The Japanese edition of my #AncientSeaReptiles has arrived, and it's great. It's a new version for 2025, so contains changes and images not yet featured in English editions. It has great design features (like the art on the cover boards). I'll be bringing a copy to #DinoConUk :)

Out of date anatomically in terms of what we know about dinosaurs now, but Wayne Barlowe’s paleoart was incredible to me as a kid, it spurred my imagination like nothing else. The colors are so striking on each of these pieces, they hold such a primal mood.

Alvarezsaurs were very bird-like dinosaurs, many possessing bizarre, stubby claw hands. Despite several decades of study, we still don’t know why these dinosaurs evolved such unusual arms. My latest for Smithsonian. 🧪
Small, Stubby-Armed Dinosaurs Have Confounded Paleontologists. Are Answers Finally Within Reach?
Recent discoveries about an alvarezsaur called Manipulonyx have drawn renewed attention to this group of bird-like, clawed creatures and the mysteries around their anatomy and behavior

Transferred all the information from Tumblr to a Google Doc, so anyone who doesn't have a Tumblr account can now read through the whole thing!
I also updated quite a bit of information too.
I hope it will help somebody!

I've been playing this delightful home designer/picross game on my switch and loving it! They've put a lot of care into the picross controls and settings so it's really nice as a picross expert!
The puzzles are often different sizes (and sometimes weird like 18x12) which is very refreshing!
