Two ceramic mugs in the surf. They feature horseshoe crabs and are green and blue, respectively. A digital illustration of the pokemon Squawkabilly, which is a parody of Audubon's Carolina Parakeets. Each color of Squawkabilly is present, with the center green one being shiny.

Screenshot of a cel-shaded, hand-drawn video game asset that is a grayish-green horseshoe crab on blue rock. The crab is clearly truckin' somewhere, maybe to horse town.

Made an updated version for *generally points at everything* since we seem to be trying a bit of FAFO with human lives across the globe and I’m sick and tired of it. New version and old both available on my Ko-Fi to download for free.

a while ago, I was trying to learn Godot and wanted to make a game where you played a mermaid who accidentally got sucked down to the abyss, and had to team up with an anglerfish to get back home.
But then I lost my job and it got shelved. Maybe one day. Any #gamedev ppl wanna help me? LOL

a model sheet of illustrations for a little mermaid character, with green skin and purple hair and stripes. She has a little pink shirt, and large nerdy glasses. Many different poses show different expressions and angles. a model sheet of illustrations for a deep sea anglerfish character. They're a dark, dim purple colour with frightening teeth and an evil grin, and the quintessential dangling light out of their head. Many different poses show different expressions and angles.

I don't want to downplay the work of the 26 other authors, but has there been a move to distance Myrhvold from this? It was quite jarring seeing him there considering Paleontology has been rocked by Jack Horner's Epstein ties.

Meet Spinosaurus mirabilis.

I got to see the material and skull reconstruction in the lab last year. Lots of people have been working hard on getting this described for quite some time and it's great to finally see it published.

What really needs to happen is better resources for parents with autistic children. Better education about the spectrum, how to aid your child to the best life they can live, and being ready for them to not be what you expected. Not some eugenics ass therapy that won’t work and will only harm kids

Horse(shoe crab) limb.....
Realistic watercolor illustration of a leg from a male horseshoe crab. This leg was found on a beach on the Atlantic coast of the U.S.. It's a dark brown arthropod limb with a smooth, hooked tip on the very end, overall flexed and bent almost like a letter Z, on a background of tan and light green mottled watercolor. By Christine Hutson, 2024.
