Nice job on the mug! For me pulling and attaching handles was always the worst part, but yours looks great!

Trump thinks he can rule America like a king.

Nice work! I love pottery but limit myself to just painting the pre-made things...

Plus IIRC, it is typical for the current holders of these placements to get some transition time (particularly in the case of State Department placements where entire families are living in a different country), and Trump’s team bucked tradition by insisting that a lot of them leave the moment he took office.

This is the worst. I’m thoroughly embarrassed to be an American right now.

I checked and noticed that my one year exercise anniversary was January 16. I’ve been able to keep this up for one year. I feel good about that. I’ve noticed a change. I’ve gone down a few clothes sizes and I have more energy.

Who gets plain vanilla dippin’ dots? How white bread can you get?

Guys, I’m so proud of everyone who marched today. Please share any thoughts, photos, or experiences so I can fully express my gratitude.

Point out that close to 50% of fertilized eggs fail to implant in the uterus naturally, and they get really mad at you.

So why aren’t these women protesting the abysmal healthcare that many women have for their fetuses and children?
