This game was a huge influence on me and specifically informed Expedition Nebraska, the interactive museum I produced for Nebraska Public Media: nebraskapublicmedia.org/en/nebraska-...

Expedition Nebraska

Experience prehistoric Nebraska and ‘meet’ animals that lived and died during millions of years on the Great Plains.

today's hardware designers could never conceive of what Kazuo Kawasaki was doing in 1996

A colorful retro computer setup featuring a purple keyboard, a small teal touchpad, and a teal circular CD-ROM drive with a matching keypad-style controller resting on top. The hardware is arranged against a dark background in a vivid purple-and-turquoise color scheme.

On Earth 2, we can't believe how good the new HBO Animorphs show looks. "They nailed the morphing," people enthuse. The nonbinary actor playing Ax's human morph is cutting it up on the Las Culturistas podcast. The actress playing Rachel has handcuffed herself to a data center

July's being called "Disability Pride Month", which is neat. As a cerebral palsy patient and epileptic, I want to take a beat to remind people of something important that we seem to be forgetting: Anybody who uses terms like "r*tard" does in fact deserve a slow demise alone at the bottom of a ditch.

I’m excited to be able to share this news with you all. I’ve been commissioned by University of Nebraska State Museum to illustrate a book telling the story of Archie - the famous (and largest) Columbian mammoth. (1/4)

An illustration of a large Columbian mammoth (close relative of the more wooly variety!) splashing through a stream against the backdrop of a stormy sky.

Spotted at the Field Museum's #Pokémon exhibit—a Protoceratops from Montana? (I think FMNH P 12003 is actually a Triceratops specimen.)

A cast skull of Protoceratops, on display at the Field Museum in Chicago.

A closer image of the label on the display. It reads "Protoceratops andrewsi 83-70 million years ago (Cretaceous) Montana FMNH P 12003."

Some may remember Cosmo, my beloved parrot, who I lost in 2024, and this superhero design in his honor, brought to life by @stickasaurus.bsky.social. I finally got around to editing some nice photos of the finished design, based on the 1991 series 𝘊𝘩𝘰𝘫𝘪𝘯 𝘚𝘦𝘯𝘵𝘢𝘪 𝘑𝘦𝘵𝘮𝘢𝘯. The result is pretty cool!

A green tokusatsu-style superhero with a cool scarf posing in front of an overgrown ruin featuring a parrot statue. A real parrot flies dramatically over his right shoulder.

One hopes images like this, when paired with the knowledge that everything we burn ends up in that tiny slice of gasses, would help contextualize why we need to move away from energy sources we set on fire. One hopes. Climate communicators should make some hay of this.

"Is there technology the left is excited about?" is the kind of question you only ask if you're wildly naive about technology. mRNA vaccines. Heat pumps. Offshore wind. Urban mining. Sodium batteries. But god forbid we're not fawning over every new implementation of Making Computers Bad At Math.

Founders of modern paleontology, and their contributions to systemic racism, classism and sexism (🧵) Henry Osborn (1857–1935), responsible for naming of Tyrannosaurus & Velociraptor; president of ANHM. Co-founder of the American Eugenics Society. Contributing to books later praised by Hitler.

The first attempt to reconstruct Tyrannosaurus rex, in the 1905 paper in which Osborn named it and a panel mount of the skeleton (middle), from the 1916 paper in which Osborn described and named it.

Art doesn’t take talent. It’s skill. Skill that you cultivate and shape how best suits you. You want to make photorealistic fine art? Yeah that will take time and work to achieve. But you’re also an artist when you doodle, when you sketch, when you make bad art that doesn’t meet your expectations.

I think part of what's not working for me is the camera movement. Everything's precisely timed, there's no sense of an operator waiting and watching and keeping up with the unpredictable behavior of wild animals.

Hmm, sounds like we need a refresher. The issue of whether everyone's favorite long-neck is called Brontosaurus or Apatosaurus (or both) has *nothing* to do with which skull was historically included on museum mounts! 🧵#FossilFriday
