Archaeology field school students from @VCLatVCU visited Friday. They 3D-scanned a few artifacts in our collection, and we put them to work assisting us with a cleaning of our ham case. #fieldtripfriday #futuremuseumprofessionals

News! A Master's student I co-supervised (Marta) just finished her thesis, and did an amazing job! The accepting reviews also came back on a huge pterosaur paper linked to her research. Brace yourself for new research on the Late Jurassic Pterosaurs in the coming months 🦇🦴

"As an editorial cartoonist, my job is to hold powerful people and institutions accountable. For the first time, my editor prevented me from doing that critical job. So I have decided to leave the Post." anntelnaes.substack.com/p/why-im-quitt…

Despite being a year without landmark paleo docus, 2024 is a great year in terms of paleoart. Of all non-avian dinosaur-related finds in 2024 (newly-exhibited specimens + new papers), AT LEAST 98 feature accompanying paleoart (in-paper or in local/international news release)!

I roughly scaled Anna’s giant ground sloth sculptures to the same scale with respect to each other. From left to right: Eremotherium, Megalonyx, Paramylodon, and Nothrotheriops #FossilFriday

Our year-long investigation found that more than 3,100 children died at boarding schools between 1828 and 1970 and that more than 800 of those students are buried in cemeteries at or near the schools they attended. Here’s how we found our evidence. wapo.st/3DnIr9q

Everybody in the US (probably elsewhere as well) is doom scrolling the election. Engagement for non-election tweets is non-existent. Seems a good time to post this rare platinum print, hand-colored, of the Caracol at #ChichenItza taken in the early 1900s by Edward H. Thompson.
