Manipuloyx, a new alvarezsaur with really fascinating hands!
The condition of the fingers isn't that unusual for the clade but the OSTEODERMS on the hand are new!

Words like 'parvenue' get used seriously and my spouse 'married down' class wise. This is actually true. He has distant relatives in the lower aristocracy and I don't have any family of note at all. This actually still kinda matters here.
Listen, it's about how much money you have, unless you don't have any and your grandad was an aristocrat. And it's about how much land you have, unless you bought that land in that last 4 generations. And it's about your education, kinda, unless your family aren't the right sort.

I love trying to explain the british class system to americans. 'so it's about money?' well yes, but also no. 'so it's about history?' well yes, but also no. 'so it's about land? 'well yes, but also no'. 'so it's about education?' 'well yes, but also no'.

It's #ChristmasEve, so I depicted Parasaurolophus under UV light, lit up like a Christmas tree - you can check out the rationale of this #paleoart on my #Patreon if you're already bored of holiday TV. Oh, and Happy Christmas to those who celebrate! #sciart #fossils

National Fossil Day 🧪
The Cambrian fossil Opabinia was thought to be a weird wonder unrelated to any species. New data shows it was cousin to arthropods! We described 2 new species last year & they survived 40 mill yrs! 😍

As we go into the holidays, I leave you with this stone relief and stunning cuneiform inscription.
The writing is engraved over the image of a protective spirit whose image once flanked the doorway to the throne room of an Assyrian palace in Nimrud.

this isn’t a coincidence, coming right after an administration literally bought and paid for by big tobacco has largely destroyed federal public health capacity
With more actors, pop stars and other celebrities spotted unapologetically smoking, the cultural taboo against it shows signs of ebbing. That worries antismoking advocates. 🔗 on.wsj.com/49om2X4

Bending your institution to meet the prejudices of your dumbest, meanest students is a surefire way to destroy a university.

"This story doesn't need a sandworm"
This is almost always wrong. Arguably, EVERY story benefits from adding a huge subterranean worm with quasi-mystical or semi-supernatural powers, or equivalent (similar to Moby Dick).
Obviously the bigger the worm, the more literary quality it adds.

when i go "if you say AI in your product i'm not touching it", i say it because i'm not playing these fucking mind games. at this moment in time AI has a specific connotation, if you're advertising with that term you know full well what you're implying about your product. even if it's not That AI.
love that software developers are advertising AI functionality in every single app now and it's up to you to try to figure out if they mean "this has spellcheck" or "everything you create in this app will sync in real-time to sam altman's personal laptop" or something in between
