Ah yes, America is the only place where they have bills and cops. Everywhere that has civilian uprising you've seen through history has those things, it's not meant to be a fun night out, the fact that you've basically said "it's not easy so we won't do it" speaks volumes. you have to fight for it.

In 1946, just as now, they knew. They knew, and in their complacency did nothing. "It would spark a civil war," I'm sure they said. The few voices brave enough to speak out were silenced, as they are now. Nobody collectively tried to stop it, just like now. They knew, and did nothing, just like now.

IDK which employers need to hear this, probably all of them at this point, but unless you work in an ER, there cannot constantly be an emergency. This is not how emergencies work.

Something about flipping off the oncoming Wankpanzer that just so happens to pass by while you're listening to "Killing In the Name" on the radio just feels natural.

We found this fantastic old colour shot, possibly taken at some point between the end of the 1960s to mid-1970s. Zoom in for the interesting eye paint of the iguanodon, and a pretty mucky megalosaurus - which may have been just about to enter its "red paint" phase.. www.flickr.com/photos/found...

your response to “I was raped” should not be “I was right”
4 panel comic

Panel 1:
A Purple Woman looks distraught, on the verge of breaking down. She says “that man raped me”
Orange Guy standing next to her is absent-mindedly checking his nails. He says “Wellll, I’ve always disliked him and his work.”

Panel 2:
Purple Woman begins to cry. Orange Guy adopts an incredibly smug expression and says “Guess I must just be a good judge of character”

Panel 3: 
Purple Woman dissolves into sobs. Orange  Guy notices, puts his hand on her shoulder and says “Aw”

Panel 4:
Purple Woman crumples to the floor. Orange Guy, looking bemused, asks “Are you crying because you’re jealous of how smart I am?”

People who think Trump's power can still be restrained by good will and his respect for the nation's institutions are either stupid, died during his first term, or are Trumpers.

Today's four random pieces of palaeoart: Bernard Long's Andrewsarchus, Brian Franczak's Nanotyrannus, Dmitry Bogdanov's Edaphosaurus, and Steve Kirk's Apatosaurus!
A long, low-slung, wolf-like Andrewsarchus with a coat resembling a red fox. It trots across a rocky hill carrying a bone in its toothy jaws.A pair of gracile, small tyrannosaurs stand in a tangled forest. One looks in the direction of the viewer, while the other looks off at something out of view. One has a pattern composed of chocolate brown and creamy white, while the other complements this with a blue throat, yellow brow, and black-streaked head. A green Edaphosaurus with a bright red sail rests atop an outcrop in a steamy swamp. A forest of enormous horsetails forms a backdrop.A hefty, blue-grey Apatosaurus walks through a sandy clearing in a cycad forest. Its broad neck sweeps to its left, taking notice of some low-lying greenery. Its whip-like tail flicks behind it, moving in sinuous curls.

I love this picture because of the story it tells about how fossil specimens (and the mixed media sculptures that incorporate them) travel among different museums. The two flanking Gorgosaurus are still at AMNH, but the one in the middle was traded to the Smithsonian in 1933.

Remember how, if asked, new Yorkers would say not to ever vote for trump? I'm a Chicagolander: Do NOT vote for Rahm. He was dumb enough to actually hire Musk's Boring co to drill tunnels through the existing tunnels under Chicago, for a drive to ohare, when there's ALREADY a train.

The press coverage of the Academy of Natural Sciences has gone from "Oh how sad" to sounding like a hostage negotiation. Which maybe sounds bad, but elected leaders, the press, the people online, all saying "You don't have to do this, man" is better than mourning. share.inquirer.com/YTQg0s

The potential for chaos is building. I'm telling you, after the election win or lose, half the country will lose their minds and Trump will definitely attempt to finalize his grip on total absolute power. The election doesn't save us, it's only a milestone.

A perplexing photo of the AMNH rotunda Barosaurus. Is it a trick of the lighting, or was there a time when this cast was painted something other than Morrison gray? The single platform and advertisement for an "interactive audio CD-ROM" dates this image to the early to mid-90s, I'd say.
Rearing Barosaurus skeleton in an ornate rotunda. Shares a platform with charging Allosaurus skeleton. Allosaurus is normal Morrison gray buy the Barosaurus is ivory-tan.Same display as it appears today. The Allosaurus and Barosaurus now stand on seperate platforms to improve traffic flow. Barosaurus adult and juvenile are now the same gray as Allosaurus.

It's #FossilFriday, and indeed the final scheduled Friday that the Academy of Natural Sciences of Philadelphia is open to the public, potentially forever. So it's finally time to, once again, talk about Haddy — and bring it all full circle. Strap in, it's a big one.
