A plastic pumpkin painted with a scene inspired by Over the Garden Wall. Greg and Wirt are walking down a spooky forest path and are surrounded by references to the series. There's a tree with creepy faces on the left, a big black dog with glowing eyes on the right, and a silhouette of the Beast in the distant foggy background. There are pumpkins with faces like those in Pottsfield on the path

Just in time for spooky season: DINOSAUR "MUMMIES!"

Unlike Egyptian mummies, these don't have squishy bits preserved, but the rock around these carcasses had clay capturing texture of scales, a midline crest w/ keratin spikes, &, brand new, feet w/ hooves! 🧪⚒️🦕🦖

BREAKING: A new experimental intranasal COVID-19 vaccine has shown remarkable results eliminating the virus in mice.

A single dose provided 60% protection, while two doses achieved 100% protection, completely blocking infection.

Just a fun picture of the juvenile T rex maxillae I helped excavated back during fieldwork with KU in 2017. The left maxilla has almost all the teeth still in their sockets!

Coolest part about the site was how it preserved the mega flora well enough for me to reconstruct the forest!

#Medsky🧪 #IDsky #virosky #drugdevelopment #immunosky #publichealth The 1st generation of #mRNAvaccines for #COVID were instrumental in curbing the ongoing #COVID19pandemic. However, they failed to elicit broad & durable immunity, essential for long-term protection against viral variants.

Here's a T. Rex bored to death trying to bite their own tail. My partner asked me to animate it in stop motion, after she watched a video about the very important topic of "could T. Rex chew its own tail like a dog". The puppet is still a work in progress 🦖

Happy portfolio day! I’m an artist with experience on projects for companies ranging from Wizards of the Coast to Walt Disney Animation, though my constant passion in art is always depicting glimpses of prehistoric worlds 🦖 #portfolioday #paleoart #paleosky #dinosaurart

How to get the best night’s sleep: what the science says Chuck the gadgets, the fads and the alarm. Circadian research reveals how important your body’s internal clock is to blissful slumber.

Here's a great summary of #sleep and #circadian #research

www.nature.com/articles/d41...

— Bright daytime light exposure
— Breakfast like a king, lunch like a prince, supper like a peasant
— Consistent sleep schedule, even on weekends

My own: intense exercise in morning, stretching before bed

A large theropod (probably tyrannosaur) track from Nose Mountain, Alberta shows the fourth digit twisted such that half of the toe was folded underneath the rest.

America should have been on a human rights watch list long ago.

My new book with @markwitton.bsky.social on Spinosaurus and their relatives is out a month today! It's available for preorder, so now is the time to get in on this amazing and well-illustrated book on these oddest of #dinosaurs. But don't take our word for it, here's what others have to say:

Greta Thunberg is among flotilla activists deported from Israel. Others remain in prison Israeli authorities said Monday they deported to Greece and Slovakia another 171 people detained for taking part in a Gaza-bound aid flotilla, including prominent Swedish activist Greta Thunberg.

Latest Cretaceous megaraptorid theropod dinosaur sheds light on megaraptoran evolution and palaeobiology - Nature Communications Megaraptoran theropod dinosaur anatomy and evolution is unclear due to the fragmentary nature of most available fossils. Here the authors report a well-preserved, late surviving megaraptoran from Argentina that clarifies our understanding of the morphology of this group and potentially provides insights into its diet and feeding strategies.

New spinosaurids from the Wessex Formation (Early Cretaceous, UK) and the European origins of Spinosauridae - Scientific Reports Scientific Reports - New spinosaurids from the Wessex Formation (Early Cretaceous, UK) and the European origins of Spinosauridae

New Rauhut et al. PalaeoE paper on Iberian spinosaurids is really interesting but odd that they only cite us (Barker et al. 2021) once, and only in connection with an anatomical trait. I'm biased, but Barker et al. is an important paper in European spinosaurid studies www.nature.com/articles/s41...

screenshot of an email from bluesky that reads: Hi there, A Bluesky account you control (@ellearmageddon.bsky.social) posted: "i heard fbi is offering a reward for information leading to the capture of charlie kirk's shooter. completely unrelated, y'all remember how the person who called in to report luigi mangione not only didn't actually get reward money, but also lost their job? wild."

ope, got a nastygram from bluesky for… this:

Here are some things that Charlie Kirk said in his life.

The man is dead, and so it only seems fair to share his legacy by cataloguing the values he spread while alive.

Screencap of a viral post from Robert Sterling on twitter showing several posts from bluesky, including mine.

Fascist commentators and neo-nazis picked up on the posts and began to spread them on X.

What happened next is very funny:

Bluesky immediately caved to the fascist pushback and used the article from the Federalist as a list to decide who to ban.

Me, bree, Gretchen Felker-Martin and others.
