Hey you. A while ago I was given this awesome, old gorgonopsian model. It has no logo, brand, name, etc. on it. I'm intensely curious about it! Does anyone know anything about this model? I'd love to know the artist who created this and to know the year it was produced! Help??

I don't get to spend a lot of time in my office, which is sad, because now there are three original @wargonopsid.bsky.social paintings hanging on the wall. So, I just want to sit there and look at them! 😭😭😭😭😭

This is a teaser for what is about to happen in a few weeks. A possible bucket moment may happen for me!

I never shared with you that I've got an @wargonopsid.bsky.social original painting. I've never told you I cried after I got it and get a bit teary eyed every time I see it. And now thanks to @snakesandkittens.bsky.social I have a sweet T-shirt with art by Wargonopsid too!!!! 💜💜💜 I'm a huge fan 💜

Cat tax because the world is terrible. Here is Bear doing a Majestic.

How small was the fossil I was working on today? Much smaller than the tip of a 0.25mm micron pen. Here are three views of the specimen with varying degrees of clarity success. It's literally the two tiny white dots I've circled with the pen.

I left home for a week-long vacation and upon return, Goose had some thoughts.

TLDR: Leaving him is unacceptable

This. This 1000x. This all day. This every day.

And for today's fossil prep content, I spent 8 hours scratching the behind of this little Antarctic reptile with a tungsten carbide needle

Today's pick-me-up was spending $56 at the museum gift store on very needed lanyard and labcoat flaire

Connect the dots for them.

Wearing matching Inostrancevia earrings with PBS Eons host MB Ramirez. ✨ Earrings 3D printed by @pongoloid.bsky.social! Today PBS Eons film crew and MB hung out in the vert paleo collections and fossil prep lab, and we nerded out on gorgonopsians!

Today I finished painting two sets of miniature Inostrancevia skulls bound to be earrings! @pongoloid.bsky.social printed them for me!

Since my phone's SIM died shortly after midnight, and its cameras broke a few months ago, I decided to get a new phone. I have a working camera again! So I took a picture of food, of course. I'm eating my feelings.

Cat tax for today's happy moment
