“The whole business with
the fossilized
dinosaur skeletons
was a joke the paleontologists
haven't seen yet.”
..it went right over his head
It's clearly added. There are no fossils in that cement. And now it's certainly been covered with modern day cement. Hiding Evidence. Here's the real data. No blocks come from the head. but there's a mushroom shaped recarved limestone underneath the few inches of cement.
February 19, 1792, birthday of Roderick Impey Murchison, geologized in old Scotland. Based on his observations of fossils he proposed a new geologic period between the Ordovician & Devonian naming it Silurian after an ancient tribe in Wales

I have an awful habit of just outright deleing old work (cringe I know), but somehow I was able to dig up this fossil from the remnants of an ancient tumblr account. I wasn't able to salvage the original so a blurry screenshot will do. I remember making it in MS Paint.
"You should have known the Sus shrimp was fake! It was so obvious!"
Fuckers, if I dismissed every fossil animal because it seemed fake, I wouldn't believe in any of these either.
I guess this isn’t really a bad take, but I was thinking about it earlier. I miss when Fossil Pokemon were based off ancient lesser known animals (like marine invertebrates) instead of dinosaurs. Plenty of regular Pokemon look like dinosaurs, so it feels redundant. https://t.co/DfJJFOPLYQ
Appearently no one made a fossil Pokémon based on the newly discovered thylacocephalan sussocaris found in Sussex which used its claws to dig up worms

Varied spinosaurid #paleoart for #FossilFriday to celebrate the announcement that @Dave_Hone and I are working on a book on this group for @BloomsburyBooks. Don't hold your breath - it won't be out until 2025 - but you can commence getting a little excited right.... now.
@Boaz1951 Middle Cambrian ... my favorite time.

Poi lo abbiamo fatto davvero l’amore
un amore lungo uno scalpiccio ventricolare
quello dei resuscitati degli eccitati vinti
Non possediamo niente a parte il nome
e la carne fossile di qualche ricordo

I like teaching #Evolution of Cambrian oddities!
Read about a new fossil: Mieridduryn ("bramble snout" in Welsh) for its spiky proboscis.
