Yeah You Could Say I’m Doing Numbers On Tumblr. And That Numbers? One

got emotional at work because i imagined a cuttlefish

Rage is consuming me

drama in the mad scientist and wizard communities

DnD campaign where the players get rabies and over time get debuffs and buffs like +STR and -INT and the entire thing is timed until they die or cure the magic rabies

been thinking about fantasy/scifi rule systems and free will

when the jazz has elements of rock n roll

(after misunderstanding what someone said and embarrassing myself) oh great now they hate me and want to kill me with rocks

Today I want to lift up an artist who means not only a lot to me, but likely a lot to many people invested in the paleo scene and the extinct arthropod/anomalocaridid wiki pages, too!

Jun (twitter), also known as Junnn11 on wikipedia. He is a Japanese artist who's work you might've seen if you've visited the anomalocaris/radiodonta wikis

His unique style breathes so much life into these extinct animals with the way they're coloured and posed while also paying close attention to animal's body plan and making sure they appear scientifically accurate! I have a lot of adoration and admiration for these illustrations. But He doesn't limit himself with JUST radiodonts. He's also illustrated a lot of other different animals (here)

I would not have known about these creatures if he hadn't drawn them! But this is not the only work he does. He also makes more detailed diagrams of these animals and their anatomy. He has even made some animations to further bring these creatures alive! (here)

All of this is to say that we owe a lot to this guy's creative mind and abilities and I think his contributions to science deserve to be seen and appreciated by the casual lovers of these creatures too! Please give his Twitter a follow if you have one! Thank you for all the illustrations, animations and diagrams you've made over the years!
