I just learned about @stemlabels.xyz! It's a lovely little tool that makes finding other folks in the science easier! Definitely subscribe to the list if you're into STEM topics

Also, probably not something everyone knows, but the Solnhofen Archipelago isn't one homogeneous site. its several formations that stretch across Bavaria. We decided to focus on Altmühltal or the Solnhofen limestone in the strict sense, but Mörnsheim, Painten, and Torleite have amazing fauna too.

Something I learned from working with @joschuaknuppe.bsky.social and @seismic-shrimp.bsky.social with researching formations and paleontological localities for the Formation Pieces is just how many amazing sites there are. We have so far drawn over 70 murals and have a lot more we could draw 1/2

The stratigraphy of the Judith is sadly very messy and needs a lot of dedicated love and Research in order to figure out large scale correlates between it and Dinosaur Park, Oldman, and Foremost. This map I made shows how messy the stratigraphy can be.

some maps I made for the Kayenta formation and Morrison formation surface exposures from a bunch of data. I would love some corrections. The red in Colorado in the first image represents the area I have not found a map showing the specific kayenta exposure (if anyone knows a map i would love it)

Here's my skeletal of Medusaceratops lokii, a Albertaceratopsini Centrosaurine from the Judith River formation of Montana. This taxon is known from a large bonebed containing many specimens. thanks to both @lordtrilobite.bsky.social and @andyfarke.bsky.social for helping the restoration! scalebar 1m

yesterday I got to see @museumoftherockies.bsky.social's new exhibition focusing on Judith River and Two Medicine animals. As well as the traveling Sue exhibition. It was amazing, definitely their best exhibitions I've seen!

I absolutely adored the other book I have of @restingdinoface.bsky.social. So I just *had* to pick up The Last Days of Dinosaurs on my museum trip today. Riley is both an awesome writer and someone who is rad af

I can finally share this very quick comm I did for Naturkundemuseum Bamberg in Germany!!! They just opened a new exhibition on the gemstone Tourmaline and wanted various linearts of the gem for kids to color! I felt bad that the deadline was tight, but there was a threat to my life lol.

The UK was amazing!! my final stop was doing the Prehistoric Planet Lightroom show, which was absolutely spectacular!!! Afterwards, I bought @tetzoo.bsky.social's Dinopedia since I didn't have the chance to get one at #DinoConUK.

I'm really anxious about missing the 1st week of school this semester, but I've still been putting a lot of effort into my study even here in the UK. Here is something that represents the history of my field: the first ever dinosaur named, the original type of Iguanodon at the NHMUK.

I made a little diagram of various Chinese Lagerstätten (plus Sinuiju in North Korea) in comparison to each other temporarily. Take this with a huge grain of salt since I mainly did this for fun, but I still think the chart turned out visually pleasing.
