A Marvel comic panel that features Spider-Man and Sauron, who is a pterodactyl-man riding a triceratops. Sauron says: "With the DNA we liberated from the grave desecration you call a museum, I have perfected the Saurianization process. You rice paper puppets will be given forms befitting earth's dominant species." Spider-Man responds: "You can rewrite DNA on the fly, and you're using it to turn people in dinosaurs? But with tech like that, you could cure cancer!" Sauron says: "But I don't want to cure cancer. I want to turn people in dinosaurs."
A woman wearing a sweater with shamrocks on it and big blue glasses is smiling at the camera and just beyond her is a small ceramics kiln. There is some debris around, and the concrete wall of a basement.
A product image for a cup chuck (a handy tool to assist in trimming pottery) that is a black half-oval, with three base supports on the flat bottom. Below, the image reads "Anti-Slip Coating - This special coating provides extra grip, enhancing workpiece stability during trimming." However, there is no coating, as the boast refers to the concentric lines that are created when an object is 3D-printed.
A mask-and-mantle grey and white cat is sleeping next to a blonde beagle-lab's big head. The dog, also asleep, has her pink-brown nose up against the cat's white paws. They're both laying on a lap, looking very peaceful.
Two mugs sitting next to each other on a work table. The left mug being a blue with subtle hints of brown on the texture, and the right mug being fresh, unfired clay. The right mug is a full two inches taller than the left one.

This Beholder is painted in the colors of the Trans flag, with the eyestalks being powder blue, the top of the orb being light pink, and the lower half of the orb being white. The main eye's pupil is a rainbow gradient, and each smaller eye is a single color of the rainbow. The spikes on the side of the orb are black and brown.
A disc of fresh white stoneware clay, with concentric circles leading to a flat-topped cone in the middle, sitting atop a dirty purple bat. Though it doesn't look like a boob in the traditional sense, the circle with a mound in the middle does bring the body part to mind.
A video of a small muscle at the base of the thumb twitching every few seconds beneath the skin.
An illustration of Tiamat, the five-headed Queen of Dragons, rising up out of the depths of Hell.

To the left of Tiamat, absolutely dwarfed by Her Majesty, is a cloaked human figure, arms raised.

The sharp beak is to the left, with a slightly tilted head, smooth folded wings, and a fanned tail to the right - beneath which is a whistle. The clay figure sits atop a white, round measurement tool that is a little dirty with the same clay.

A slow-mo video of three large mugs spinning atop of a pottery wheel. The mugs are unfired, unglazed white stoneware and feature a big belly, a half-heart shaped handle, and wavy lines of texture on the belly, with the rim being smooth and slightly flared. They look like they'll hold 18oz.

A grey/black bean-shaped tool that is asymmetrical but has an attractive curve to it, a beveled edge all the way around, and a hole in the middle. This is a pottery rib, a tool to help shape clay when throwing on the wheel.
This is a flyer with a lighthouse on it that reads: "Do you see ICE or Border Patrol in your neighborhood? Call the Hotline (207) 544-9989." Then there's a QR code that says: "Scan here to view a Maine immigrant resource hub" followed by a website "bit.ly/MaineICEWatch". And finishes with: "We're monitoring federal agencies that profile, abduct, and detain members of our community - denying due process and threatening our safety. Spread the word! Protect your neighbors!"
A small ceramic Tufted Titmouse whistle is being held up against a sage green background, painted with a range of greys, white, and a bit of orange under the wing. It's a fat bird. It looks to be smiling a lil.
A white clay stoneware sculpture of a little bird, sitting upon a circular measurement device. The bird is a Tufted Titmouse, with a crest on its head and a big round belly, its head slightly cocked to the side. This project is unpainted, raw clay so far.
A large stoneware mug, filled with coffee, sits upon a clay work table. The mug is made from speckled white clay, has a black rim and large handle, and features a dilapidated haunted house with the message "Mentally I am here" stamped in block letters.
A screenshot of an email from Etsy that reads: "Exciting update: your order is getting closer! It's now in ME." ME being the abbreviation for the state of Maine.
A ceramic black-capped chickadee sculpture (and whistle!) is sitting on a circular measurement sheet. It is hand painted. The bird is very round. It is very cute.

Very tiny spirals of white clay that have been trimmed off a piece of leather hard pottery. They resemble tiny roses.
A screencap from Steam reading: "You've received a gift! Your friend Lodaim has given you The Backrooms on Steam. Click the button below to accept this gift and add it to your Library." Followed by a banner for the game that sketchily reads "The Backrooms". It is signed by Lodaim, and he left the note: "GET SCARED".
A tiny 3D print of a red panda that has been carefully painted oranges, reds, blacks, and browns, and then put upon a stick jutting up out of a 1" TTRPG base so it looks like the panda is walking up a fallen tree. The rest of the base is decorated with tufts of grass and some muddy looking dirt, and the background it a matte black.
A piece of wheel thrown, white stoneware that is still fresh clay, which looks like it swirls into itself to form a puckered closure, somewhat resembling a butthole.
A white stoneware bowl upon a simple platter, the clay still fresh and wet and still upon the potter's wheel. The bowl has a flared rim and you can clearly see the neat spiral within the bowl and upon the platter from where fingers and sponges smoothed out the clay. Behind the bowl are two buckets for water to work with and reclaim.
A blonde beagle-ish hound with a tan nose and eyes is sitting on her owner's lap on a couch. The dog is large enough to nearly cover up the entire person she's sitting on, but the person is leaning half their face out to smile toward the camera.
A photo of the ground, covered in brown, dead leaves with grass poking thru, and in the center of the image is a brown lump that has leaves curled around it almost like a blanket. That brown, fibrous lump is a luna moth cocoon, and can easily be mistaken for dry, dead leaves.
A close up image of a ceramic lid made with brown clay, the handle of which resembling a baby pickle. The lil gherkin has tiny warts on it, a contrast to the smoothness of the lid.
A large water-sealed fermentation (or pickling) crock, made out of red clay, is sitting upon a beige colored worktable. The crock has a lid with a knob handle, a tall rim with a spout, a half-circle handle on either side of curved walls, and ends with a rounded foot. It has just come out of the bisque firing and is ready for glaze, a bottle of which can be partially seen to the right. In the background are dried flowers in a mason jar, a travel coffee mug, and a small pumpkin decoration.
