Another thing is that both lineages (even just their crown groups) are both very old and outlasted numerous other predator lineages, both on land and sea. Both still compete or interact (sometimes fatally) with other predators, though.

The Homo species are dying. Share if you are a true Homo.

Big news for the vaquita porpoise, the most endangered sea mammal! 💙 The time is now to come together to try and save these animals! I believe fully art can help bring awareness. Join us on Oct 25th for Save the Vaquita Day! #SaveTheVaquita #SciArt #MarineMammals

increasingly convinced preventing americans from getting their little packages is the thing that will take this government down

Therizinosaurs are, without a doubt, some of the most interesting groups of theropod dinosaurs Here you have a selection of a few species that I reconstructed for the Fukui Prefectural Dinosaur Museum in Japan for their 25th Anniversary Special Exhibition #paleoart #sciart #dinosaurs

Museums of the future. A digital aquarium tunnel of the Triassic marine life, at the Geological Museum of Guizhou, China.

I really should post about my OCs more....

why are rich people so damn boring? if I had all the money in the world I would create my very own animation studio, pay all my employees really well and have them animate my favourite fanfictions

The Trump ethos is very much ”foreigners suck, go USA,“ so proTrump people will cheer any sneering at or insulting of foreigners, whether they are allies or not, because they have such a juvenile concept of the world.

Just a reminder before the “big announcement” today. Autism was discovered in 1911 and the modern definition of Autism came in 1943. Tylenol wasn’t widely used until the 1950s. Anyone trying to tell you that Tylenol causes Autism isn’t someone that should be taken seriously.

Cancelling Disney to stop fascism reminds me of bringing my own bags to the grocery store to save the environment. I mean I’m on board but like… we all gonna need to stretch a bit more too I think.

I cannot emphasize this enough: The regime has overextended itself. It is vulnerable to protest and dissent. They have not consolidated power and we are entirely capable of keeping them from doing so. Doomers are not realists.

People want everything to be a binary between dooming and “we’re so back” but I’ll just say this is both a really troubling attack on press freedom and an open admission that your regime is fragile enough to feel threatened by Jimmy fucking Kimmel

It needs to be said that by rebranding Charlie Kirk's views as moderate by both right wingers and liberal cowards resets the extremist views he held as normal and pushes the Overton window to the far right

Pointing out Charlie Kirk's hate speech is not hate speech. It's objective reporting. Apologize to Matthew Dowd and rehire him. A full-throated embrace of genocide is hate speech – beyond all measure. Fire Brian Kilmeade. Immediately.

We’ve been living through 72 nonstop hours of this exact tweet

It’s not “encouraging free speech and debate” when your “debate” career consists of you posting selectively edited footage of your “debates” that always frames you as the winner and harasses your opponents in the process and also matches whatever ideological framing gets you the most AdSense dollars

Fans of sabertooth and scimitar cats- and just ancient mammals in general- are gonna be eatin’ GOOD soon. #SurvivingEarth #PrehistoricPlanet

I seriously don't know how to explain to people that it is not in fact a sign of maturity and democracy to peacefully debate whether certain groups of people should be allowed to exist

"Don't mock or you'll be deported" is the mark of a weak, decadent nation, a petty and insecure failure unworthy of respect.

Gamergate really did a whammy on us, culturally, huh.

Imagine being such a piece of shit that more people are mourning a Japanese race horse that lost every single race over you.

It is weird that the assassination of essentially a celebrity influencer is a bigger deal than the shooting of two top state legislators + their spouses

The MSNBC commentator saying that most political violence has historically come from the left just once again showed how we suffer from failing to learn history. Lynching, pogroms, race riots, the political violence that ended Reconstruction, and against the Civil Rights Movement. Come on.

over time I believe this will end up being one of the most unpopular things the administration ever does a death sentence for many hobbies and all the average consumer sees is that you’re taking away all their bargains one of the few policies that has a direct negative effect on almost everyone

idgaf if an artist is charging $1000 for a sketch. art is a luxury good, if people are buying it it’s not overpriced

I am opposed to AI products and services because of the extra power they require... IN A CLIMATE CRISIS. I am opposed to AI results - texts and illustrations - because they've been created unethically, via theft and non-consensual use of the work of others. Share if you agree.

#SciArtSeptember 6 - Prairie The greatest beasts are gone, but maybe the land still remembers. Another version of the idea of ghosts of lost beasts, this time the spirit of a mammoth walking with a bison somewhere in the fragments of the American prairie that still exist.

Really not enjoying the combination of “nobody has a job” and “everything is expensive now”

I have gotten in hot water for using the term "failed state" to describe the US as there are historical conditions that have to be met for the term to be accurate, so let's just say we're in the on-deck circle

I know posting excerpts from 1984 is passé but this is literally the fifth page of 1984

people ask why no one reads articles anymore and why everyone is relying on ai to summarize everything it's because it's coming from the top. google now relegates actual news stories to a side tab in a drop down menu with the first thing you see being the ai summary. this is so bad

The NRA buys off Congress. No action on guns. The oil industry buys off Congress. No action on climate. Insurance companies buy off Congress. No action on health care. The list goes on and on. Money in politics is the root of our dysfunction.

🪬🧿 There is no amount of money, oil, or gold in the world that is worth more than having bees, trees, and clean water.

FUCK YEAH SCIENCE arstechnica.com/science/2025...

all of this makes total sense when you recognize that “freedom” here means the freedom to dominate those you view as your subordinates and “tyranny” is when someone threatens that “freedom” or worse, when those subordinates try to claim power as political equals

the complete embrace of nihilism and the rejection of being genuine is the greatest danger to humanity right now

I don't want to repost the awful stuff in that Chat GPT suicide case. But I will say that Chat GPT should be destroyed, financially and legally. The data centers should be disassembled and recycled. Sam Altman should go to prison.

I think we should make every branch of the military pick up garbage. They signed up to serve their county and they should get around to doing it some time

they should invent articles you cannot share without reading first

when adults say “we shouldnt let kids transition bc theyre too confused and dont know who they are” it tells me those adults are confused, have no internal sense of who they are, and cannot accept that literal children have achieved a degree of maturity and self-actualization they themselves havent
