My army grows.

Photo and tattoos by @melancholyjasper.bsky.social, who is a national treasure and loves Burgess shale paleobiota as much as I do.

Photo of three black-and-grey, dotwork-shaded tattoos of Cambrian arthropods done on the outer thigh. From left to right: Anomalocaris (fresh), Olenoides trilobite (healed), Sanctacaris (fresh).

Going through files salvaged from a corrupted SSD and there be gold in them hills

Image: a colour photograph of unknown origin; fields of yellow flowers with a mountain range in the background, under a cloudy grey sky. There appears to be some corruption and/or JPEG artifacting happening at the top of the image.

Text on the left centre of the photograph reads "POST MALONE" in all-caps white sans-serif font.

Get really into dinosaurs. That's my recommendation for a happier life. Each day, I get news like "Look at this big freak that used roam the Earth!" or "Ya know the big freak you already loved? Fossils show it was even more freakish!" and it's a blessing every time.

I do a comic about ornithological vocabulary for every issue of the Cornell Lab of Ornithology's wonderful Living Bird magazine. Here's the latest one, featuring the American Bittern.

A three-panel comic. The first panel is a scrap from a dictionary that says crypsis, noun: patterning or coloration that allows a bird to remain concealed by blending in to its environment. In panel 2, labeled effective crypsis, an american bittern blends in with a marsh full of tall plants. In panel 2, labeled ineffective crypsis, an american bittern fails to blend in among some short plants, next to a wet floor sign, and behind a stop sign.

Imagine reading Matthew 24:36,

“But about that day or hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father”

and then having the hubris to try to predict the end of the world

I thought using “gay” as a synonym for “stupid” died 15+ years ago but here we are, I guess.

It’s often pointed out how people don’t read anymore, how social media has broken our attention spans, and our capacity for critical thinking.

BUT, also, there are still a TON of avid readers in the world, of ALL ages. I know many of them. Let’s not forget to celebrate, and take comfort in, that.

I know it's easy to get lost in the noise, anger, depression and hate of these dark times, but you matter, you're important - even if you can't see it - and I'm glad you're here.
