Dinosaurs of the latest Campanian Cerro del Pueblo Formation, Coahuila, Mexico. All the species are distinct from those found to the north in Montana and Alberta. Lots of dinosaurs waiting to be described and discovered from Mexico. It'll be exciting to see what emerges.
The moon slowly spirals away from us over time. 4 billion years ago the moon was much closer and about three times as large in the sky as it is today. Eclipses would have been much more common since the larger disc would be more likely to come between the Earth and the Sun.

3/ They find a way to give free rein to their cruelty, to attack, to treat others cruelly and viciously. *And they find allies to cheer them on* who also believe they are on the side of all that is true and good.
1/ One of most important things I've learned: Severe personality problems find *camouflage.* No one thinks "I'm a sadist" or "I'm a malignant narcissist." They find a belief system/social group that validates their most hateful, destructive impulses & construes them as virtues.
@bendreyfuss Having seen grown adults literally mobbed to death by harassment on social media, I find the thesis that social media can cause severe harm to young people with far less life experience, learned resilience, and fewer coping mechanisms to be highly believable

Something I didn't realize when I was a kid: institutions can decay. Institutions seem so permanent, but it turns out to be very easy for them to drift from their original mission. The ACLU, the NYT, the Better Business Bureau, the ADL, NPR, none of them are what they were.

recent american protests (riots) are especially troubling to me in the sense that they are deliberately undemocratic strategically, they seek to undermine decisions made via normal systems of civic participation by the coercive behavior of a minority
@NickLongrich yes but what I realized when I looked into this is that it probably isn't a single unlikely event like that, but rather a long sequence of relatively small pieces of good luck.
#FossilFriday @AMNH. While the dinos are fun, today it’s the fossil mammals turn. Simpson (1942) wrote this Eocene Phenacodus specimen was one of the oldest records of fossil collecting by humans. Specimen recovered from 1,000 year old archaeological site in northern New Mexico.
Bullies pick on the kindest people never other bullies. As I tell my kids, bullies don't feel great about themselves so when they do it, it's not about you (or the person they are going after). It is about them and their personal situation, so try hard to not take it personally.
@NickLongrich That’s just how blueberries work
This always fascinates me...imagine a wolf moon three times as large...
The moon slowly spirals away from us over time. 4 billion years ago the moon was much closer and about three times as large in the sky as it is today. Eclipses would have been much more common since the larger disc would be more likely to come between the Earth and the Sun.
The prestige economy of academia — which rewards you for publishing books or articles read by several dozen people, but not public books or articles read by thousands or tens of thousands — is part of the crisis of the humanities. It’s both an intellectual AND a labor issue. 1/
Academia has a real problem when books published at the largest publishers in the world aren't considered "academic" enough for tenure, but books published at tiny academic presses are. Who are we writing for? Each other?
You're not worthy. You're not enough and you never will be. There's time left on the clock but your strength is waning, your back's almost touching the mat, you won't get up after the next one. And what's the point anyway? The good things, they just end. The people you love…

another distinction between the trickster hero and the modern hero is that the trickster acts — schemes, plans, plots — but the hero reacts. the hero does not set out on their journey without being called to it. the trickster does it because they want to.
@thecaptain_nemo hands are the key, which coevolved with our brains to better manipulate the world, creating and using tools
Nomeclatural note: following Longrich et al.'s description of Khinjaria, we should refer the two branches of the Plioplatecarpinae (plioplatecarpine) informally as plioplatecarpins & selmasaurins. Satisfying, as it follows a proposal I made in '88 when I described Selmasaurus.
