I've published an article on the cutest new little dinosaur, the amazing Zavacephale... www.discoverwildlife.com/dinosaurs/za...
Exquisite dome-headed dinosaur unearthed in Mongolian desert is oldest ever found | Discover Wildlife
The skull of the newly described dinosaur species was found “exposed on a cliff like a cabochon jewel” in the Eastern Gobi Desert.

Can you even imagine the personhood discussions we’d be having if we had living Australopiths?

Another day, another dinosaur auction.

A world where dinosaur skeletons can fetch tens of millions of dollars within a few minutes at auctions is not a world where dinosaurs will long be accessible to educate and inspire everyone.

I have a new video coming out in just under an hour! Come see what absurd lies a creationist will resort to to pretend that birds are not dinosaurs, and while you're at it a like, comment, and share would go a long way.

Two small and semiaquatic (possibly) dromaeosaurs from Late Cretaceous Asia. Natovenator polydontus and Mahakala omnogovae. Both species have been found to be closely related to Halszkaraptor

I have added these two to my plate of all Dromaeosaurs

Now that a genuinely inspiring and capable socialist who also happens to be a brown Muslim man won a high profile race, we are about to see levels of panic from the punditry that will be studied for generations.

The New York results will send a clear message to the Democratic party; voters want change. they want progressive leaders who will fight for them. they're tired of the establishment. either dem politicians will realize this or they will be pushed aside for politicians who will listen to them.

TIL that the claim “the Civil War was about states’ rights/taxes/Christianity” was fabricated by people defending the institution of slavery.

I understand why Democrats are being restrained about this but the right's effort to lie about what happened here is incredibly disrespectful to the victims and requires vociferous pushback. The shooter appears to have been an anti-abortion zealot and a Trump voter. Don't let them avoid this.
This is an egregiously shameful tweet from a US senator

The feds kidnapping and trafficking people is a violent crime. Protesting it is fighting back against abuses of power. The government claiming protestors started the violence is DARVO—Deny, Attack, and Reverse Victim and Offender. It’s what abusers do when they face consequences.

Dan Perry is a warmongering clown. "Israel's strike on Iran was necessary. But for real change, the US must join the fray"? Yeah, MORE WAR! That'll fix it! 🤡

Just change the publication's name to The Backward.

Israel's strike on Iran was necessary. But for real change, the US must join the fray
Israel's attack on Iran provides an opening for the US to push for Tehran to end its reign of terror by proxy in the Middle East.

You know I had to do it. This long-legged beauty is Khankhuuluu mongoliensis, a small (ish) Tyrannosauroid from Late Cretaceous Asia

The description of Khankhuuluu was published just a couple of days ago. The taxon has a mixed suit of basal and derived tyrannosauroid characters
