Reading is political.

Reading has always been political.

Your favorite characters wouldn’t just sit by and watch. They’d get up and burn some shit to the ground.

Whoops. Sorry about the late dino fact.

I did in fact forget 😅

Acrocanthosaurus. It was a large carcharodontosaurid from the Early Cretaceous and lived in what is now North America.

These guys were absolutely massive, reaching to about 11.5 meters long (38ft) and weighing about 6 to 7 tons.

Whats that?

You want to learn about a terrifying animal from the Late Cretaceous that wasn’t a dinosaur?

I got you.

Kaprosuchus, also know as the Boar Croc.

It was a large crocodyliform that is known for its long tusk like teeth, and a pair of horns on the back of their heads.

Let do another request tonight.

Someone asked me what I think the coolest sauropod is.

Amargasaurus.

They lived during the Early Cretaceous in what is now Argentina.

And while they were relatively small for a sauropod, reaching about 9-13 meters (30-43ft), they were cool as hell.

Tonights prehistoric fact was a requested one.

Tullimonstrum or the “Tully monster”.

These fellas were weird.

They look like creatures from a planet, far far away.

They lived during the Late Carboniferous and predate dinosaurs by millions of years.

Hey, you should learn Herbalism.

Especially if you’re someone who has a uterus.

Especially if you live in a country that is trying to make having a uterus nearly impossible to have any choices.

Before no fault divorce and women’s rights, we got ✨creative✨

You should learn it, as a hobby 🙂‍↕️🌿

One of my reading goals this year is to just dnf the books I’m not enjoying.

There are far to many books I want to read to suffer through ones I’m not feeling.

Lets talk about the dinosaur renaissance.

The dinosaur renaissance was a huge turning point in paleontology.

For a long time dinosaurs were thought to be just massive lizards that dragged their tails and were cold blooded.

Which, is vastly different than what we know now. So what changed?

Hey, so friendly reminder.

Not all witches are wiccan.

So please for the love of the gods, stop bringing up the rule of three as some kind of warning.

I’m an eclectic chaos witch babe, I don’t practice the Wiccan rules.

We are am pro hexing and curses over here 😌

Since I’m rereading Jurassic Park, let’s talk about AMNH 5027.

AMNH 5027 is the iconic T.rex that is on display at the American Museum of Natural History.

I also guarantee that even if you know nothing about dinosaurs, you definitely know AMNH 5027.

At least visually.

Woke up in a bad mental space today.

So that means it’s time to do a reread of one of my favorite books 🦖
