Pinned
I realise I have been remiss and have not posted the various items I have made in pottery class this semester. I decided to try again after a break of about five years.
I’ll probably pin this post so it’s easier to update it.
Disclaimer, I am not good at this by any means, but it’s fun.

My town has a strange microclimate. We are in Northern Ireland, but my town is pretty much warm all winter (warmer than average) so we rarely get snow. And at some point planting some sort of palm tree became trendy.
They have started cladding the trunks of said pines in sheets of fairy lights.

Someone told me yesterday that one thing rich kids do for fun is text each other surprise coordinates in international waters where they all take their yachts and meet up and have parties. We cannot imagine the the gulf in relative experience of the world between the truly rich and... The rest of us
All of you are poor. These hypothetical poor people everyone is discussing are us. We’re poor. Idc if you make 6 figures or not. You’re poor too.

Another catnip thread for the neurospicy. Ranging from sewing to archeology and then some.
Things used in everyday life are the real archaeological treasures! These sewing #needles were made from animal bone some 15,000 years ago. Some designs simply don't need to be improved, because form and functions were perfectly matched from the start. Form follows function! 🧵1/2
