review the games you play if you want more indie games. even a single review can help an indie studio. and if you go through someone's catalogue and review several....? it helps so much more than you can imagine for small games.

this is still the realest thing ever said about america

Morning.

It's #FossilFriday! Here are zooms into my "Deep Blue Buffet" painting (Part 2), for The Etches Collection. Featured are a dead sauropod, #SeaRex #Hybodus #Hypsocormus #Metriorhynchus #Aspidorhynchus & #Allothrissops #SciArt #PaleoArt #MarineReptiles #Pliosaurs #Jurassic #JurassicWorld #Pliosaurus

Exciting news! I was interviewed by @currentbiology.bsky.social for their Q & A section, where I talk about the future of palaeontology, dangers of AI in education, social media and science communication. Featuring, my doodles! cell.com/current-biology/fulltext/S0960-9822(25)01552-0

🐶Growing up too fast

We need MORE science communicators doing good science communication, because boy oh boy are there a lot of grifters and pseudoscientists out there now. Watch this conversation between @flintdibble.bsky.social and Professor Dave (is Dave on BSky?) www.youtube.com/watch?v=8b8c... #scicomm

Endangered Species of the Philippines 🇵🇭

Everyone say "I love you, Bem" OR ELSE.

The marine facility of Paleoparque de Lisboa is slowly expanding, the largest animal of this developing section being Styxosaurus! Her name is Bubbles, after her tendency to exhale small bubbles in front of the glass near guests. Nobody knows why she does this, but it sure is cute! Art by Luzim.

Oh hi guys!

Fake spiderwebs are a micro (and macro)plastic deathtrap. I would advise never using them www.smh.com.au/environment/...

Preview of my latest #paleoart piece: a baby bison flees the deadliest predator of Ice Age Europe. Harrowing, harrowing stuff.

Bog friends

Do you think Grevy's Zebras are neat? Do you think I can run 10k in a few weeks despite barely training for it? If either of the answers to those questions is yes, then please consider chucking a few quid towards the fundraiser. I might buy you a beer afterwards...if I survive. Cheers!

A aum sits down on the steps of his apartment to take a smoke break away from his family. He looks across the street at a pair of teenage boys making a ruckus and scratches his neck in annoyance. He’s told them off a hundred times before in his mind, but they’re asking for another telling off…

New #paleoart for #FossilFriday: someone spilt a load of Neave Parker all over this painting of Styracosaurus. Whoops. (I should really draw some ceratopsids found this century, but the Styracosaurus silhouette remains awesome, 112 years post-discovery. Note the non-speculated frill asymmetry.)

Dracovita: Leaf Eels #digitalart #worldbuilding #fish #dracovita

forgot to post them lol, been making some leaf eel models n animating em so i don't get rusty. #blockbench #dracovita #minecraft #fish #fishart

Just for fun, some #paleoart of Ichthyosaurus communis predating belemnites. I deliberately left the brushwork on this one a little looser than usual to give a sense of speed and movement. #sciart #ichthyosaur #fossil #paleontology

Forest Path

The Salotian rhinoceros (Sphenorhinus acerus) has long occupied a contentious placement within the rhinoceros family tree. However, a landmark paper by Reyes et al. last year delivered a surprising verdict for the phylogenetic placement of these island rhinos. #salotum #specevo #worldbuilding

As facultative bipeds, most brubafa find it easier to walk on all fours. This necessitates a hand covering that is easily removable, yet sturdy & sanitary. Handshoes are one such solution, with findings suggesting they were first crafted over 140,000 years ago #salotum #specevo #worldbuilding

The Aputsum of Salotum have readily adopted many human customs since their island was opened up to the outside world in 1875. One newfound pastime is basketball. Though less stable on two legs, brubafa can still move rapidly and deftly in a bipedal stance. #Salotum #specbio #specevo #worldbuilding

Though nowhere near as expansive as human conflicts, brubafa warfare is well documented, particularly in Salotum’s Aputsum people. Rarely equipped in more than light armor, those of high status adorned their garbs with jewel beetles to further augment their opulence.

Brubafa are born less altricial than humans and gain motor skills such as walking within a few days after birth. For this reason, they can be quite a handful for parents and caregivers!

It’s very hard to dislike dogs! Although dogs are usually more responsive to human body language, they can form close relationships with brubafa nonetheless. Here, an older paim from Kerala proudly shows off her beloved “grand-dog”.

Welcome to the official Government of Salotum BlueSky account. In an era of misinformation and strife, we hope to use this platform to better educate the internet about our humble island nation. You can find our media brief below. #salotum #speculativeevolution #worldbuilding

“Mangoes for sale!” Mangoes are a treat no matter the species! Many rural brubafa rely on staple crops such as mango, breadfruit, and coconuts, not only as sustenance but to make a living too. Here a paim reclines as afternoon sales lull and starts making some new skewers for the after-work rush.

With a caloric intake in excess of 20,000 kilocalories every day, many brubafa tend home gardens to save on grocery bills and provide themselves with produce they can pickle. Fermentation is widely practiced to preserve food and maintain palatability in the tropical regions most brubafa call home.

The enigmatic Jakapil kaniukura, a really weird armored ornithischian dinosaur from the earliest part of the Late Cretaceous of South America #paleoart #dinosaurs #jakapil

A New Age of Reptiles: The Spiny Snurg Along with its charismatic megafauna, the alternate timeline of the New Age of Reptiles is home to an unimaginable diversity of smaller animals. One notable example is the Spiny Snurg, a chunky herbivorous scincomorphan lizard from northern Africa. (1/5)

My TL is filled with politics, furries and baby goats (not complaining about the last one and no hate to furries) WHERE ARE THE FUCKING DINOSAURS!?

Compiled all 5 chapters of the Saga of Tenir'ha and Baru into a single episode! Nothing new here except the introduction, but having it all together might help new folks find it: www.youtube.com/watch?v=88JI... Art by @shinygander.bsky.social

Once again it's been a very long time, and this isn't my usual Rain World post but I like these two a lot so I'm going to post them here, I hope you guys think they're cool too

My very first #paleoart commission- Diplocaulus! I believe this was made around 2017-2018 #sciart
