Each of these tableaus communicates something scientists know about the animals’ behavior and how they interacted with their environment—even if visitors don’t read a single word on the panels.

On the Ice Age theme, I love the nonverbal stories told by these NMNH displays.

A woolly mammoth clears snow off the grass with its curved tusks, a family of humans is startled by a stalking saber tooth…

Getting excited... for #FossilFriday ! Our Morrison Ankylosaur monograph may be published online in a week. Hopefully, this will lead to a fix in many ankylosaur phylogenies. A dozen known Morrison ankylosaur sites spanning 4 states. Who would have think it 35 years ago?

#FossilFriday: admittedly, I saw this Tuesday and not today, but look at this AWESOME pterosaur (Rhamphorhynchus muensteri) at display in Eichstätt. Made the Archaeopteryx next exhibit appear almost bleak 😜

Welcome back to #FossilFriday

Here is a piece of limestone with beautiful Rafinesquina trentonensis brachiopods I collected from the Upper Ordovician (Katian) in Jefferson County, Missouri. These rocks are age equivalent to the upper portion of the Cincinnatian Series. Anyone like seafood?

“As long as Zelensky is president, no one should count on us giving up territory. He will not sign away territory,” Yermak told The Atlantic by phone from Kyiv. “The constitution prohibits this. Nobody can do that unless they want to go against the Ukrainian constitution and the Ukrainian people.”

Chicagoans did things that we in the Seattle region and beyond can - and *must* - copy to defeat ICE.
We cannot just defeat ICE in the streets. We must defeat ICE in our minds, city councils, and police forces.

‘Remigration’ is a term that comes out of the European far right. Its use by the DHS account is a sign of democratic and epistemic collapse

lol, someone blocked me for saying no more impeachments until we hold the Senate. It is not my fault if you don't understand an impeachment versus a Senate conviction.

Because just enough voters gave control of the entire federal government to the GOP and their leader and placed Democrats in the minority.

Sickens me too. But we can start reversing it in 2026.
Will somebody please explain to my like I’m 5, how the hell can our elected politicians allow trump to do what he’s doing to America?
I’ve been fortunate to live 80 years in America. It sickens me to see what he has done.

The WWII equivalent of 2024's "uncommitted" would be "Sure, Hitler is an evil incarnate mass murderer who will destroy civilization, but the Allies aren't PERFECT, and I'm too pure to support them even if it means the world must burn."

Trump during his Thanksgiving call with service members: "We're ordered a lot of Coast Guard cutters. Brand new, beautiful, the best machines in the world. I'm a looks person. I wanted the hull to be perfect. You know, I sort of redesigned the hull a little bit. The hulls. But we ordered a lot."

As always, Wynton Marsalis and Canadian Brass provided the soundtrack to my Thanksgiving cooking. They will now help me kick off Leftovers Season, the most wonderful time of the year.

NEW: ICE’s policy of mass detaining immigrants w pending deportation proceedings has led to an avalanche of rejections in court.

More than 220 judges — including 23 Trump appointees — have called it an illegal distortion of long-settled law. www.politico.com/news/2025/11...

Nigel Farage asked about Reform MS Laura Anne Jones (who the Senedd Commissioner found had used a racist term in a staff WhatsApp chat in August 2023 while discussing TikTok writing: “No chinky spies for me.”)
"Well, she used a word that colloquially, probably was meant in a nice way 20 years ago."
