Predator: Badlands is a movie precisely tailored to nine year old me who grew up reading Predator dark horse comics

RIP (rest in puke)
For #FossilFriday & in honor of @alinemghilardi.bsky.social & colleagues' fantastic discovery of a new Cretaceous pterosaur in Brazil in a dinosaur regurgitalite ("fossil vomit"), here's a diagram I made for my book 'Dinosaurs Without Bones' (2014) showing the physics of a puking brachiosaur. 🧪🦕🤮🪨

Crystal Dynamics has laid off another 30 workers in a restructuring today, making this the third wave of layoffs this year. https://bit.ly/49RmDBg

There's a really sweet thing working in my office where we get to order two free lunches from a nice list of rotating takeout places a week. And there's always this charming moment of community where someone is like "oops forgot to cancel my ramen!" In slack, followed by a "Dibs!" from someone else.

BREAKING: Starbucks workers have launched a massive, nationwide strike.
Baristas in 40 cities have walked off the job on the busiest day of Starbucks' year.
Upwards of 12,000 @sbworkersunited.org members could ultimately go on strike as the union escalates.
