  today's work: faerie cottages ✨ all of my wee houses are made in the kurinuki technique, so carved from a single block of clay. the first day (yesterday, in this case), i shape the basic structure, separate the roof from the building and shape that, and roughly carve out the interior of the house. the second day, i refine all the shapes, carve the rest of the interior, cut out windows and doors, carve the roof, and carve the flowers and plants on the walls. now, they dry (possibly with...

  autumn spirit friend brings autumn! 🍂 🔥 and an important shop announcement: what with the ever-increasing potential for a fuel crisis that will undoubtedly affect shipping and postage prices, i've decided to keep my shop open throughout october. i'm hoping this will allow people to do holiday shopping (or just because shopping!) before things change, if they do, later in the year. i'll be doing three mini restocks during the month around the 10th, 17th, and 24th, but the shop w...

  husband has been told by the bank who hold his business account that his phone is too old and he has to upgrade to continue accessing said account. and even logging in from a computer requires a phone, so that's fine. totally fine.

  i came downstairs this morning after the sun had risen but before the shutters were open; the sun was shining in through a tiny gap in the shutters and hitting the prism perfectly, and i just stood there staring at it. i went to get my phone after a bit and just managed to get a photo and video (in replies: the prism was moving so the rainbows were too) before it went. it didn't last long, but it was actual magic on the walls.

  to the politicians, journalists, and anyone else who thinks that disabled people are lazy: i am a disabled person with a myriad of diagnosed chronic illnesses. i worked all day yesterday. by the second hour, my back and hip/leg seized up and the shaking/pain in my arms got … challenging. my thumb dislocated and the headache made me feel sick, but i carried on. we have something like *checks notes* no money at the moment, it’s not even halfway through the month, and we’ll have to pay rent and bi...

  the fact that i'm bewildered that an 84-yr-old lady reverend who peacefully and non confrontationally opposes genocide and the destruction of this planet is a terrorist while hundreds of masked thugs dressed all in black who block a port for hours and chant racist slogans are protesters is not just because i'm a commie weirdo, right? i mean surely other people see this as absurd* too? *nowhere near enough of a word, but i think we're beyond the realms of any language adequate to...

  hello! i'm an agender, autistic, disabled and chronically ill ceramicist with little friends to sell and rent to pay! (i'm also terrible at self-promotion :eariz_bun_peek:) my shop is currently OPEN at https://www.driftingspirits.art and will remain open for the next week or so. after that, it'll be closed for some weeks while i try to rest/recover and work on autumn sculptures (autumn!). i'm still waiting for the decision on my disability claim so doing my best to keep going...

  i've got all my current orders packed and ready :abunhdhappyhop:, and we'll be going to the post office on monday after the vets. so if anyone wants anything, i have a bit of capacity to pack a few more over the week-end. after this, i'll be shutting the shop for a bit, but new friends are on their way ... https://www.driftingspirits.art #art #MastoArt

  :eariz_bun_peek: hello. i'm, er, not doing a mutual aid post per se, but i am having a business expense that i can't quite afford along with having lots of other bills and a vet appointment on monday that i can't quite afford. so if anyone has a spare few currency units that they might be able to send our way, i'd be very grateful. we'd be very grateful! i'm still awaiting the decision on my disability application ... i'm working as much as i can in the meantime,...

  gentle fox friend says well done for getting this far through the week! please enjoy the beverage of your choice and have a wee rest if you can. maybe even a snack? and take good care of yourselves. (https://www.driftingspirits.art) #art #MastoArt

  i am very cross about the state of the internet and the motivations of the people ruining it. as someone with multiple diagnosed but untreated chronic illnesses, i've long relied on the internet to help me learn how to manage my health, what to look out for, how to get access to supplements that might help and find resources, etc. and i use it in a similar vein for kitten. we've just started him on a probiotic that's known to work wonders in cats (and humans!) with digestive and...

  good: we had rain! and thunder and lightning and RAIN and lightning and thunder and rain for a good while in the wee small hours. rain!! less good: i've spent 4.5hrs thus far today engaged in complex and stressful cat-health research and now have to do some actual work even though my arms aren't much working and i just want to crawl under a soft rock and not come out. but rain. rain is a miracle 🌱

  i've been feeling very odd today anyway and then just spent the last 20mins looking at pics of the outside and inside of a house i lived in when i was smollish (but much more recent pics) and now i feel very, very odd indeed. it was not a happy place or a happy time and i think i might need a piece of chocolate.

  husband: gets into bed, falls asleep. me: gets into bed, spends 1/2 an hour trying to get comfortable, adjusting every bit of clothing, covers and soft friends, clothing again because adjusting covers pulled clothing, pillow, hair feeling weird on pillow, clothing again, the angle of my legs, clothing, pillow, covers, position of arms, covers. falls asleep?

  marvelling at the misdirection going on here right now. the number of people saying that the fire is out of control because there aren't enough canadairs* is astonishing. yes, there aren't enough canadairs, but france shouldn't need so many! fires shouldn't be like this. and they're impossible to control because of climate change. because of heat, drought, monoculture plantation pine, poor land management, etc. but somehow, the whole conversation has been shifted away fro...
