This is very relevant to my interests starting tomorrow. Great fun looking through my Protosphyraena Pile (tm) to tease out clues to this weirdo's anatomy

I really think putting the dinosaurs next to the agency that's supposed to help warn us about asteroids is a bit on the nose... NASA #nstaspring24

Update on the comparative anatomy homework trainers. Mosasaurus and Tyrannosaurus!

Dear archaeologists. Please leave the dinosaurs up to the professionals. K thx.

Too many Martinichthys shoots but in the wake of the new paper, I had to look at a few things.

Most of my posting is on the other site now. Also if you need invite codes, I have a few.

My car is telling me to stop driving I think.

I was interviewed for the new Undark Magazine article on fossil preparation by Asher Elbein (asherelbein.bsky.social) where I make the audacious claim that preparators should be included in the author list when they contribute to how fossils are understood and published. undark.org/2023/11/15/fos…

Pachycormids on the brain…

Hey Dr Femke Holwerda remember that one paper I wanted to write on mosasaurs?

In honor of Lindsay Zanno 's recent work on Thescelosaurus noggins, happy #FossilFriday !

It's #WaybackWednesday : ornithischian edition

Here's the skull of Bert the Thescelosaurus while I had the privilege of preparing it.

Someday I'll find a fossil this nice.

Is it still #GarWeek ? Yep, every week is #GarWeek when you work in the Hell Creek.

Things going ok here?

I'm trying to hold it together for #GARWEEK 2023, at least as well as these 66 million year old gar scales held together.

What a dork.

I went ahead and revived the blog for a quick writeup on our involvement in the new mosasaur. It was quite a bit of work even with us doing 'The easy part' rmdrc.blogspot.com/2023/10/walhal…
