Ichthyotitan quick painting from latest Triassic of the UK.

The solution to climate change is degrowth & ecological urban life.

We need to use less energy, but we don't have to suffer bc of it.

Walkable, ecologically integrated urban spaces w/ a dirth of social amenities must replace car centric corporate cities.

yeah keep yapping and we'll bring the birth rate down somemore

'We don't know, it'll be proven wrong eventually' annoys me so much. Science (paleontology in this example) isn't a binary 'right or wrong'. It's more akin to a puzzle that starts with a few pieces as we slowly find more. An incomplete puzzle isn't 'wrong', it's just incomplete.

People need to understand the way prisons function as warehouses for “surplus populations” — under certain conditions, they can easily ratchet up their (already existing) lethality and convert from deadly warehouses to active extermination camps.

Abolish prisons.

A complete, articulated, perfectly preserved and properly described Spinosaurus aegyptiacus with most, if not all of it's skin mummified. A specimen so perfect that it ends all debates once and for all.

ICE must be destroyed 🏴🏳️‍⚧️ As an anarchist who literally maintains capital in quite literally the most direct way

This entire argument is funny because it's not some cabal of tech bros that know how to build and maintain complex logistics

It's workers

factories, fields, schools, hospitals and duck boat inflation facilities, organize production themselves as the people who are already doing the fucking work and thus know how it works, and run it themselves democratically through the councils.

Moreover, ICE must be destroyed

This is more complicated answer the simplest answer to how would anarchist make inflatable duck boats is we did it already in Catalonia may I introduce you to the concept of a workers council and the idea that workers can seize control of their

My 25 years of palaeoart chronology...

An acrylic painting from 2004. Titled 'The Wreck,' it depicts a submerged sauropod carcass & a collection of small marine reptiles. I painted it for my friend & marine reptile expert Richard Forrest.
