I remember a great exchange between my art history professor in college and another student.

My classmate said anyone could make this, in reference to a Jackson Pollock work

Our teacher said "But you didn't though."

That still sticks with me

What is your most cherished animal sighting that you have personally seen?

My top 3:

1. A juvenile humpback whale
2. A bald eagle with a canada goose it just killed
3. A mother grizzly bear with a cub almost as big as her

There are medieval LARPs

There are futuristic LARPs

There are modern LARPs

But there are no prehistoric LARPs

During the Eocene Epoch, 25 million years ago, parts of North America as far north as Oregon were covered with a sub-tropical forest that was nearly identical to the one found in Central America today. These large Brontotherium teeth only hint at the majestic size of a well preserved, adult skull.

A male Pectinodon courts a female with inflating its speculative gular sac and fanning its wing feathers. 

To look more impressive he stands atop a fossilized Tyrannosaurus rex skull embedded in weathered rock.

Hyneria lindae, a predatory lobe-finned fish from the late Devonian period.

Hyneria lindae, a predatory lobe-finned fish from the late Devonian period.

Hyneria lindae

An Eotetrapodiform fish from the late Devonian. Lived at an important time in Earth history where early tetrapods began to colonize land.

Thought to be a low-activity ambush predator in fresh water habitats

My YouTube algorithm somehow recommended me the videos of an alt-right troll in the vert paleo reconstruction community.

Most of it is incomprehensible

For all the accusations of "virtue-signaling" that the right accused the left of doing, they really like to pearl clutch and virtue signal too.

🚨NEW STUDY DROP🚨

Giant toothed platypus, Obdurodon insignis, receives new late Oligocene material from the Pinpa Local Fauna at Billeroo Creek, South Australia. AU fossils pre-Pliocene are very rare, only coming from this species, so this adds even more!
