3 days later, the Horner - Epstein timeline has been viewed 114,000 times. Thanks to everyone who shared to help ensure that this information was not buried. I do not have power to enact change on my own, but I do have the research skills to bring facts to light.

3 hours ago, I shared my results of having combed through ~470 DOJ Epstein files that mention Jack Horner, his MSU email, or "Dinochicken". I posted a copy, w/ screenshots and receipts, to r/Paleontology. It has been pinned by moderators and thus far viewed 38k times. www.reddit.com/r/Paleontolo...

Post is now sitting at 58,000 views... people are demanding an adequate response from @societyofvertpaleo.bsky.social A commenter has pointed to Ghislane's 7/25 testimony (p. 241) which places the Maxwell/Epstein/Kennedy/Horner North Dakota dig back in 1993-1994!!! www.justice.gov/storage/audi...

I've heard there's a meeting for @societyofvertpaleo.bsky.social tomorrow. Hopefully they're planning on responding to this in more earnest than their email this morning.

It's Microstream Monday! Today, I am photographing specimens of Leveilleites, a type of ancient algae. These fossils come from the Nurmekund Formation of Estonia, and date back 437 million years, to the Silurian Period! www.youtube.com/watch?v=tf9w...

There is no man, no scientist, no legacy that is so important that they cannot face consequences for their actions. There is no research that is so important that it must be carried out, even if it can only be done with funding from wealthy pedophiles. Rescind Horner's Romer-Simpson medal. Ban him

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.

(11) In 2013, Horner was awarded the Romer-Simpson Medal by the @societyofvertpaleo.bsky.social (its highest honor). I was at the meeting and saw his acceptance speech. Given this, I would urge those still in SVP to perhaps call on the Society to RESCIND the Medal and suspend his membership...

Nope, the date says this is after Epstein’s 2008 conviction in Florida. Funding is hard to come by, but there was no reason not to know Epstein was a problematic funding source in 2012.

Jack Horner in the Epstein File trying to raise money to fund dinosaur research. When I discovered we had rich nazis on our dig in 2008, I dropped them like a rancid turd; ask Don. There will never be a Trumpasaurus with my name attached! @paleontologizing.bsky.social @utahpaleo-ufop.bsky.social

Today, I am photographing two specimens of Cooksonia, one of the earliest land plants known! They are approximately 423 million years old, hailing from what is now Poland in eastern Europe. www.youtube.com/live/Reuzqpx...

Did you know? I'm on display at the Arizona Museum of Natural History! youtube.com/shorts/_nkn3...

Today is another photography day on Microstream! I will be examining several examples of the trilobite Amphyxina bellatula, which were recovered from the Orodovician-aged Maquoketa Formation of Missouri. www.youtube.com/watch?v=cyzq...

Today, for my first Microstream of 2026, I'll be photographing lanternfish fossils. These little guys are around 10 million years old and come from Los Angeles County, California! www.youtube.com/watch?v=N-0J...

Virtual Museum UPDATE: 7 New Exhibits! SHADOWBOX Beta 1.65 Dev Stream www.youtube.com/live/Y94P-Mg...

It's out! A brand new update for SHADOWBOX has dropped with seven new exhibits to explore, including: -3 new Cretaceous galleries -First Silurian & Paleocene galleries -First Australian gallery Check out the full patch notes: store.steampowered.com/news/app/299...

A big update for SHADOWBOX is nearly here... are you ready to explore some new exhibits?

Closing out my year with a journal editor shocker 🧵 Checking new manuscripts today I reviewed a paper attributing 2 papers to me I did not write. A daft thing for an author to do of course. But intrigued I web searched up one of the titles and that's when it got real weird...

For the 50th Microstream, I'll be taking some photos of blind trilobites from the ancient Wheeler Shale of Utah! www.youtube.com/live/xnOt_xq...

Just updated my SHADOWBOX player map to include some new additions. In recent months, we've picked up our first players in Algeria, Slovenia, Guatemala, and Uruguay! Here's aiming to close out Year 1 of beta testing with 500 total players... 🤞

A spoonful of Menefee helps the Monday go by! For my microstream this week, I'm looking at 80 million year old sand under my microscope, for the next hour, in hopes that we find some fish teeth... www.youtube.com/live/AHEwUS_...

