Mr-glomeroporphyritic - Expect Nothing

Do you love the Eras of the Earth?

Which One?

It's not even clear here🥲🥲😭

wait are chickens actually decended from t-rexes or is it just a comedic pairing

Chickens and T. rex share a recent common ancestor, more recent than T. rex shares with Stegosaurus or Brontosaurus/Apatosaurus

Chickens did not descend from T. rex, because T. rex is a very specialized and derived dinosaur

However, they - and all other birds, because all birds are in a single group - descended from small raptorial dinosaurs like Velociraptor. And, the common ancestor of Velociraptor and all birds (including chickens) could fly

And since birds descend from the same common ancestor as all other dinosaurs, they're dinosaurs.

Just because we aren't seeing more posts about Palestine, doesn't mean the genocide has stopped. Let's keep Praying and speaking up for Gaza, Palestine.

I have another paleontology joke for y’all!

Why did Archaeopteryx catch the worm?

Because it was an early bird!

Its that time of night again when my body gets really cold to tell me to go to bed and instead i put on a hoodie and continue to research magma

i love grocery shopping!!! The best parts are when my hands go numb and my heart and lungs get to play jump rope!!!!

Daily affirmations for Paleontologists and people of similar professions: You CAN create a video tapping rocks/artifacts whispering "paleontology/(your field of study here)" I believe in you
