Yall NEED to go vote. I literally do not care if you feel anxious or its hard to make time or, and this better not be you, "there will be enough votes it will be fine"

We all watched as the current president beat who we -thought- would win by a tiny margin.
DON'T BE THE ONE TO LET THAT HAPPEN AGAIN
i hate to be that bitch, but my sources are telling me this early voting data has gotten Zohran's people rightly spooked and y'all better stop assuming this one's in the bag. GOTV

If it wasn't for museum donors, the Dueling Dinosaurs would be rotting away in a private collection or worse, be destroyed.
That fate could befall over 7 million fossil items in NY's Museum of the Earth if they cannot pay their mortgage by the end of the year.

I don't talk about this often, but I'm half-Palestinian on my father's side. Seeing this means the world to me.
DCU’s Superman actor David Corenswet has reportedly signed a petition urging a boycott of Israeli film institutions accused of supporting genocide and apartheid against Palestinians.

White-tailed Deer often have serious urban overpopulation issues because we removed many of their natural predators (ultimately increasing human-wildlife conflict and hurting deer too).

But also, it's so cool that I can walk outside and see these magnificent animals just resting in the yard

I don' care how much evidence there is, I'm not accepting Nanotyrannus was valid and I was on the wrong side of palaeontology and thus a fool.
October 30, 2025 at 9:26 PM
How it feels being someone who still thinks Nanotyrannus is just a juvenile T. rex and any difference is just individual variation, and any previous defenders are still wrong.
October 30, 2025 at 8:03 PM
On the flipside, so many who subscribed to "Naotyrannus wasn;t reall" are going to act like its the end of the world that they were on the wrong side and deny all evidence to the contrary just because they think being wrong will get them laughed at and thy are failures.
I'm pretty confident that certain online people are going to be cheering about how they were right all along on Nanotyrannus. Their take will be that they were right all along and their arguments, based on private specimens of uncertain provenance, photos of things without scale bars, and ideas...

I for one refuse to believe this will last.

No way am i gonna look like a fool.
My latest for @nytimes.com! For 40 years, paleontologists have grappled over whether a small tyrannosaur — named Nanotyrannus — was its own animal, or simply a teenage T.rex. The debate has been ... contentious. Which is why it's so fun to finally be able to say this:

Folks? Nanotyrannus is real.