It's time for a Microstream! This week, I'm sifting through yet more 80-million-year-old sediment, which last time yielded this fish tooth... www.youtube.com/live/nGbzLCW...

& also, I might be working on a virtual exhibit to help visually tell the story of Glossopteris as well...

Just out this morning, a special (& free) bonus blog for Halloween: The Ghost of Glossopteris www.patreon.com/posts/bonus-... This is a spooky tale about extinction, climate change, and our obligation to protect the living world.

In case you missed it, here's the recording of Monday's stream showing what's new in my FREE virtual museum project! www.youtube.com/watch?v=iD4z... #fossils #UE5

Showing off what's new in my virtual museum as of the most recent update! SHADOWBOX Virtual Museum Update | Beta 1.55 Devstream www.youtube.com/watch?v=EVTP...

A new update for SHADOWBOX is out now (Windows Beta 1.55)! There are some new fossils on display, such as this dinosaur eggshell... store.steampowered.com/news/app/299...

AI is BS

It's time for another Microstream, LIVE for the next hour! Today, I'm sifting through some 80 million year old sediment in search of teeth, bones, and shells. www.youtube.com/live/sMSwHbG...

Doing another mini-microstream for the next 30 minutes! Today, I'm taking continuing tophotos of fossils from the Bangor Limestone of Alabama; this is a marine deposit that dates back 330 million years old! www.youtube.com/watch?v=vW-5...

This week, I'm doing a shorter 30 minute stream to take photographs of fossils from the Bangor Limestone. This is a Mississippian (~330 million year old) deposit that preserves the fossils of many delicate sea animals! www.youtube.com/watch?v=QYXN...

It's #Microstream Monday! This week, I'm continuing to clean a dinosaur bone under the microscope. This fossil was just recently collected from the Menefee Formation of New Mexico, and is around 80 million years old. www.youtube.com/live/mhbbC1P...

LIVE for the next hour! Today for #microstream I'm cleaning up a dinosaur bone collected just last month from the Menefee Formation of New Mexico: www.youtube.com/live/mr33Q2k...

Today marks 3 years since I launched the Parent-Teacher Guide to Paleontology on Patreon! In that time, I've published: -202,174 words of material utilizing 1,175 scientific sources -65 Expedition Videos -42 Microstreams -1 really awesome virtual museum! www.patreon.com/posts/ptpale...

Microstream is back with a new scope light! For one more week I'm sorting through sediments collected from the Menefee Formation - Cliff House Sandstone contact. www.youtube.com/live/1xxqj5Y...

In case you missed the stream, here's my devlog video for SHADOWBOX Beta 1.4! What's new in this update? Four exhibits (Kaibab Limestone, Moenkopi Formation, Thaynes Group, Blue Lias), a free camera mode, and paleogeographic maps! youtu.be/XfjV_ZX9U1Q?...

Hard at work preparing the next SHADOWBOX update, set to release with FOUR new exhibits! Here is a sneak peek at the Moenkopi Formation, a rock unit that dates back to the Triassic Period...

Spending some time under the scope for Microstream Monday! www.youtube.com/watch?v=VGiz...

Sneak peek at the updated SHADOWBOX lobby! Next update (Windows Beta 1.4) should be pushed in the next week or so...

An integral part of museum exhibit design is hiding pride flags everywhere

Where in the world are SHADOWBOX players? This is a map of (the majority of*) beta testers to date. It's incredible to me that folks around the world have gotten up close and personal with #fossils primarily from here in the Southwest, including many that I've collected myself! 👀 Alt text for list.

Throwback to when I got transvestigated in the YouTube comments of a Menefee Expedition video

It's Microstream Monday! Today, I'm using a small tool to clean dirt from the pores of a Deinosuchus osteoderm- this is fossilized armor from a very large Cretaceous croc! Live NOW! www.youtube.com/live/ZckxkcG...
