I'm serializing one of my favorite stories from "A Star Called The Sun" over on webtoons, leading up to the book's release. Called "The Anchoress", it concerns a young scribe, a missing robot, and a mountain abbey filled with rowdy nuns... Follow along here:

Despite being ill I think this first formation
#paleostream
of the year turned out pretty good. The Upper Elliot Formation from the early Jurassic of South Africa is an important piece for our understanding of sauropod evolution but beyond that it's just a really cool assemblage...

The first flocking
#Paleostream
of 2026: speculative new discoveries that we hope to see this year. Intermediate/half-way-there pterosaur, ancestral bat, late-surviving radiodont, and arthropleura-size house centipede were the chosen prompts, which were all very fun to ponder and draw.

which shows that in Hell Creek there were giant Prognathodon mosasaurs that were living in freshwater (not just visiting)
