Xiphactinus render [ #paleoart | #fish | #xiphactinus | #3Dart | #art ]

I need everyone to be crystal clear that this is a continuation of RFK and the wellness community’s *obsession* with the elimination of the disabled and the chronically ill. They are disgusted by us, they view illness and disability as weakness, and they believe in using eugenics to disappear us.

Every headline is like "Trump Appoints The Biggest Piece Of Shit You've Ever Heard Of To Head Up The New Office Of We Hate Trans People Soooo Much" and the first line is something like "Democrats valiantly perform interpretive dance to express displeasure just before confirming."

ice wife on the brain tonight 💗

Please read this thread!!

let me say that this is the classic “just asking questions” approach to delegitimizing the achievements of black people. and critically, you don’t even have to be a black person who talks about race. simply being black to these people means you are “obsessed with race.”

tip my friend for its birthday or I will eat you 😈

“Why aren’t people protesting?” Bitch we showed up for three weeks at children’s hospital and they caved and kids are getting their gender affirming care now from *checks notes* protests

In case anyone is still wondering if Facebook is garbage: Yes, but More.

A bunch of Dimorphodon at different stages of their life.

here's today's #Paleostream sketches!!! today we sketched Eryops, Plateosaurus, Mahuidacursor, and Koreaceratops

“We had to erase trans people or we couldn’t get our federal funding” Fuck the federal funding. You fight, you sue, you do not become complicit in our mass erasure. We are all in this together, and we all go down together. I will not allow us to be jettisoned or erased.

another great example along with Wired and Teen Vogue of how real journalism these days can be a lot braver at outlets where no one is trying to get in good with the White House press secretary they’re out here with us, reporting on what’s happening to us all, instead of trying to get inside access

drew another goyle. might make this a more complete illustration later

This #paleoart shows 3 views of the Devonian brachiopod fossil Paraspirifer bownockeri; one is reconstructed w/ some epifauna and boreholes. These are fun to find; they're an impressive size (for brachiopods). I had an excellent specimen to use as a reference for this painting. #FossilFriday #sciart

Posting my embroidery so people can find me... 🐯 #embroidery #handembroidery

The Night Mare, 54"x46" oil on canvas. 2017. Model Olive Glass.

It's not the Not Knowing that bothers me. Not knowing this is great because you can learn! It's the unwillingness to consider that maybe turkeys DON'T drown if they look up while it's raining. (And that's often indicative of a mindset that will be a Problem about bigger, important things as well)

Resistance vibes. This illustration is Hierophant Medusa done for D&D The Book of Many Things. It’s also a bit of an aspirational self portrait since I used myself as reference. Trying to tap into this energy right now. www.joannabarnum.com/shop/hieroph...

I think i finally found my biggest personal pet peeve and it's educated adult humans clinging desperately to kindergarten-level animal stereotypes. Themselves usually based on sociopolitical cartoons from hundreds of years ago with no basis in reality. Or worse, Aristotle.

Last big weekend push, let's make Black History! Prosper with Dragons is more than a thrilling card game. We're making space for Black kids to see themselves flying on dragons and for others to see them thriving! Please share widely and loudly, let's hit $10k! www.kickstarter.com/projects/115...

I was listening to Harry Belafonte's hit "Day-O," wherein he notes "a beautiful bunch of ripe banana/Hide the deadly black tarantula" The obvious question: it's probably not tarantulas, they're terrestrial, so what kind of spider IS Harry Belafonte singing about? www.youtube.com/watch?v=H5dp...

Being a palaeoartist and an active palaeontologist, is a blessing and a curse. You can create your own artworks to accompany your research, but, you don't get paid for it, it's additional workload you have to quickly squeeze into your schedule, your artistic mishaps will be scrutinised more.

Whenever I post about the difficulties of being a creative someone has to boldly say I’m doing this all wrong, I don’t work hard enough, or something else Maybe. Maybe not. But this industry IS driving people out with low wages and devaluing of what we do, and that is harmful to all creativity
