this negative degree weather. #MLKday

Oof yeah, I'm fucking done with the Monopoly Meta/"TikTok Savior Trump"/Billionaire Oligarchy. With everything I'm absorbing lately, it's like come Monday, the apps will be back as a Red Reich Regime. Fuck that.

Let’s hope that Tik Tok is disabled tonight at midnight and all day tomorrow and Monday.

Which means the biggest story on Monday will be…

And the reaction from the newly installed President will be …

Stoked about all the new things I'm conjuring. 🧙🏼‍♀️

My Oddities & Curiosities Expo line-up this year! Hanging out in the MidWest this time and I'm excited to be back home in Chicago again to see my friends and fam. 🖤

I've literally just dropped myself into my work because of this country being on fire (damn, literally and figuratively 🙁)... I'm excited for the things I'm creating, but it's hard to be entirely optimistic about 2025.
So idk, here's the beginning stage of my new glaze test tiles... 🫠

I'm currently having an IG "Story Sale" to help me clear out smaller, easier-to-ship, items in order to repurchase clay in bulk for 2025. Please go check it out for last minute Creepmas Gifts, stocking stuffers, or a *just because* buy. I'm grateful for the support!

Just making that first post to break myself in... I'm a ceramics artist that makes Halloween/Horror/Occultism themed functional pieces. I loathe the rotten orange and am a Veteran. Also queer, child-free, and support POC and trans-humans. Hi! 💙

ME: “My time machine works! I just killed Bobby Hitler!”
FRIEND: “You mean baby Hitler?”
ME:
FRIEND:
ME:”I’ll be right back.”

I can hardly wait!

Here is a nice mushroom
