Jason Vorhees is a bullet-journaling master of productivity. He culled the Crystal Lake camp counselor population, he died many times and returned from the dead even more times, he had sewer adventures in Manhattan, melted from toxic waste and was possessed, cryogenically frozen, resurrected via nanotechnology, ejected into space and finally brought back to life by the boiler room dude from a competing horror franchise. I mean, I feel good if I’ve remembered to put on pants before I leave the house. But now you can do something even Mr. Voorhees hasn’t: make ceramics! It’s Friday the 13^th come make a ceramic cauldron! No ceramic, Manhattan sewer adventure, toxic waste, or hockey mask slaughtering experience necessary.
