You all know I had to do it. Here is my reconstruction of the newly described Spinosaurus mirabilis, including its magnificent scimitar-shaped head crest

Four sketches of Giganotosaurus depicting in various poses.

Four sketches of Giganotosaurus depicting in various poses.

Today let me sketch one of the largest theropod #dinosaurs, the enormous Giganotosaurus carolinii

Giganotosurus lived during the latest part of the Cretaceous in South America. It had a long, tall and narrow skull with prominent crests. These crests were rugose and had numerous ridges

Exciting news! I was interviewed by @currentbiology.bsky.social for their Q & A section, where I talk about the future of palaeontology, dangers of AI in education, social media and science communication. Featuring, my doodles!

Rare ceratosaur fossil sells for $30.5 million | CNN A Ceratosaurus fossil that is one of only four known to exist has sold for $30.5 million at auction.

Another day, another dinosaur auction.

A world where dinosaur skeletons can fetch tens of millions of dollars within a few minutes at auctions is not a world where dinosaurs will long be accessible to educate and inspire everyone.

My thoughts for @CNN

YouTube video by Dapper Dinosaur Calling Dinosaurs Birds Makes Birds Not Dinosaurs | Don't Believe This Lie (Part 2)

I have a new video coming out in just under an hour! Come see what absurd lies a creationist will resort to to pretend that birds are not dinosaurs, and while you're at it a like, comment, and share would go a long way.

Two small and semiaquatic (possibly) dromaeosaurs from Late Cretaceous Asia. Natovenator polydontus and Mahakala omnogovae. Both species have been found to be closely related to Halszkaraptor

I have added these two to my plate of all Dromaeosaurs

Now that a genuinely inspiring and capable socialist who also happens to be a brown Muslim man won a high profile race, we are about to see levels of panic from the punditry that will be studied for generations.

The New York results will send a clear message to the Democratic party; voters want change. they want progressive leaders who will fight for them. they're tired of the establishment. either dem politicians will realize this or they will be pushed aside for politicians who will listen to them.

Its eerily similar to what nazi germany did, to oust "bolshevism" and "jews".
