Our controversial paper is finally out in @cp-iscience.bsky.social !
As part of my PhD dissertation at @qubelfastofficial.bsky.social in 2021, the last chapter was dedicated to a specific pathological pattern in hadrosaurid tails!

Just watched an absolutely embarassing AI-generated musical ad by some German cybersecurity company.

Isn't the future wonderful?

One of the largest temmnospondyls ever to exist: the gigantic Koolasuchus was also the last non-lissamphibian temnospondyl to exist. It survived into the Early Cretaceous of Australia when all other stereospondyls were long gone

Nanotyrannus is cool and all, but what if there was a brand new book written with, and illustrated by, @markwitton.bsky.social on Spinosaurus? Wouldn't that be really cool?

Listen to use talk about it here before it comes out in less than a week!

If it wasn't for museum donors, the Dueling Dinosaurs would be rotting away in a private collection or worse, be destroyed.
That fate could befall over 7 million fossil items in NY's Museum of the Earth if they cannot pay their mortgage by the end of the year.

'I was wrong': Dinosaur scientists agree that small tyrannosaur Nanotyrannus was real, pivotal new study finds

An argument over whether fossils from several small dinosaurs represent a juvenile Tyrannosaurus rex or smaller adults of a separate species may finally be settled.

We fixed up our Halloween costumes some more this year. Here they were a decade ago and then today.

Quadrupedal forest spirit costumes based on the stilt spirit costumes that became famous around that time, but without the stilts because we found out the hard way how easy it is to fall in them so we just use forearm crutches and plantigrade feet. Both have blank white faces and yarn for hair along with eclectic creepy cloth clothing.

Looking up Phorusrhacos stock 3D models on Google Images and this was a result

*sigh*

Spotted a "We put compound words into an AI and this is what it spit out" calendar. And of course, since you can generate so much output, this calendar doesn't just have images for the 12 months, but for the 53 weeks.

What's your favourite dinosaur design from an indie project?

Even if it's not accurate, I always liked Saurian's very first T. rex - the one with the black vulture coat - the most.
