Can we talk about how we used to treat pottery shards?

Back in the 90s, our team in Turkey would just bag and tag every single piece. Now we do on-site 3D scanning with a Faro arm before moving anything. The shift happened after a dig near Ephesus where context got totally lost. Anyone else switch their field methods recently?

My most bizarre haircut request yet involved a customer bringing in a slice of pizza as a style guide.

Funny how everyone's suddenly an expert at coupon clipping.

I see my social media feeds flooded with grocery saving tips now. Friends share pictures of their receipt wins and coupon piles. It feels like a friendly race to cut costs, which is pretty cool. This whole thing has me looking at my own spending differently.

Warning: the climb up Angels Landing in Zion had me on edge

The chain section was slick from morning dew. What's the best time to go to avoid that?

My brother insists we team up for repairs, but I work faster alone.

Last time we tried fixing the deck together, we spent more time debating methods than actually hammering. I've learned that solo work saves both time and relationships.

Rant: The color mixer at my shop went crazy yesterday

I was prepping a highlight formula, and the machine started squirting color everywhere. My apron looked like a rainbow threw up on it. We had to stop and clean for an hour, and the client thought it was a new art project. So ridiculous!

DAE dismiss wood ash glazes until a friend's sustainable studio tour?

Learning how they repurpose waste completely shifted my view.

Vent: My before-bed yoga flows are fast and it really works for me

Most folks say evening yoga should be slow to help you relax, but I do the opposite. I run through a quick, energetic flow right before I hit the pillow. It started when I noticed calm poses just left me lying awake, thinking too much. Now I do a short series with moves like warrior jumps and fast sun salutes. It takes about ten minutes and burns off that last bit of restlessness. My friend who teaches yoga says it's a bad idea and will keep me up. But I fall asleep faster and sleep deeper when I do it. If you always hear to slow down but it doesn't help, maybe try a speedy flow instead.

VR fitness games are giving me more aches than gains

I joined a virtual reality exercise class hoping to get in shape. The constant head movements and controller waving left my shoulders sore and my back tight. Is anyone else experiencing physical issues from VR workouts?
