You didn’t think you were just getting one dinosaur article from me today, did you?

In another for NatGeo, I dig into how dinosaur “mummies” are preserved - and why there are probably many more exceptional dinosaur fossils out there than we ever dreamed. 🧪
Here's how dinosaur ‘mummies’ are helping scientists solve fossil mysteries
A new study sheds light on how these reptiles become “mummies” and paints a picture of what these ancient animals looked like.

I had a specific scene in mind today but i decided to instead prove a point to my brain 💫 it keeps being mean to me when i KNOW i can do this.
It went well enough i let myself get sloppier; im not perfect but im good enough, brain 🥹

Ooops the stars aligned (or misaligned) and I'm opening commissions for custom ceramics! Would you like a loaf tray of your pet? A babushcat? For me to remake a piece I made in the past that you missed out on? Or do you have a different idea? Email me and we can discuss it!

Take a few minutes to appreciate Drew Struzan creating the original artwork for THE PHANTOM MENACE. Truly a master at work.

Me: I just don't understand why I can't just out-think my anxiety and emotions and simply react and respond in the most ideal way every single time and never feel bad

One surprisingly heartbreaking thing about living in these times is seeing young people who finally made it to college/graduated/got a job/achieved the thing they’ve worked so hard for… just watch their opportunities disappear. And it’s even worse because absolutely none of this had to be happening.

You weren’t “low-maintenance”.

You were starving yourself of care.

You weren’t “resilient”.

You were burned out.

You weren’t “bad at intimacy”.

You were forced to perform it.

They thought you didn’t want connection.

But you needed it more than anyone.

That’s autism.
Just because you can't now doesn't change what you have done.

Hey.

I’m proud of you.

Take a break, get some water and a snack for floor time.

You’re doing great, sweetie.

Love you.

This year has been a rollercoaster, y'all; after an unexpected warehouse move & inventory shuffling, all while still working on multiple active projects & navigating the state of commerce (& tarriffs 🙄), we're happy to have our storefront back up and running!

Our team has put in so much work 💪
With new adventures on the horizon, we're ecstatic to announce that our storefront has officially REOPENED! 🎉

✨Time for more lizards and more mechs!✨

The charity fundraiser for the #AACR continues, so if you'd like to stick tape to me, get a silly sketch, or get art of your OC? For a donation, you can! (Or, order me to *not* paint!)

Live 1515 EST. :) (Nowish!)
