I personally believe the main reason that we haven't had a modern dinosaur film that's better than Jurassic Park is because JP is all about how we see dinosaurs. I can think of few blockbusters that are as focused on reinventing how the audience perceives a subject.

Cool fact. Museums have low worker retention & tend to pay very little. Due to understaffing, you usually are given a lot of responsibilities (engagement, collections, grants), and work informal unpaid additional hours. You tend to work during holidays. More responsibilities for low pay. Dreamy.

Please support LGBTQIA+ artist~~~ ...like me.

People keep using "it is happening to CIS women!" as a wake-up call but, not to scold, it's also bad when it happens to trans women. It's a fucking wild thing to do, to yell and threaten someone in a toilet.

Happy Pride Month to all who celebrate, are part of those communities, or simply share the values it represents. I’m afraid this is the closest I’ve got to a rainbow dinosaur. I hope it suffices! 🙏

So much of the pandemic was us finding out life actually could be easier and better and more accessible, and then watching them peel every scrap of that back out of our hands & lives, often for incoherent reasons. (return to office!)

trump's "skill" in making deals has always been based on one thing: his ability to refuse to honor the deal he just made he'll agree to do something and then just not do it and dare you to impose consequences on him for it if you can actually do that, well

so many trans people are struggling through the onslaught, feeling like there’s no hope and they’ll be trapped in a tortuous dysphoria hellscape forever or worse it is so important for you to be SURE your trans friends know YOU love them, will fight for them, and need them in your life

Horrifying. I hate this so much that if this becomes a thing and you share 1 second of it even to mock it or criticize it then I’ll block you. You can talk about it without providing examples gleaned from interacting with it. It should not exist. Help make it not exist by erasing it from reality.

Went to the Carnegie Museum of Natural History for my birthday yesterday, so naturally that means a photo thread!

Gotta love when the universe acknowledges you.

The next time a director says bullshit like this, I want the interviewer to ask: "If AI was around when you made your other films, which artists would you have fired?" I mean it. Name real fucking names. Of all the brilliant people you worked with, who do you think doesn't deserve a job anymore?

QTP with a robot that's not from Star Wars or Transformers

one of my favorite videos oat i rewatch it at least three times every time i see it. the northern licker

i understand all the legislative practicalities but honestly the biggest obstacle to democratic presidents doing stuff has been the democratic party. you can gnash teeth all you want but trump has shown us how much the dems just refused to do when they had power. and we should never accept it again

News from the Dalek Broadcasting Corporation, as impartial as ever. #DoctorWho

BREAKING: Rear Axle have also withdrawn from the Freedom 259 celebration.

I just can’t anymore. Needless wars, people starving, jobs disappearing, and these STUPID FUCKS are full on speedrunning Court of the Sun King into the French Revolution.

capitalism is so good at innovation it invented brand new ways of destroying nature

this pre-coffee thought from a few years ago was always one of my favorites, and i still think about this sometimes how that’s all art is, communication and connection, with each other and with the entire history of humanity “ai” could never

It makes my day a little better to see artists "experimenting" with genAI get rightfully dunked on by thousands of people. Now, if only this sentiment could carry over into the biodiversity and natural history world, where genAI is no less useless and destructive, but it's illegal to be rude.

Today’s four random pieces of palaeoart: Charles Knight’s Tyrannosaurus, Neave Parker’s Triceratops, Emiliano Troco’s Europasaurus, and James Field’s Iguanodon and carnosaur!

omg this 🎯

Oh this is gonna be fun

GenAI creators are not creators.

i don't want it now i don't want it when it looks better i don't want it even though celebs shill for it i don't want it despite the billions spent to push it i don't want to look at it, read it, talk to it, deal with it i just don't want to interface with it in any way, simple as

I cordially detest this notion that a billion dollars can actually be earned. it cannot. It just can't, and we have to get over this. If you made $1,000 an hour, it would take you almost 500 years of 40 hour work weeks to make a billion. you can't earn that number.

Mentally I'm here

it's destroying communities. not in the abstract "it's bad for the environment" sense, in the literally observable immediate sense. usage of it is tantamount to violence against your own neighbors, and it should be treated as the antisocial behavior that it actually is

actually i kinda *do* think using genAI should be such a social faux pas that the user is marked as a pariah and no longer feels welcome in the community. "AI is bad" is no longer an abstract (it never was), my city has been under a boil water advisory for a week because of AI data centers

Today’s painting ❤️

You can show me all the charts you want saying the economy is fine but if Serpentor is selling his throne because it won't fit into his new studio apartment, shit is not fine

“The Al is not just telling you what you want to hear. It is training you, one conversation at a time, to need less friction, expect more agreement, and become slightly less capable of handling a situation where someone pushes back on you”

Happy Orthodox Star Wars Day! Here’s to all the artists that brought that universe to life, and inspired the rest of us who wanted to play in it…

Share a 2000s TV show you love

I’m going to hold your hand while I say this. If a marginalized person asks you to do something differently, the response is not to blow up and ask them why they’re riding your back when those guys aren’t even trying to do better. They’re asking you because they think you’re somewhat open-minded.

Went to an anti AI datacentre protest march today and a friend of mine got a picture that summed it all up

I must be super evolved then because I understand very well that Google is trying to build an agentic wall around the entire internet with the ultimate goal of users paying to access it and data owners paying to contribute to it.

It's #worldturtleday! Shellebrate our chelonian friends!

Noppy's art is always so wonderful to see, like a slice of happiness.

As a science fiction writer I really fucking resent tech bros for ruining the phrase "artificial intelligence." 80 years of it being all about cool androids and interesting computers destroyed by five years of "Spicy autocorrect making everything shittier for money." NEVER FORGIVE.
